The governor of the Central Bank of Sweden comments our payment systems.

Hereโ€™s an AI translation of the text into English:

"Given the geopolitical situation, it is important to create European systems in a number of areas. This is according to Riksbank Governor Erik Thedรฉen in an interview with Ekotโ€™s Saturday program, where he emphasizes that Swedenโ€™s payment systems should not be as dependent on the USA as they have been. As an example, he points out that the two dominant credit card issuers, Mastercard and Visa, are American. 'It is probably wise to consider that we should also have European or Swedish systems that function in case the American ones do not,' he says. According to the central bank governor, Swish is 'a certain complement.' He also highlights that other countries, such as Denmark, have their own national credit cards."

Oopsie, sorry about that. The link apparently disappeared when I added the picture. I changed it back again.
