Riksbank SWEA Rates Scraper
Scrape Riksbank SWEA rates for any policy rate, STIBOR, government bond yield, or SEK cross rate, up to a million observations per run. Each row includes the series ID, date, and value, ready for CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML export. No API key or registration.
Riksbank's SWEA database holds every official Swedish interest rate and exchange rate, but the website only shows one series at a time and has no bulk export. This Actor reads the public SWEA API directly, so you can pull the policy rate, STIBOR fixings, government bond yields, and SEK cross rates into one flat dataset. Pick one series or all of them, get the latest observation or a full history, and export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
| Who uses it | What they scrape Riksbank for |
|---|---|
| Macro analysts | Pull the policy rate and STIBOR history to model Swedish monetary conditions. |
| Treasury teams | Download daily SEK cross rates for valuation and reporting. |
| Quant researchers | Build yield curve datasets from government bond and treasury bill series. |
| Financial journalists | Check the latest Riksbank rate decision and market reaction. |
| Risk managers | Monitor forward premiums and reference rates for exposure calculations. |
What it does
This Actor collects Riksbank SWEA rate observations by series ID and returns each observation as a flat row with the series ID, date, and value.
- π Series selection: choose any of the 100+ SWEA series, from the policy rate to SEK/USD forward premiums.
- π Latest or history: get only the most recent observation per series, or set a from and to date for a full time series.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check that the series ID is spelled correctly and that the date range is valid. If you set a from date after the to date, no observations will be returned.
Why did the run stop before pulling all history?
The max items limit caps the total observations per run. Increase 'Maximum rates' up to 1,000,000 to get more data.
Why is the latest observation not today's date?
Riksbank publishes rates on business days. If today is a weekend or holiday, the latest observation will be the last business day.
Can I get intraday data?
No, SWEA provides daily observations only. The Actor returns one value per series per date.
Why do some series have missing values?
Some series, like STIBOR, are not published on certain days. The Actor returns only the dates where Riksbank published a value.
