Finland’s economy grew largely in line with earlier projections in the third quarter, confirming the Nordic nation is on a path to recovery that’s expected to pick up pace next year.

Gross domestic product expanded 0.3% in the quarter through September from the previous three-month period, when it grew a revised 0.1%, Statistics Finland said on Friday, citing data adjusted for seasonal swings. The third-quarter expansion was slightly smaller than the 0.4% growth indicated by a flash estimate earlier this month.
