Summary:

Since the previous FSAP macroprudential policy in Sweden has advanced considerably. The mandate for FI is now well established, FI has increased risk weights on commercial real estate, tightened amortization requirements for residential real estate and increased several capital buffers – including changing the CCyB policy to set a positive neutral rate of 2%. During the pandemic many of these requirements were relaxed but have now been re-established as the economy recovers.
