According to Reuters, the Riksbank will cooperate with the commercial bank Handelsbanken to test e-krona, the country’s own central bank digital currency (CBDC), to study how to process payments in the real world. 

Swedbank stated that the e-krona trial is transitioning from a state of only simulated participants to cooperation with external participants in a test environment.

Riksbank said in April that it would seek to include commercial banks in the next phase of the test to evaluate how the e-krona can be used for large commercial and small retail payments.
