USD/SEK — US Dollar to Swedish Krona
USD/SEK expresses how many Swedish krona one US dollar buys. It is the standard reference for trade and investment flows between the United States and Sweden, and a widely quoted pair among Scandinavian currencies.
The krona floats freely under Sveriges Riksbank, Sweden's central bank, which sets policy around domestic inflation rather than an exchange-rate target. Sweden is a small, open, export-oriented economy outside the eurozone, so the krona tends to behave as a cyclical currency — it is sensitive to global risk sentiment, the broader European growth cycle, and the gap between Riksbank and US Federal Reserve policy rates.
Because Swedish exporters and investors are closely tied to eurozone demand, USD/SEK often moves in tandem with EUR/USD even though Sweden retains its own currency and central bank.
This page shows an indicative mid-market rate that can update intraday through the trading week. It is not a live intraday quote for settlement or regulated trading — every API response carries source and market_session so you can see whether a given number reflects a live tick or a daily reference fix.
Frequently asked questions
- What does USD/SEK measure?
- USD/SEK states how many Swedish krona you receive for one US dollar. A rate of 10.50 means one dollar buys 10.50 krona.
- Is the Swedish krona pegged to the euro?
- No. The krona floats freely — Sweden is an EU member but not part of the eurozone, and Sveriges Riksbank sets independent monetary policy targeting domestic inflation.
- What mainly drives USD/SEK?
- Global risk sentiment, the policy-rate gap between the Riksbank and the US Federal Reserve, and the health of the broader eurozone growth cycle (Sweden's largest trading partner) are the main drivers.
- Is this rate live or a daily reference?
- The API response for this pair carries a source and market_session field on every call, so you always know whether the quote reflects a live intraday tick or a daily reference fix — the rate can update intraday through the trading week, but no fixed refresh interval is guaranteed.
- Why does USD/SEK track EUR/USD so closely?
- Sweden's economy is small, open, and heavily export-oriented toward the eurozone, so the krona often trades as a higher-beta cousin of the euro even though it floats independently.
- Who watches USD/SEK closely?
- Exporters and importers trading with Sweden, investors in Scandinavian assets, and businesses managing Nordic currency exposure use USD/SEK as their primary reference.
- How do I get this rate via the API?
- GET /v1/latest/USD?symbols=SEK returns the indicative rate, source, market_session, and timestamp. The free tier covers it, no credit card required. All rates are indicative, not for settlement.
