The Riksbank

DESCRIPTION

The Riksbank, founded in 1668, is the world’s oldest central bank, crucial for Sweden's monetary policy. Established to ensure price stability, it targets a low and stable inflation rate of 2%. With an independent status since 1999, the Riksbank’s monetary policy aims to avoid high and variable inflation, which complicates long-term planning and increases uncertainty and borrowing costs. The executive board, led by Stefan Ingves, oversees these tasks, which include managing the payment system and implementing financial forecasts.
