What this value means
STRUCTURAL NOTE: Finland has NO national policy rate. Suomen Pankki (the Bank of Finland) has had no independent monetary-policy competence since Finland joined the euro on 1 January 1999; monetary policy for the euro area is set by the ECB Governing Council under Art. 127-133 TFEU and the ESCB/ECB Statute, and the Governor of Suomen Pankki sits on that Council as one voting member, not as a national rate-setter. The value served is the euro-area-wide ECB deposit facility rate (DFR), which applies identically in all 20 euro-area members, not a Finland-specific rate. On 11 June 2026 the Governing Council raised all three key rates by 25 basis points with effect from 17 June 2026: deposit facility 2.25%, main refinancing operations (MRO) 2.40%, marginal lending facility 2.65%. The DFR is served here because since the 18 March 2024 framework change the ECB steers short-term money-market rates through the DFR and narrowed the MRO-DFR spread to 15bp; the MRO rate (2.40%) remains the headline 'refinancing' rate cited by some sources. No Governing Council monetary-policy meeting fell between 17 June 2026 and the last_confirmed date, so 2.25% is still in force.
