Surplus for Swedish central government in May
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Swedish central government payments resulted in a surplus of SEK 20.3 billion in
May. The Debt Office's forecast was a surplus of SEK 16.4 billion. The
difference is mainly due to higher tax income.
The central government's primary borrowing requirement, excluding net lending,
was SEK 5.2 billion lower than forecast. This is mainly explained by higher tax
income than calculated.
The Debt Office's net lending to government agencies was SEK 1.4 billion higher
than forecast, which is mainly due to lower deposits from the Swedish Pensions
Agency.
Interest payments on central government debt amounted to SEK 4.0 billion, which
was SEK 0.1 billion lower than forecast.
For the twelve-month period up to the end of May 2015, central government
payments resulted in a deficit of SEK 75.1 billion.
Central government debt amounted to SEK 1,364 billion at the end of May 2015.
The outcome for June will be published on 7 July 2015, at 9:30 am.
