Yes.
By Finnish Law this is possible.
If it's a Sole Trader you can currently find it @ http://www.ytj.fi (not required by the law)
If it's a General partnership or Limited Partnership you can find it in the PRH (National Board of Patents and Registries), which is in Helsinki.
If it's a PLC you can get it from HEX or their close associates, but it will cost some money. The amount of money depends on how many owners it has, but this is too expensive to be useful to us. Ten largest owners are known publicly. They're usually Institutional Investors so that's a bit not interesting
If it's a LTD, just go to their headquarters and ask for current ownership data. If you make the trip you're entiteled to get photo-copies for what photo-copies, like cost, man. The official location of the HQ is publicly known and currently available @ http://www.ytj.fi (not required by the law) or PRH.

Just today came the news that the law might be changed so that it's impossible to find out who own LTDs and only those owners of PLCs that have over 0,1% of shares are known, which would of course be bad for the openness of the economy Juxo 10:09 May 7, 2003 (EEST)
This just in today too:
The newspaper that raported it discussed some sides of this new motion towards a more Closed economy. The argument used to drive this motion forward was that it is to protect investors from spam. Also the point was made that foreign investors have anonymity at the moment.
Sorry for the inconvecience.
