Central government payments gave a surplus in March
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Swedish central government payments resulted in a surplus of SEK 4.4 billion in
March. The Debt Office's forecast was a deficit of SEK 10.1 billion. The
difference is mainly explained by tax revenue being higher than expected.
Tax revenue was SEK 14 billion higher than calculated. The accumulated
difference for February and March is approximately SEK 9 billion. In March, many
tax payers have continued to make supplementary tax payments for previous income
years. Some of these payments are probably a re-distribution of payments between
months. Remaining central government payments largely developed in line with the
forecast.
Interest payments on central government debt were SEK 1.5 billion lower than
calculated and the Debt office's net lending to government agencies was SEK 2
billion higher than expected.
For the twelve-month period up to the end of March, central government payments
resulted in a deficit of SEK 173 billion. Central government debt amounted to
SEK 1,130 billion at the end of March.
The outcome for April will be published at 9.30 am on 7 May 2010.
