SCC in brief
6Strong Institutional Framework
A local government cannot be declared bankrupt in Sweden:
▪ The Swedish Court has stated that the local governments in Sweden are NOT covered
by the Bankruptcy Act (RH 1996:75) meaning bankruptcy in accordance to the Swedish Bankruptcy Act is not applicable for local governments
▪ This is due to the fact that local governments have constitutional rights to levy taxes
and this is also supported by the Swedish Constitution
Requirement for sound financial management Balanced budget requirement Local government financing principle Financial equalisation
Local governments must work according to a sound financial management
Law: “Kommunallagen chapter 11,§ 1 (2017:725)”Annual local government budgets should be in balance, imbalances are normally restored within 3 years
Law: “Kommunallagen chapter 11,§ 5 (2017:725)”If the government alters the tasks of local governments, the government must also neutralise their financial effect
Approved by the parliament and in force since 1993Imbalances between local governments are equalised annually through income and cost equalisation schemes
Law: “Lagen (2004:773) om kommunalekonomisk utjämning” 7Investment plan
