The idea could give us a boost in growth, says S leader Magdalena Andersson.

The idea is that the policy, together with the business sector, should identify strategic future industries where Sweden has good conditions to be at the forefront of development, for example within AI, the energy sector, and various green investments.

The state could also go in and co-own companies, according to the S.

This is a way for the state, which is sometimes involved in and shares investments, to also be able to share in the profits, says Andersson.

The proposal for an investment bank is part of the S's new growth policy to be decided at the party's congress in Gothenburg at the end of May.
