Finnvera, Tekes and ELY Centres now exchange information on clients

Published date

Three providers of public enterprise services – Finnvera, Tekes, and the Centres for Economic Development, Transport and the Environment (ELY Centres) – have begun to exchange information on their clients. The goal is to improve, speed up and harmonise the services provided for enterprises. At the same time, there will be less overlapping work in the various organisations.

The exchange of information between Finnvera, Tekes and the ELY Centres applies to strictly restricted data and takes place through an electronic system developed specifically for this purpose. Among the information exchanged are data on contact persons, the client’s service history, the support granted, financing, risk classification, and on the client’s adjusted financial statements.

All exchange of information is based on confidentiality and secrecy. The bank secrecy pertaining to information obtained from Finnvera applies likewise to all recipients of information.

The Act on the Customer Data System for Enterprise Services entered into force on 15 December 2010. The Act enables public providers of financing and other public actors to widen their scope of cooperation when sharing customer data.

Tekes, Finnvera and the ELY Centres are included in the MEE Group, which consists of the Ministry of Employment and the Economy and over 30 organisations under it.
