Annika Winsth describes the sanctions against Russia as very strong. 

"Russia has been properly tied up when it freezes the Russian central bank's opportunities to use its assets," she says.

If Russia responds by restricting exports of, for example, gas or grain to the West, it could lead to very high inflation in Sweden, among other places, according to Winsth.

But even if this does not happen, you as an entrepreneur should prepare for a weak krona, she believes.

When times are troubled, many people tend to invest in safer currencies such as the dollar instead of the krona.

"Messy in the Russian economy"

In Russia, interest rates have already been raised so that people do not withdraw their money when the ruble falls.

Torbjörn Becker, head of the Institute of Eastern Economics, assesses that there is a great risk that there will be a financial and banking crisis as a result of the sanctions against the country.

- It will be very messy in the Russian economy for a while now.

- The Russian central bank will resort to lots of different tricks.

But I think there is so much uncertainty now in Russia, so it will not really make the economy work as it should.
