Finnvera’s Half-Year Report 2021

Finnvera's domestic financing is still at a higher level than usual. The Finnvera Group’s result for January–June 2021 showed a profit after an unprofitable year 2020. The profit for the first half of 2021 was EUR 65 million. The profitable result is due to the stabilisation in the credit loss provision development caused by the coronavirus over the first half of the year.
