Some (mostly larger) Finnish companies such as Nokia now use English as their corporate language, but most Finnish companies use only Oy in the company name.
Julkinen osakeyhtiö
Julkinen osakeyhtiö (pl. julkiset osakeyhtiöt) means "public stock company" and is abbreviated to oyj (pronounced [oː yː jiː]). A julkinen osakeyhtiö can be listed on the Helsinki Stock Exchange. The term's Finland-Swedish equivalent is abp (publikt aktiebolag). An oyj may be called a public limited company or public company in English and may use the abbreviation PLC in the company name, for example.
