Surplus for Swedish central government in April
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Swedish central government payments resulted in a surplus of SEK 7.0 billion in
April. The Debt Office's forecast was a surplus of SEK 4.2 billion. The
difference is mainly due to higher tax income and lower interest payments on
central government debt.
The central government's primary borrowing requirement, excluding net lending,
was SEK 0.9 billion lower than forecast. Tax income was approximately SEK 3
billion higher than estimated. This was partly counteracted by larger
disbursements, mainly the contribution to the EU.
The Debt Office's net lending to government agencies was SEK 0.6 billion higher
than forecast, which is mainly due to lower deposits from the Swedish Pensions
Agency.
Interest payments on central government debt were SEK 2.5 billion lower than
calculated. This is mainly due to lower capital losses related to switch
auctions in inflation-linked bonds, since the demand for switching SGB IL 3104
for SGB IL 3111 was lower than expected.
For the twelve-month period up to the end of April 2015, central government
payments resulted in a deficit of SEK 66.4 billion.
Central government debt amounted to SEK 1,375 billion at the end of April 2015.
The outcome for May will be published on 5 June 2015, at 9:30 am.
