Financial accounts

Producer:	Statistics Finland
Data:	Latest release: Households net financial assets in strong decline in the third quarter of 2011 31 Jan 2012 In the third quarter of 2011, households net financial assets decreased by EUR 10.3 billion from the previous quarter. A fall of corresponding size was last seen when the financial crisis was peaking in the last quarter of 2008. There were two main underlying reasons for the decline. Households borrowing was growing steadily while at the same time share prices continued to fall. Households net financial assets, or the difference between financial assets and liabilities, amounted to EUR 87.5 billion at the end of the third quarter of 2011. These data derive from Statistics Finlands financial accounts statistics. Next release: 30 Apr 2012
