Surplus for Swedish central government in February
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Swedish central government payments resulted in a surplus of SEK 37.1 billion in
February. The surplus was thus SEK 2.2 billion lower than the Debt Office's
forecast of SEK 39.3 billion. The difference is mainly explained by somewhat
lower tax income and higher net lending to government agencies.
The central government's primary borrowing requirement, excluding net lending,
was SEK 0.7 billion higher than forecast. Tax income was SEK 1 billion lower
than calculated.
The Debt Office's net lending to government agencies was SEK 0.9 billion higher
than forecast. This is mainly due to reduced deposits from the Nuclear Waste
Fund.
Interest payments on central government debt were SEK 0.6 billion higher than
calculated.
For the twelve-month period up to the end of February 2015, central government
payments resulted in a deficit of SEK 63.4 billion.
Central government debt amounted to SEK 1,366 billion at the end of February
2015.
The outcome for March will be published on 9 April 2015, at 9:30 am.
