A coil-type electronic component having a coil inside or on the surface of a base material, characterized in that the base material of the coil-type electronic component is constituted by a group of soft magnetic alloy grains whose main ingredients are iron, silicate and chromium, and that an oxide layer is formed on the surface of each soft magnetic alloy grain, where the oxide layer is produced as a result of oxidization of the grain and has more chromium than the alloy grain, and this oxide layer has a two-layer structure constituted by an inner layer whose main ingredient is chromium oxide and an outer layer whose main ingredient is iron-chromium oxide, and the outer layers of soft magnetic alloy grains are inter-bonded.
