Perhaps the EU should switch to the SEK?

They can’t keep evading it with excuses.

Yes. About damn time.

Coming from a country with Euro, and working in Sweden, there is almost no upside to keeping my Swedish Krona. All my savings go to EUR or USD investments as the SEK just keeps loosing value compared to these currencies.
Get the Euro Sweden!

It’s simple, Sweden is just waiting to go completely cashless as they’re planning to before switching to the Euro, making the hassle much smaller.
Glory4cod on
Nej, tack.
From someone lives and works in Sweden, no. I would rather ask Sweden to stick with SEK rather than EURO. That’s about economic sovereignty and independence. It is crucial to have independent currency policy in this world to make sure it plays well with economic ups and downs.
EURO is controlled by these big players like France or Germany. I don’t think Sweden will be an important role in ECB, and I don’t think ECB would care too much about Sweden. That’s not mutual beneficial.

Dont do it Sweden! The Euro is such an unstable currency, and tying up ones economy with that of the poorer mations makes no sense

This is from a newspaper so tiny that only the people in one Village reads it.

Honestly looking at the swedish krona decline, it might not be a bad idea

It makes sense; having control of your own interest rates makes less and less sense the more you’re integrated with another economy. It’s pretty unlikely Sweden will be in a recession if the rest of the EU is in expansion and so on.
Moreover having a different currency means your exporters and importers are constantly hit by currency conversion risks; if the raw materials you need to produce your goods can randomly become more expensive while the price you get when selling goods abroad suddenly drops it gets harder to plan and invest for the future.
It would also be good to take away the ability for Sweden to prop up it’s housing market by having rates artificially low to appease homeowners, which is popular but harmful in the long run.

Sweden should stay with the SEK. A nation forfeits authority over its own national monetary policy when it joins the euro. This implies:
* No autonomous interest rate decisions: The European Central Bank (ECB) determines interest rates for the whole eurozone, not just for certain nations.
* No currency control: The nation cannot increase its competitiveness or react to economic shocks by devaluing or revaluing its currency.
* Lack of an independent money supply: The nation is unable to print money or carry out measures like quantitative easing on its own.

Controlling your own monetary policies has its advantages. But I can understand why south/eastern European countries prefer the stability of the euro.

Personally, I would like Sweden to implement the change now. But too many in Sweden are negative about EU cooperation and Euro cooperation. People are talking about magnifying cultural differences in order to join. So even though I want Sweden to join, I can’t see the Swedish population changing their views within the next 10 to 20 years.

No, not when our Krona is this weak
Mirabeaux1789 on
“ a common currency symbolizes cooperation among democratic countries defending human rights in an era of rising authoritarianism”
“a shared currency strengthens the EU unity and it’s collective commitment to security”
These points reach too much for my taste. And it’s not really true.
