Swedish debts
Fewer debt collection demands but longer payment times cause concern
Few people received debt collection demands in November than the month before, but a larger proportion had difficulty paying the demands they received. This is shown by statistics from the Swedish Collection Agency.
– The signals we have seen during November are a bit worrying, there are many more who need longer to pay than at the beginning of the year, says the chairman of the Swedish Collection Agency, Fredrik Engström, to TT.
The fact that fewer people received demands is believed to be due to reduced consumption. Of those who continued to shop on credit, 42 percent had paid within a month in November, down from 51 percent at the beginning of the year.
Musk recruits cost-makers for “Doge”
Entrepreneur Elon Musk has brought in his absolute spearhead in efficiency improvements to lead the Department of Government Efficiency, Doge. Bloomberg reports.
Steve Davis has helped Musk trim costs for 20 years at Space X, Tesla and X. When Musk took over Twitter and cut the number of employees by 80 percent, according to his own information, it was Steve Davis who took on the task.
Davis is rumored to be a person who personally reviews invoices of $ 800 in companies worth billions. At one point, Musk is said to have asked Davis if he could find a cheaper alternative to a machine part that cost $ 12,000. After weeks of intensive searching, he found a substitute for $ 3,900 and then received a simple “Thanks.” from his boss, the news agency writes.
Gardell: Sweden also needs an “Elon Musk”
Finance man Christer Gardell tells TT that Sweden would also need an Elon Musk who can clean up the bureaucracy a bit and streamline the state apparatus.
– I think this is exciting: that you bring in businessmen who are used to working with efficiency improvements, simplifications and improvements in a state apparatus.
He also suggests possible candidates: former Hexagon CEO Ola Rollén or board professional Jonas Molin. Truck stoppers Martin Lundstedt and Christian Levin would also be suitable, he says.
