EUR/SEK Historical Performance
In the early years, after the launch of the euro in 1999, the EUR/SEK exchange rate was
relatively stable, with the euro trading at around 9-9.50 Swedish krona.
The global financial crisis of 2008 and the subsequent economic downturn impacted the pair’s
value. By March 2009, the price skyrocketed above 11.50. However, the krona soon recovered, and
the price fell below 8.50 in the summer of 2012. One of the reasons was the European debt
crisis, which started in 2010. Concerns over the stability of the Eurozone and potential
contagion effects affected the rate.
Following the debt crisis, the Eurozone started to show signs of economic recovery. The European
Central Bank (ECB) implemented various monetary policies to stimulate growth. As the euro
strengthened, the pair formed a long-term uptrend so that in May 2023, it managed to reach the
highs of 2009.
EUR/SEK is one of the more commonly traded pairs as it demonstrates significant price swings,
providing numerous trading opportunities.
Major Factors That Affect the EUR/SEK Pair
Economic data such as inflation rates, employment, and GDP growth in the Eurozone and Sweden may
affect the market.
Monetary policies are another essential factor that can impact the euro/ Swedish krona pairing.
The stance of monetary policies conducted by the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Swedish
Riksbank determine the strength of the currencies, including interest rate differentials between
the Eurozone and Sweden. Therefore, traders closely track the central banks’ statements.
Although there are not many geopolitical tensions in the Eurozone or Sweden, political
developments, trade disputes, and economic crises may have an impact on the euro/Swedish krona.
As it’s a minor currency pair, market sentiment plays a vital role in determining its
value.
