The Insurance Court dismissed the appeal against the Pensions Board's decision regarding a Finnish citizen working in a US-based company. The court found that the company was not a Finnish enterprise because it was owned equally by three Finnish corporations but operated under US jurisdiction. Consequently, the individual fell outside the scope of the Finnish Insurance Act, and the original decision was upheld.
