Abstract
In this text the causes of over-indebtedness in Sweden was examined, as well as if
over-indebtedness may be caused by external economic shocks or personal responsibility.
The theoretical starting point for the text was (Pålsson, 2001; SOU, 2013:78) and re-
ports from the Swedish Enforcement Authority (Kronofogdemyndigheten) among other
sources. The concept of external economic shock was discussed and de?ned with regard
to the context. Over-indebtedness was examined statistically in terms of yearly data
and municipality data from the Swedish Enforcement Authority regarding its activity. It
was concluded that external shocks cannot be excluded as a cause of over-indebtedness.

Abstract (Swedish)
I denna text undersöktes orsakerna till överskuldsättning i Sverige, samt om överskuld-
sättning kan vara orsakad av externa ekonomiska chocker eller personligt ansvar. Den
teoretiska utgångspunkten var bland annat (Pålsson, 2001; SOU, 2013:78) och rapporter
från Kronofogdemyndigheten. Begreppen extern ekonomisk chock och överskuldsättning
diskuterades och preciserades för kontexten. Överskuldsättning undersöktes statistiskt
i termer av årsdata och kommundata från Kronofogdemyndigheten rörande dess aktivi-
tet. Det konstaterades att externa ekonomiska chocker inte kan uteslutas som orsak till
överskuldsättning. Det konstaterades att externa ekonomiska chocker kan förväntas öka
sannolikheten för överskuldsättning.
