The Finland Monthly Brief is an independent research publication catering to a global audience that needs to keep abreast of political, economic- and social affairs of Finland. The brief provides insight and analysis of Finnish current affairs and is designed as a resource to understand the complexities and subtleties of the country while keeping on top of the latest policy news and appointments.

Diplomats tell us that they base their reports to home capitals on our analysis, helping them to be efficient at getting the job done and foreign executives say it gives them a better understanding of the country they are operating in.

Published once a month, the Finland Monthly Brief offers analysis of the issues that shape the political-and economic climate in Finland, i.a. national politics, economy, security- and defence, energy and geo-political issues affecting Finland. Our insightful analytical reports give you the opportunity to understand not just the outcomes but also the forces in Finnish policy-making driving the outcomes.

  1. A full page calendar of upcoming Finnish and international events over the next three months
  2. Policy news and Finland in Numbers
  3. A people section with new appointments
