Abstract: Abstract In the introductory chapter, Sweden’s financial system is presented as an example of the interaction between politics and banking. Sweden implemented banking regulations after World War II, which initiated a new regulatory regime, and opened for a strong political guidance of the financial sector. This chapter discusses the establishment of different financial regulatory regimes from an international perspective, as well as the nature and rationality of regulations in the banking sector.
