STOCKHOLM, April 21 (Reuters) - Sweden's central bank
will have only five rate-setters from June, the General Council
overseeing the Riksbank said on Friday after it decided not to
replace Deputy Governor Henry Ohlsson, who is stepping down.
The Riksbank's policy-setting committee was in any case set
to be cut to five members from the current six by 2028 under a
new law, and the General Council said it had chosen to implement
the policy this year.
"The executive board will therefore consist of five members
with effect from 1 July 2023," the General Council said in a
statement.
