I’m sorry that your Swedish central bank is classified, since, based on your worldview, there are presumably a bunch of Swedish economists working there behind closed doors to screw you over.
"Effective March 15, 2020, the meeting was closed to public observation by Order of the Board of Governors1 because the matters fall under exemption(s) 9(A)(i) of the Government in the Sunshine Act (5 U.S.C. Section 552b(c)), and it was determined that the public interest did not require opening the meeting."
This seems to be the case for almost all of their meetings.
They only keep certain parts secret so market actors don’t make decisions based on what the Fed is thinking about doing. Obviously if people knew the Fed was thinking about raising interest rates, for example, it would affect their decisions (and the market as a whole) negatively. This is something any business or economics undergrad learns in an introductory banking class; since you are evidently unfamiliar with the Fed’s system (as opposed to the Swedish one), you may find it helpful to consult an American money and banking textbook.
From your own link, verbatim:
"Items considered in closed session include primarily
- Bank and bank holding company supervisory matters, discussions of which generally disclose information from bank examination reports or commercial and financial information obtained in confidence by the Board
- Monetary policy and other matters whose premature release could be used in financial speculation
- Personnel matters."
