At the end of April, borrowing in bonds represented 86 percent of total borrowing in debt securities. This borrowing was mainly issued by the bank and housing credit institutions sectors and amounted to a total value of SEK 3 691 billion. In April, borrowing in bonds increased by SEK 27 billion in the bank sector and housing credit institutions increased borrowing by SEK 54 billion. The housing credit institutions’ increase consists of bonds denominated in Swedish kronor valued at SEK 37 billion, and euros valued at SEK 18 billion. The total increase in bonds in April is largely due to increased borrowing from housing credit institutions. Total borrowing by the bank sector increased by SEK 26 billion compared with the previous month and amounted to SEK 2 344 billion at the end of the month. This increase is based on bonds valued at SEK 27 billion, largely due to an increase of SEK 22 billion in bonds denominated in US dollars.

In the non-financial and other financial sector total borrowing increased by SEK 41 billion compared with the previous month and amounted to SEK 1 406 billion at the end of the month. This increase is based on bonds valued at SEK 34 billion, largely due to an increase of SEK 28 billion in bonds denominated in euros.

Other monetary financial institutions decreased total borrowing by SEK 7 billion in April. Money market instruments denominated in Swedish kronor decreased by SEK 13 billion, in particular as a result of a decrease in Riksbank certificates.

Maturity structure

April statistics show that securities valued at SEK 2 215 billion will reach maturity within twelve months. The bank, other monetary financial institutions and non-financial enterprises sectors represent 40 percent, 22 percent and 12 percent respectively of maturity value within twelve months.

Maturity value is fairly evenly distributed between short-term and long-term securities. Among short-term securities, the maturity value is mainly due to securities denominated in foreign currency, while among long-term securities, the maturity value is mainly due to securities denominated in Swedish kronor.
