Turnover of large enterprises grew in September
According to Statistics Finland's preliminary data, the seasonally adjusted turnover of large enterprises grew by 0.5 per cent in September 2017 compared with August. In August, seasonally adjusted turnover grew by 0.2 per cent, while in July, turnover was 1.1 per cent higher than in the month before.
Seasonally adjusted change in the turnover of large enterprises from the previous month, %
The unadjusted turnover of large enterprises grew by 4.3 per cent in September 2017 compared with September 2016. The turnover of large enterprises grew by 6.6 per cent in January to September from one year ago.
Annual change in the turnover of large enterprises, %
The turnover estimate of large enterprises is based on a sample formed of 2,000 enterprises with the most significant turnover in manufacturing, construction, trade and other service industries. Excluded from the statistics are enterprises engaged in primary production, and bank and insurance activities.
The enterprises described in the statistics make up nearly 70 per cent of the turnover of all enterprises operating in Finland, represent more than one-half of the investments made and employ good 40 per cent of the personnel of all enterprises.
The data can be used for short-term monitoring of development in business activities and the market. The economic situation of the whole enterprise sector cannot be assessed solely based on these statistics, because the economic development of smaller enterprises may differ from large enterprises.
More detailed data on the development of various industries are published monthly on the home pages of business trend indicators.
