Additional
Information
Banking in Finland is a simple
and efficient process. For example, you may be surprised
to receive an active ATM (cash machine) card
during the short process of opening an account.
Finns use the least physical cash per capita
in the world; your ATM card can be used in place of cash
almost anywhere, withdrawing funds directly from your credit or debit account.
The need for a personal visit to the bank
is further reduced by the ease of online banking and the
omnipresence of Solo and similar machines at which you can
pay bills etc.
Finnish Banks
Of the 343 banks operating in Finland, the
three largest banking groups - Nordea Bank Finland, the OP-Pohjola Group and Sampo - represent more than 80 per cent of
the deposit and credit markets. There are
also finance companies, mutual fund companies, and life assurance
companies.
