Lucintel discusses the various challenges faced by Sweden. After the economic slowdown, the Swedish economy recovered with a moderate GDP growth rate in 2010. The country has high household debt. Deleveraging of the household sector, which is in great disorder, can affect the banking sector of the country. This is one of the major challenges faced by Sweden.
