Riksbank publishes the IMF’s report on Sweden’s economy

A delegation from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) today completes its annual visit to Sweden. The visit forms part of the regular consultations that the IMF has with its member countries, the so-called Article IV consultations.

In connection with the conclusion of the visit, a concluding statement is published today, where the IMF delegation gives its overall assessment of the situation in the Swedish economy. The full report will be published on both the IMF's and the Riksbank's websites later in the spring.

A press conference will be held today at 10 a.m. in the Riksbank. At the press meeting, the Mission Chief of the delegation for the Swedish Article IV Consultation, Khaled Sakr, will present the delegation’s view of the Swedish economy. This year's consultation follows an IMF assessment of Sweden's financial sector, known as the Financial Sector Assessment Program (FSAP), and the Mission Chief for FSAP, Tommaso Mancini Griffoli, will also take part in the press meeting.
