Debt Management
The Debt Management department is responsible for government borrowing and debt management. We issue government bonds and other securities purchased by banks, funds, insurance companies and other investors in Sweden and abroad.
Klas Granlund
Head of Debt Management
We are about 30 people working in four divisions: Analysis, Business Support and Development, Funding and Debt Management Back Office.
It is very important to have good relationships with our investors. A broad investor base contributes to lower borrowing costs in the long term and valuable feedback on our business. We also work with international organisations such as the EU, OECD, IMF and the World Bank. This enables us to share our experiences with debt managers and other participants in the financial markets.
Analysis
The Analysis division performs research and provides internal and external advice. We co-ordinate the Debt Office's proposed guidelines for central government debt management and produces statistics on the central government borrowing requirement and government debt. The division plans the amount to borrow, the maturities of the debt, the currencies, and whether the loan is to be inflation-linked or not. Borrowing is subject to government guidelines. Planning is influenced by our forecasts of central government income and expenditure.
