As economic recovery gains momentum and price pressure appears to be lessening, the Riksbank kept borrowing costs at a three-year low and reiterated plans to stay on hold until 2027. According to Thursday's statement, the Riksbank kept the key interest rate unchanged at 1.75%, in line with the predictions of all 21 economists surveyed. Officials reiterated their forward-looking guidance, saying, “If the outlook for inflation and economic activity remains stable, then policy interest rates are expected to remain at this level for some time to come.” Shortly after the interest rate decision was announced, the exchange rate of the Swedish krona against the euro was reported at 10.8910, maintaining the previous increase. Since this year, the Swedish krona has accumulated a cumulative increase of nearly 5% against the euro, and is the best performing G-10 currency in 2025.
