  "account": "Commerzbank's analysts, Michael Pfister and Norman Liebke, reveal that Swedish government policies have temporarily stifled inflation, leaving the Riksbank content with its 1.75% rate. They anticipate a late-year hike, despite market pricing for roughly 120bp increases over 12 months. The Swedish government's actions, such as reduced VAT on food and fuel subsidies, have contributed to the current low inflation levels. The Riksbank will closely monitor inflation, expecting a rise in spring. The market's expectation of a 120bp hike may not be accurate, and the krona's reaction to rate hikes remains complex.",
  "summary": "Commerzbank’s Michael Pfister and Norman Liebke describe how Swedish government tax and fuel measures have temporarily suppressed inflation, keeping the Riksbank on hold at 1.75% with hikes only expected late in the year.",
