According to the International Directory of Company Histories, OY
(Osakeyhtiot)(there is an umlaut above the last o) is an abbreviation
for a form of company incorporation in Finland, but they don't give an
English approximation (a major flaw here). See if there is a Finnish
Consulate or trade office you can reach. This exhausts my Finnish
resources!
