toimijayhdistelminä

Toimijayhdistelminä refers to a concept in Finnish law and business organization, specifically related to the Finnish Co-operatives Act. It describes a situation where two or more co-operatives merge or combine their operations to form a new co-operative. This process is governed by the provisions of the Co-operatives Act, which ensures that the new entity continues to operate as a co-operative, maintaining the principles and values of co-operation.

The merger or combination can occur for various reasons, such as improving efficiency, expanding services, or adapting to market changes. The process involves several legal steps, including the preparation of a merger plan, approval by the co-operatives' members, and registration with the Finnish Business Registration Centre. The new co-operative must also comply with the requirements set forth in the Co-operatives Act, which includes adhering to the principles of democracy, equality, equity, and solidarity.

Toimijayhdistelminä is an important aspect of the Finnish co-operative sector, as it allows co-operatives to adapt and grow while preserving their cooperative identity. It is a testament to the flexibility and resilience of the co-operative model in Finland, which has been a cornerstone of the country's economic and social development.
