Governor Erik Thedéen gives a speech on how the operational framework for monetary policy is intended to function in an environment where the Riksbank is now reducing its holdings of securities. This will place greater demands on the banks to act on the overnight market and, if necessary, borrow and invest in the Riksbank. Mattias Persson, Group Chief Economist at Swedbank, comments on the speech and gives his views on the central bank operating framework.
The event will be broadcast live on www.riksbank.se and posted afterwards. The speech will also be published.
Journalists can participate. Advance registration is required, to press officer Susanne Meyer, susanne.meyer@riksbank.se, no later than 12:00 on 11 September. Press cards or the equivalent are required to participate.
Erik Thedéen will be available on site for comments to the media after the event. For more information, please contact Press Officer Tomas Lundberg, tomas.lundberg@riksbank.se or +46 70 246 61 57.
