Finland's Finance Sector Association Finanssiala ry calls for including in the government program a plan to streamline post-death administration by enabling electronic processing through legislative changes, with funding for the project. A designated lead authority should coordinate cross-agency collaboration, with Finanssiala ry included as the industry representative. The proposed system would consolidate necessary information into a single digital service, linking the tax administration, the Digital and Population Data Agency, banks, and insurance companies, saving relatives from heavy paperwork and making estate settlements more efficient. The initiative builds on a 2019 open ecosystem project led by DVV and Verohallinto to address current paper-based processes and owner-responsibility issues.}
