Sweden | We expect strong growth in Q3
Sweden’s economy grew by 0.9% q/q in Q2 according to the flash estimate. This was below our forecast and driven by tax changes for registering new cars introduced on 1 April. But the monthly GDP series points to an acceleration through the quarter with growth up to 2.5% in June.
What you will learn:
- High-frequency indicators point to the pace of the recovery
slowing recently, probably due to seasonal factors - The job recovery continues at a steady pace
- The pandemic brought a major fiscal and monetary policy response that has supported jobs and incomes. However, we expect the fiscal impulse to turn negative next year.
- Our forecasts up to 2024 for all of the key economic indicators including GDP, Consumer demand, exports of goods and services, Domestic demand

The boost from higher import demand due to expansionary fiscal policies will likely overwhelm the adverse impact of targeted tariffs on Japan. The US is Japan's biggest goods export destination, accounting for 20% of total. Most traded items such as machinery and automotives are set to benefit from higher investment demand and consumer spending.
