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. Access: ecb.europa.eu serves the full key-rates table as static HTML and loaded cleanly. ECB UPDATE (verified 2026-08-22): the Governing Council HELD on 23-24 July 2026 - deposit facility 2.25%, MRO 2.40%, marginal lending 2.65%, all unchanged and in effect since 17 June 2026 ('decided to keep the three key ECB interest rates unchanged'). Next monetary-policy meeting: 9-10 September 2026 (Berlin; decision 14:15 CET on the 10th), then 28-29 Oct and 16-17 Dec. A change takes effect from the start of the following reserve maintenance period - this series uses the EFFECTIVE date.
