Swedish tax reforms impress Europe
Ownership transfer|
Estate taxes, like gift tax and capital tax, are now history in Sweden. "And
that’s where they belong," said Krister Andersson of
Swedish Enterprise at a recent conference in Stockholm on ownership transfer.

Sick leave|
The health insurance reform has made businesses better at rehabilitation. Over
2 200 companies were polled on changes to the health insurance system. 37
percent say they’re more active in rehabilitating sick employees. This
appears in a study commissioned by Swedish Enterprise and carried out
by Demoskop.
