    The "Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel" is awarded by the same committee as the actual Nobel Prizes though, so it's close.

      The prize is real insofar as they award a prize, but it’s a little like if Netflix paid the Motion Picture Academy to award an Oscar for Best Streaming Service.
