Swedish financial system stands strong amid turmoil, Riksbank chief says
Adds details, quotes, background
STOCKHOLM, March 21 (Reuters) - The Swedish financial system is strong amid the market turmoil and the country's banks are well-capitalised, Central Bank Governor Erik Thedeen told reporters on Tuesday.
Central banks and regulators are scrambling to reassure markets after bank collapses in the U.S. and Switzerland rocked investor's confidence this month.
"The Swedish banking system and the financial system are strong. We have well-capitalized, profitable banks, so in that sense we don't need to be worried," Thedeen said following an extraordinary meeting of the Financial Stability Council.
"We should also feel secure in the fact that the authorities that have the job to deal with this are working closely together and are working with the government. So there is good capacity to act should this head into another phase," he added.
Thedeen also said the centralbank wassticking to its February message that incoming economic data will decide the future path of interest rates and that a hike by 25 or 50 basis points was still the main scenario.
"We are coming from a situation where inflation is very high. We have an inflation target ... that we must reach, but we have to get there in a sensible and well-balanced way so that we don't create unnecessary turbulence or damage the economy unnecessarily," he said.
"It is a difficult decision ... but it is going to be extra-difficult in April."
