Description

We have kept our 2026 GDP growth forecast for Sweden unchanged at 2.4%, among the highest rates of expansion for advanced economies. Domestic demand will be the main driver, fuelled by positive real income gains, past monetary policy loosening, and supportive fiscal policy. The external sector faces headwinds from US tariffs, Chinese competition, and policy uncertainty. We think the Riksbank will keep its policy rate on hold at 1.75% through most of this year, with one 25bps hike to 2% by year-end.
