Information on target markets and geopolitics

Does your company need information concerning the target country, recent developments in its regulatory environment or the market opportunities available? Do you need an expert analysis of the geopolitical situation and the political risks involved? Finnish embassies across the world are familiar with the business environments of their respective host countries, and they also produce analyses of an individual country’s internal developments and international relations. It is our job to share information about identified market opportunities and sales leads with Finnish-based companies. We also provide geopolitical and geoeconomic analyses.

Market opportunities and developments in regulatory environment

The Finnish missions abroad will share country-specific information and give informal coaching geared to the specific needs of your company. Country outlooks, drafted for the Finnish companies , are published by the Ministry’s network of missions on the Market opportunities website of Team Finland. The website also carries information about concrete market opportunities and sales leads. In addition, you may make inquiries with Finland’s missions abroad concerning the target country’s regulatory developments and business culture, including their practices and operating methods.

Geopolitics and political risks

As part of the trade promotion services, the Ministry organises a range of events for companies on a regular basis. Its missions abroad produce geopolitical and economic assessments and reviews. Companies may ask for up-to-date assessments and/or agree on a meeting with the Ministry’s trade promotion services or with its missions in the target countries.

Responsible business conduct

The Ministry for Foreign Affairs and its missions abroad will assist you in matters related to responsible business conduct in international markets.
