After having recorded a positive budget balance from 2016 to 2019, the Swedish government had a budget deficit of 220 billion Swedish kronor in 2020. This must be seen in light of revenue losses and increased expenditures due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2022, Sweden's budget balance was positive, reaching 164 billion Swedish kronor.
