<title>Number of enterprises grew significantly in 2007</title>
<link>http://www.stat.fi/til/syr/2007/01/syr_2007_01_2008-11-28_tie_001_en.html</link>
<description>According to Statistics Finland, 308,917 enterprises operated in Finland in 2007. The number grew by five per cent from the previous year. However, the actual number of enterprises was altogether 23 per cent, or 58,500, higher than in 2006 because the quoted number also contains 45,681 agricultural enterprises which were added to the Business Register when its information basis widened and which were previously excluded from these statistics. The statistics now include agricultural enterprises whose income from agriculture exceeded the statistical threshold of the EUR 9,636. In the early years of the 2000s the number of enterprises grew by an average of just short of one per cent per year; in 2004 and 2005 the growth was just under two per cent and in 2006 good three per cent.</description>
