The Riksbank's work and recommendations

The Riksbank takes a socio-economic perspective and provides solutions and acts where it is difficult to attain safety, efficiency and accessibility without central government involvement. This includes, among other things, ensuring the country's cash supply and operating the RIX payments system. By monitoring developments on the payments market, the Riksbank identifies measures that can contribute to a safer, more efficient and more accessible market. This includes both private and public actors needing to ensure that the public is able to pay - in normal circumstances as well as in times of crisis and states of heightened alert. In addition, the underlying payment infrastructure needs to be strengthened and modernised.
