Macroprudential measures in other countries
Finansinspektionen can reciprocate the macroprudential measures of other countries in accordance with the capital adequacy regulations (Capital Requirements Regulation and Capital Requirements Directive).
The authority that has introduced the initial measure can submit a request for reciprocation of macroprudential measures to the European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB). The ESRB can then issue recommendations on reciprocation to other Member States.
In cases where FI has decided to reciprocate the measure of another Member State, affected Swedish institutions’ exposures in the State are subject to the macroprudential measure in question, given that some specific thresholds are met. This means that a reciprocated measure does not necessarily impact all institutions.
FI has decided on the following reciprocation of other countries’ macroprudential measures:
- Reciprocation of the Norwegian risk weight floor (2025-10-03, in Swedish)
- Reciprocation of the Norwegian systemic risk buffer (2025-03-11, in Swedish)
- Reciprocation of the Danish systemic risk buffer (2024-08-12, in Swedish)
- Reciprocation of the Lithuanian systemic risk buffer (2022-06-29, in Swedish)
- Reciprocation of the French tightening of the limit on some large exposures (2019-07-08, in Swedish)
An overview of all macroprudential measures within the EU and whether they are reciprocated is available on the ESRB’s website.
