Editorial : Economic policy must live in two time frames at once

Abstract

Economic policy in Finland must now find a way to live in two time periods at once. While we are currently combating an acute crisis, we must at the same time direct our thinking strongly towards the economic challenges of the post-crisis years. It is essential to both support businesses, households and economic recovery, while at the same time strengthening the conditions for sustainable, balanced economic growth and improved employment in the years ahead.
