The Swedish central bank cuts interest rates by 0.25 percentage points. Now the key interest rate in Sweden is 3.25 per cent. It became known on Wednesday morning. Experts expected in advance that there would be an interest rate cut. Today’s interest rate cut is the third this year. In May, the Swedes cut interest rates for the first time in eight years, and in August there was another interest rate cut. In a press release, the Swedish central bank is open to the possibility that there could be more interest rate cuts this year if the inflation outlook holds. Price growth in Sweden has come down much more than in Norway, and is now around 2 per cent. Like Norway, the Swedes also have an inflation target of 2 per cent annually.
