FLODEN: 

  • "Monetary policy will remain contractionary even after a policy rate cut to 3.75 per cent. If these developments continue, it will therefore be appropriate to continue to cut the rate by a few more steps."

BUNGE:

  • "My overall assessment is that now is the time to start easing monetary policy. After today’s initial cut, we should also be able to cut the policy rate in the autumn, in line with our forecast from March."

BREMEN:

  • "This can lead to higher import prices via higher inflation abroad and/or via a weaker exchange rate, thereby increasing inflation in Sweden. If the outlook for inflation changes, monetary policy will be adjusted."
  • The plan to gradually normalise the balance sheet remains intact.
