Riksbank’s unconvincing hawkish attempt
The Riksbank's recent meeting points to a central bank struggling to maintain its hawkish front while facing persistent low inflation. Although the Riksbank held rates steady at 1.75% and hinted at tighter monetary policy for the future, their new inflation forecasts contradict the appetites for a rate hike in 2026, raising doubts among market participants. Per the full note from ing-think, the updated outlook shows inflation remaining below the 2.0% target until 2027, undercutting any immediate rate hike expectations. The desk sees this divergence as reflective of a broader sentiment that is cautious on the Swedish krona, anticipating continued weakness over the near term.
