⚠️ HRF CBDC ⛓️🪙 alert from HRF for Sweden (29-MAR-2024)
🗝️ℹ️ (Key Information)
CBDC Status: Pilot
CBDC Launch: n/a
CBDC Model: n/a
CBDC Issued: n/a
Inflation Rate: 8.37%
One-Sentence Summary:
🇸🇪's Central Bank (Sveriges Riksbank) consistently expands on its CBDC research and pilots, yet maintains that the decision to introduce e-krona lies in political channels.
✅ In 2016, 🇸🇪's Central Bank started considering issuing a CBDC, the e-krona, whose necessity was emphasized in a 2017 report due to the decline in cash use.
✅ The Sveriges Riksbank initiated a CBDC pilot in 2020 aimed at understanding technical requirements, practical applications, and other options; several reports released up until 2023 highlighted feasible implementation and system integration.
✅ Collaboration with The Bank for International Settlements aimed at examining cross-border transactions involving CBDCs resulted in a central hub for exchanges across CBDC systems.
✅ Even with ongoing development and research, the introduction of the e-krona in 🇸🇪 is described as "a political decision", and recent reports suggest there may be insufficient social need for introducing a CBDC.
✅ Despite completing a fourth testing phase in 2024, recognizing offline capabilities requiring more development work, the envisioned CBDC exists only within the online system.
✅ Despite 🇸🇪's solid score in Freedom House's 2023 Freedom report, the introduction of a CBDC still has potential privacy risks and can impact financial freedom.
