Orpo government policies took 80 euros a month from the poorest
Published
A study by Terveyden ja hyvinvoinnin laitos (THL), the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare, finds the largest cash losses hit some groups hardest. The Orpo government policies took 80 euros a month from Finland's poorest people. The study was first reported by Yle in Finland on 11 November 2026.
The losses are measured in cash, so they affect what households can spend each month. The study names the poorest people in Finland as those who lost the most. Government policy changes can therefore hit household budgets directly.
This article gives only the main figures from the study. Readers who want more detail can read the original Yle article.
