The Swedish economy advanced 0.1 percent on quarter in the three months June 2019, higher than a preliminary estimate and market expectations of a 0.1 percent contraction, the same pace in the previous period, final figures showed. Household consumption increased 1.1 percent (vs -0.3 percent in Q1) while government spending shrank 0.1 percent (vs 0.3 percent in Q1) and gross fixed capital formation declined 1.0 percent (vs -0.3 percent in Q1), mainly due to reduced investments in housing.

Meantime, net external demand contributed negatively, as exports remained unchanged (vs 0.9 percent in Q1) while imports rose 0.3 percent (vs -0.4 percent in Q1). Year-on-year, the economy grew 1 percent, lower than a preliminary estimate and consensus of a 1.4 percent expansion and easing from a downwardly revised 1.5 percent in the first quarter of the year.
