The Swedish FSA is a governmental agency. We strive for promotion of financial stability and assurance of consumer rights. Every company engaged in Swedish financial markets is liable to our supervision and authorization. Analysis of market patterns, evaluation of business soundness of firms, industries and market in general are within our cognizance. Paying due attention to risks and control measures, we ascertain conformity to the relevant normative acts.
We license every activity associated with financial services. Our legislative competence involves issuance of standards and amendment of current unqualified normative acts. Should in-compliance or market rate manipulations become apparent, on-the-spot investigations will involve resident and non-resident Swedish companies.
We see to elaboration of accounting and reporting rules, guaranteeing that the public is kept posted on the activities pursued by the companies.
