HS: Finnish government set to cut income tax especially for high-income earners

THE ADJUSTMENTS to income taxation set forth in the government programme will result in the greatest cuts for high-income earners, indicate a provisional calculation made for Helsingin Sanomat by Mikael Kirkko-Jaakkola, the chief economist at the Taxpayers’ Association of Finland.

The calculation is based on not only the measures laid out in the government programme but also the underlying data published by the Ministry of Finance.
