The executive board of Sweden’s central bank has published detailed reviews of how it might use the Eurosystem’s payment platforms for securities and large-value payments.

Sveriges Riksbank said it will need to consider questions around security and contingency measures before entering into any formal contract negotiations.

It also wants to ensure that a connection to the platforms will not prevent it from continuing to pursue an “independent monetary policy”.
