According to Statistics Finland's Total statistics on income distribution, income differentials continued growing slightly in 2011. The value of the Gini coefficient describing income differentials was 28.5, which is 0.3 percentage points more than in the previous year and 0.9 percentage points higher than in 2009. In the lowest-income decile of the population the growth of income in real terms went up by a couple of tenths of a per cent. In the highest-income decile of the population, the increase in income was 2.2 per cent. In the top-earning percentage of the population, the annual income growth was seven per cent in 2011.

Description: The total statistics on income distribution describe the annual income of register households and their distribution especially from the regional perspective. The statistics depict the amount of income and its formation from different income sources when taking taxation and income transfers into consideration. Because it is a question of total data formed annually from administrative registers covering the whole population, it is also possible to make dynamic income distribution analyses (e.g. permanent low income).
