“We have changed our call on the Riksbank and now expect it to hike the interest rate in December”.

“In our view, it should lend support to the SEK and pull EUR/SEK sharply lower in a 3M perspective. At the same time, if we get a ‘one and done’ hike, where it kicks the ‘planned hikes’ for 2019 down the road – our new base scenario – EUR/SEK is not likely to continue to trend lower over time”.

“Instead, based on current pricing in the money market, we expect EUR/SEK to move more sideways in a 6-12M perspective”.
