Finland's government wants to generate cash from a part of its equity holdings to fund investments in start-ups in digital and platform businesses.
The new investment vehicle, Vake, is being readied to manage assets worth about €3 billion ($3.7 billion), according to Jyrki Knuutinen, who started as the director of the Finnish government state ownership steering department last month.
