Stockholm (Ekonamik) – The seventh week of 2019 will be dominated by sovereign debt issuance and the publication of consumer price inflation figures across the world.
The Eurogroup will also meet on Monday to review conditions in Ireland and Portugal and to elect a new member of the ECB Executive Board to succeed Peter Praet. Among monetary policymakers, Riksbanken, the central bank of Sweden, will hold its first meeting and is expected to make no changes to the Swedish policy rate. The week will conclude on Saturday with a general election in Nigeria.
