Riksbanken — Sweden's central bank

Name: Riksbanken — Sweden's central bank
License: CC-BY-4.0

Riksbanken exposes exchange rates (SEK/EUR, SEK/USD, SEK/NOK, SEK/DKK and more) and the policy rate (the repo rate) via the SWEA REST API. Inflation (CPIF, 12-month) is sourced from SCB's PxWebApi (table TAB6590) because SWEA does not publish inflation series. Data is openly available without authentication. Licence: CC-BY-4.0. Issue #1184.
