HS: Finnish youth are investing more than ever before, even more than Swedes

FINNISH YOUTH are investing increasingly in funds and shares, reports Helsingin Sanomat.

Statistics Finland revealed last month that 29.5 per cent of 16–24-year-olds in the country owned shares in funds or listed companies in 2021, signalling an over 13-percentage-point increase from 2023. A bit over a quarter of the age group had investments in funds and over 10 per cent in listed companies.
