This was a result of the decision of the Riksbank to strengthen reserve assets that were financed by the government issues of government bonds in foreign currency. The trend from the previous quarter remained and non-financial corporations continued to decrease their debts in inter-company loans abroad. www.scb.se 2013-06-19T09:30:00+02:00 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 09:30:00 GMT http://www.scb.se/Pages/PressRelease____358867.aspx http://www.scb.se/Pages/PressRelease____358867.aspx In May the total stock of issues with Swedish issuers increased by SEK 136 billion and amounted to SEK 6 107 billion net.
