When it comes to Nordic countries with sovereign wealth funds, you must be confusing Finland with Norway. Finland is not listed here [0], and the country has never had the sort of abundant natural resources that would make it a powerhouse in this regard. Sure, Finland does have forests, but the vacillations in the paper market in recent years and competition from other countries has hurt the economy, not boosted it.

You are welcome to do your own research as to the lack of a sovereign wealth fund to power the Finnish welfare state. But the fact you get Finland's economy very wrong should already be clear to you from the downvotes you have attracted.
