Deficit for Swedish central government in June
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Swedish central government payments resulted in a deficit of SEK 19.6 billion in
June. The Debt Office's forecast was a deficit of SEK 21.3 billion. The
difference is mainly due to larger tax income.
Tax income was about SEK 2 billion higher than forecast. It was mainly income
from taxes on consumption that developed stronger.
The Debt Office's net lending to government agencies was SEK 0.4 billion higher
than forecast, mainly due to larger lending to Svenska Kraftnät.
Interest payments on central government debt amounted to SEK 1.8 billion, which
was in line with forecast.
For the twelve-month period up to the end of June 2016, central government
payments resulted in a surplus of SEK 52.5 billion.
Central government debt amounted to SEK 1,363 billion at the end of June.
The outcome for July will be published on 5 August at 9.30 a.m.
