This was announced on Saturday, where Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson (S) said that Sweden is now facing a “war winter” and that the purpose of the support is to protect Swedish households and companies and secure financial stability.
When asked if this could affect other sectors such as the real estate sector and mortgages, the statements were clear from both the Riksbank and the Financial Supervisory Authority.
– The aim is to ensure that this remains an isolated event, and then the economy in a broad sense should not be affected to any extent, said Stefan Ingves, head of the Riksbank.
