Oyj stands for Julkinen osakeyhtiö (public limited company), a company type abbreviation.

Finnish public limited company, whose shares may be offered to the public and listed on Nasdaq Helsinki. The suffix "Oyj" (or "Abp" in Swedish) follows the company name.

Example: Nokia Oyj and Kone Oyj are listed on Nasdaq Helsinki.

Usage notes

A Finnish public company needs minimum share capital of €80,000. Bilingual names often combine forms, as in "Oyj Abp." In English materials, a company such as Nokia Oyj may call itself Nokia Corporation, but the legal name keeps the Finnish suffix.
