Yes BankID is the real MVP of digital systems, I heard some talks about the EU making one valid for the whole block. Hopefully it will fix all the countries.Everything is done through BankID in swedish-only institutions.
Put house on sale? bankid. Book a doctor appointment? bankid. Login to bank? Bankid. Open bank account? bankid. Sign contracts? bankid.
Heck I moved my pension (like a lot of money) to a different institution by just using BankID. Didn't have to call/email anyone, the process took 5 minutes (with about a month to actually process the transaction).

The dominant but private BankID doesn't satisfy all security requirements for the EU's digital identity wallet. It just isn't profitable. The government is now working on a public government eID with a higher security standard, but many Swedes might still be left out since adoption will take some time. This is one of many reasons why eIDs shouldn't be run by for-profits corporations, and sadly nothing would likely have happened without pressure from the EU.
