Aided by peace and neutrality for the whole of the 20th
century, Sweden has achieved an enviable standard of living
under a mixed system of high-tech capitalism and extensive
welfare benefits. It has a modern distribution system,
excellent internal and external communications, and a
skilled labor force. In September 2003, Swedish voters
turned down entry into the euro system concerned about
the impact on the economy and sovereignty. Timber, hydropower,
and iron ore constitute the resource base of an economy
heavily oriented toward foreign trade. Privately owned
firms account for about 90% of industrial output, of which
the engineering sector accounts for 50% of output and
exports. Agriculture accounts for only 1% of GDP and 2%
of employment. Until 2008, Sweden was in the midst of
a sustained economic upswing, boosted by increased domestic
demand and strong exports. This and robust finances offered
the center-right government considerable scope to implement
its reform program aimed at increasing employment, reducing
welfare dependence, and streamlining the state's role
in the economy. Despite strong finances and underlying
fundamentals, the Swedish economy slid into recession
in the third quarter of 2008 and growth continued downward
in the fourth as deteriorating global conditions reduced
export demand and consumption. On 3 February 2009, the
Swedish Government announced a $6 billon rescue package
for the banking sector. |
