In a significant demographic shift, Finland has seen a substantial increase in its working-age population, largely attributed to a rise in net immigration, as reported by Henna Busk, Senior Economist at Pellervo Economic Research (PTT). These insights follow the release of new statistics by Statistics Finland on Thursday.
The preliminary population statistics for 2023 reveal that nearly 72,000 individuals migrated to Finland from abroad, marking the highest number recorded in consecutive years.
