Funding and operating expences

The Financial Supervisory Authority finances its activities mainly by levying supervision and processing fees, which totaled EUR 42.8 million in 2024. In addition, a contribution of 5% is made by the Bank of Finland to the Authority’s funding costs. 

The Board of the Financial Supervisory Authority approves our budget, which is finally confirmed by the Board of the Bank of Finland. Total expense budget for 2025 is EUR 51.5 million. The majority of the expenses for our activities are composed of staff expenses, accounting for some EUR 30.6 million of the budget.

Other expenses amount to about EUR 20.9 million in the budget for 2025. IT and office premises costs make up most of other expenses.
