Financial stability
A stable and functioning financial system is needed for the national economy in Sweden to function well and grow in a sustainable way. The Riksbank's objective, within the framework of its responsibility for the financial system, is to contribute to the stability and efficiency of the financial system, which also includes the ability for the public to make payments. In this work, however, the Riksbank must not neglect the price stability target, which means that the Riksbank shall maintain permanently low and stable inflation.
