Election funding disclosures

The NAOF receives advance disclosures, actual election funding disclosures and post-election disclosures related to election campaign funding:

The advance disclosure is voluntary and contains a plan for election campaign expenses and funding.
The election funding disclosure is submitted only by elected candidates and alternate members.
The post-election disclosure is submitted only by the elected candidates and alternate members with outstanding election funding loans. The obligation to submit a post-election disclosure only applies to parliamentary elections and elections to the European Parliament.

Data sets

The NAOF publishes the election funding disclosures in CSV format. Four data files are published on each election:

funding rows for advance disclosures
funding sources and expenses itemised in advance disclosures
funding rows for election funding disclosures
funding sources and expenses itemised in election funding disclosures.

Explore the data sets

The advance disclosures of the candidates who were not elected or appointed as alternate members will remain available online for 30 days after the confirmation of the election results. On that date, the information will also be removed from CSV files.

The UTF-8 is used as the character set and semicolon as the separator. If the discloser has used a semicolon in text fields, this will cause information to move to wrong columns. If you open the data file using a spreadsheet, and such letters as ä, ö or å are not displayed correctly, you should first save the file on your device and then open it using the spreadsheet import function.

The information is published in a public data network as laid down in section 12 of the Act on a Candidate’s Election Funding (273/2009)Avautuu uuteen välilehteen. Even though the information is publicly available, provisions of the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679Avautuu uuteen välilehteen and the Personal Data Act (1050/2018)Avautuu uuteen välilehteen may apply to collecting, recording and processing the information in other ways. The information may be personal data referred to in these statutes, in which case they must be processed in accordance with the above statutes and they may constitute a register referred to in the statutes. The controller is responsible for ensuring that the personal data is processed in accordance with these statutes and that the statutes applying to personal data are observed.
