Sveriges Riksbank today (September 20) implemented the largest interest rate increase since the introduction of a flexible exchange rate and inflation targeting in 1992.

“Inflation is too high. It is undermining households’ purchasing power and making it more difficult for both companies and households to plan their finances,” said the policy statement.
