Promoting the interests of the financial industry
The Federation of Finnish Financial Services represents banks, insurers, finance houses, securities dealers and financial employers operating in Finland. Its members also include employee pension, motor liability and workers compensation insurers, all three providers of statutory insurance lines that account for much of Finnish social security.
Practically all Finnish citizens and companies are therefore customers in our member companies.

The Federation of Finnish Financial Services was founded in early 2007, when the Finnish Bankers' Association, the Federation of Finnish Insurance Companies, the Finnish Finance Houses Association and the Employers' Association of Finnish Financial Institutions joined forces. The Finnish Association of Securities Dealers followed and joined the Federation in early 2009. The Finnish Association of Mutual Funds has been a member since 1 September 2009.
