English The Nobel Prize is a set of annual international awards bestowed in several categories by Swedish and Norwegian institutions in recognition of academic, cultural, or scientific advances. The will of the Swedish chemist, engineer and industrialist Alfred Nobel established the five Nobel prizes in 1895. The prizes in Chemistry, Literature, Peace, Physics, and Physiology or Medicine were first awarded in 1901. The prizes are widely regarded as the most prestigious awards available in their respective fields.
In 1968, Sveriges Riksbank, Sweden's central bank, established the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel. The award is based on a donation received by the Nobel Foundation in 1968 from Sveriges Riksbank on the occasion of the bank’s 300th anniversary. The first Prize in Economic Sciences was awarded to Ragnar Frisch and Jan Tinbergen in 1969. The Prize in Economic Sciences is awarded by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, Stockholm, Sweden, according to the same principles as for the Nobel Prizes that have been awarded since 1901.
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awards the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, the Nobel Prize in Physics, and the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel; the Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institute awards the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine; the Swedish Academy grants the Nobel Prize in Literature; and the Norwegian Nobel Committee awards the Nobel Peace Prize.
Between 1901 and 2018, the Nobel Prizes (and the Prizes in Economic Sciences, from 1969 on) were awarded 590 times to 935 people and organizations. With some receiving the Nobel Prize more than once, this makes a total of 27 organizations and 908 individuals. The prize ceremonies take place annually in Stockholm, Sweden (with the exception of the Peace Prize ceremony, which is held in Oslo, Norway). Each recipient (known as a "laureate") receives a gold medal, a diploma, and a sum of money that has been decided by the Nobel Foundation. (As of 2017, each prize is worth 9,000,000 SEK, or about US$1,110,000, €944,000, or £836,000.) Medals made before 1980 were struck in 23-carat gold, and later in 18-carat green gold plated with a 24-carat gold coating.
The prize is not awarded posthumously; however, if a person is awarded a prize and dies before receiving it, the prize may still be presented. A prize may not be shared among more than three individuals, although the Nobel Peace Prize can be awarded to organizations of more than three people.

Svenska Nobelpriset är årliga internationella utmärkelser, som av tre svenska och en norsk institution tilldelas personer som "gjort mänskligheten den största nytta" inom fysik, kemi, fysiologi eller medicin, litteratur och fredsarbete. Priserna fastställdes av dynamitens uppfinnare, Alfred Nobel, genom hans testamente från 1895, och delades ut första gången 1901. Varje nobelpris anses som den mest prestigefyllda utmärkelsen inom sitt område.
Priserna delas ut i Sveriges huvudstad Stockholm, undantaget fredspriset som istället utdelas i Oslo, Norge. År 1968 instiftade Sveriges Riksbank en utmärkelse som ofta förknippas med nobelpriset, Sveriges Riksbanks pris i ekonomisk vetenskap till Alfred Nobels minne. Detta pris delades ut för första gången 1969. Även om det inte officiellt är ett nobelpris har dess tillkännagivande och utdelande gjorts tillsammans med de andra priserna.
Nobelpriset i fysik och kemi, samt priset i ekonomi till Alfred Nobels minne, utses av Kungliga Vetenskapsakademien. Nobelförsamlingen vid Karolinska institutet utser nobelpristagare i fysiologi eller medicin, och Svenska Akademien utser nobelpristagare i litteratur. Nobels fredspris utses inte av en svensk organisation utan av den Norska Nobelkommittén.
Varje mottagare, eller pristagare, tilldelas en guldmedalj, ett diplom och en summa pengar som är beroende på Nobelstiftelsens inkomster det året. År 2012 var varje pris värt 8 miljoner kronor. Priset kan inte tilldelas postumt, ett pris får heller inte delas av fler än tre personer. Men om en person tilldelas ett pris och dör före utdelningen kan priset ändå tilldelas. Det genomsnittliga antalet pristagare per pris har successivt ökat under 1900-talet.
