Bäckström: Future directions for the interest rate
Governor Urban Bäckström held a speech on Monday at a seminar organised by Grennaskolan Riksinternat AB, Föreningssparbanken and the Federation of Private Enterprises. The speech was entitled "Future directions for the interest rate" and was held at Medborgarskolan in Gränna. It was based entirely on the Riksbank's Inflation Report published on 17 October and on the press release published on 15 November in connection with the publication of the Riksbank's decision to lower the repo rate by 0.25 percentage points to 4.0 per cent.
