Riksbanken Sets 2026 Reference Rate at 2.00%

Sweden’s central bank, Riksbanken, has set the reference rate for the period January 1 to June 30, 2026, at 2.00 percent. The rate will apply for each calendar half‑year, as required by section 9 of the Riksbank Act (1975:635). Riksbanken notes that the reference rate has no monetary‑policy purpose and is established to meet legal obligations rather than to influence inflation or economic activity. The decision was announced in a press release issued on 30 December 2025. The reference rate is used in various banking and financial calculations and is published in the Riksbank’s official bulletin. The change will affect interest rate agreements that reference the rate for the stated period.
