This study presents evidence on risk-adjusted profits for the Swedish central bank. Estimated profits can be quite sensitive as to whether rates of return are risk-adjusted or not, and how the risk-adjustment is done. Various ways of adjusting for abnormal returns, and extracting buy-sell signals, are tried. Results, on daily data, support the view that Riksbank intervention did not make risk-adjusted losses over the period 1986-1990. The results might be challenged as arising from inappropriate risk adjustment.
