The former Finnish government proposed changes to legislation concerning Finnish social and healthcare

services as well as regional governments. Preparations for the implementation of this reform were

discontinued on 8 March 2019.

The new government appointed after the parliamentary election in April 2019 is likely to seek to reinitiate the

process to enact a reform in respect of the social and healthcare system or regional governments. However,

at this stage, there are no proposals for legislation.

Consequently, at this point in time MuniFin is not in a position to evaluate what the content of such potential

reform might be or when it might be implemented. The outcome of the reform could have a negative effect on

MuniFin’s lending volumes and financial results, yet the extent of such effects is impossible to estimate at this

point in time.

More information concerning the status of the reform can be found at: http://alueuudistus.fi/en/frontpage.
