Local special circumstances: Finland's small market size and limited number of domestic investment opportunities have pushed local investment banks to explore international markets for growth. This has resulted in a focus on expanding services beyond the domestic market and seeking opportunities in neighboring countries and globally. Additionally, the country's strong regulatory environment and stable economy have positioned Finland as an attractive destination for foreign investors, further driving the growth of the Investment Banking sector.

Underlying macroeconomic factors: The overall economic stability and low interest rate environment in Finland have created a favorable climate for investment activities. Additionally, the country's strong technological infrastructure and highly educated workforce have supported the growth of innovative financial services in the Investment Banking sector. Moreover, Finland's strategic location within the European Union provides access to a larger market and facilitates cross-border transactions, contributing to the development of the Investment Banking market in the country.
