In some countries, and I wouldn't be surprised if Sweden is one of them, it's a requirement that you be allowed to have a bank account. You can't be refused.

That’s very good to hear, from where I’m from (Eastern Europe) a bank account is very heavily linked to a current physical address (as in, you must have a physical address officially attached to your name which in itself is a quite cumbersome process) and oftentimes with an additional proof (like an utilities bill on your name attached to that address). That makes getting a bank account a little difficult for many people.
