On 9 July 2013, the Council adopted a recommendation on Finland’s national reform programme for 2013 and delivered its opinion on Finland’s updated stability programme for 2012-2016. On 15 November 2013, in line with Regulation (EU) No 473/2013, the Commission presented its opinion on Finland's draft budgetary plan for 2014.

On 13 November 2013, the Commission adopted the Annual Growth Survey, marking the start of the 2014 European Semester of economic policy coordination. On the same day on the basis of Regulation (EU) No 1176/2011, the Commission adopted the Alert Mechanism Report, in which it identified Finland as one of the Member States for which an in-depth review would be carried out.

On 5 March 2014, the Commission published the results of its in-depth review for Finland, under Article 5 of Regulation (EU) No 1176/2011. The Commission's analysis leads it to conclude that Finland continues to experience macroeconomic imbalances, which require monitoring and policy action. In particular, its weak export performance in recent years, driven by industrial restructuring and by cost and non-cost competitiveness factors, deserves continued attention.

On 17 April 2014, Finland submitted its 2014 national reform programme and its 2014 stability programme. In order to take account of their interlinkages, the two programmes have been assessed at the same time.
