Since 2023, at least there were some polls showing a pro-Euro majority for the first time. Maybe the global turmoil will tip the scales.
Especially since the Krona effectively already follows the monetary policy of the Euro quite closely, from what I’ve heard.
So I wonder what’s the point of keeping the krona (and I wonder the same for Denmark).
People and their traditions. For some, it might feel like losing a part of their identity. Our domestic far-right party of course also eyes with the return of the good old pre-Euro currency.
Just adopt the euro and make things simpler for companies
I once heard of a Swedish company that used Euros internally. So I looked it up and indeed, the Swedish Companies Registration Office specifically permits either SEK or EUR as accounting currencies for limited companies in Sweden. In such a case, using the Krona is almost merely cosmetic.

It does, in economics is said to be “pegged” to the euro.So I wonder what’s the point of keeping the krona (and I wonder the same for Denmark).
Just adopt the euro and make things simpler for companies, tourists, etc.!
Edit: I’m wrong, see below
DKK is pegged, SEK is not.
Oops! My bad. So another reason to switch to the euro!
