Sijoituksilla

Sijoituksilla is the instrumental plural form of the Finnish noun sijoitus, meaning investment. It is used to indicate the means or resources provided by investments, and it often appears in financial, economic, and policy texts to describe how funding is obtained or deployed.

Grammatically, sijoitus forms as sijoitus (singular), sijoitukset (plural), and sijoituksilla (instrumental/adessive plural, “with investments” or “by means of investments”). In Finnish, the instrumental case (-lla/-llä) marks the method, instrument, or accompanying factor in a sentence. Therefore sijoituksilla denotes the plural means by which an action is carried out or resources allocated.

Usage notes and contexts: Sijoituksilla is most natural when emphasizing investments as a financing mechanism or source of funding. It can appear in discussions of project finance, corporate growth, or public policy where multiple investments contribute to an outcome. For example, a text might state that “Sijoituksilla on keskeinen rooli julkisen sektorin infrastruktuurin rahoituksessa” to highlight the role of investments in financing infrastructure. Another example is “Hankkeen rahoitus koostuu useista sijoituksilla kerätyistä varoista,” which describes funding derived from multiple investments. In general, sijoituksilla functions as a way to attribute funding or resources to investments rather than to other sources.
