I don't know about Finland as well as I know about Sweden, but here in Sweden, we don't really do outright bribes.

They are far too messy...

Instead, what happens is that a government official approves Company A for a large contract even though Company B had a batter and cheaper option. The reason is stated as somethibg nebulous and hard to disprove.

Then, a year or two later, the same government official resigns from office, and Company A quickly hires them as a coordination consultant between the company and the government.

And since the person has highly specific knowledge about not only the government, but the contract as well as contacts in the government, the company has a reason to offer a very high compenstation for the consultancy without it looking suspicious.

The person is retained by the company untill the "debt" is paid and the person leaves the company.

No bribe is paid, just a fair compensation to a consultant with highly relevant skills.
