Theory – and Predictions of the Norwegian Krone against the Euro Per Halvor Vale Norwegian University of Life Sciences, SChool of EConomiCs and Business ABSTRACT The paper analyses changes in the exchange rate of the Norwegian krone (NOK) as measured against the Euro, with the purpose of forecasting future exchange rates. The analysis is based on an error correction model. The model is given an autoregressive form. From the model is derived “out-of-sample forecast”. The predictions are compared with forecasts obtained from a Random Walk model. The empirical findings show that even though the economic model identifies several important explanatory variables, the Random Walk model performs better.

  • The Krone Exchange Rate and Competitiveness in the Business Sector
    Svein Gjedrem: The krone exchange rate and competitiveness in the business sector Address by Mr Svein Gjedrem, Governor of Norges Bank (Central Bank of Norway), to the Federation of Norwegian Process Industries, Oslo, 29 April 2004. The text below may differ slightly from the actual presentation. The address is based on the assessments presented at Norges Bank’s press conference following the Executive Board’s monetary policy meeting on 21 April, Inflation Report 1/04 and on previous speeches. The charts can be found on the Norges Bank’s website. * * * The primary objective of monetary policy is to ensure nominal stability. There were wide fluctuations in the Norwegian economy in the 1970s and 1980s. Economic developments were marked by high and variable inflation. Inflation rose gradually and it took a long time before it fell. The absence of a nominal anchor was one of the main reasons behind these pronounced swings in the Norwegian economy. With a policy of low interest rates and devaluations, inflation took root. Nominal interest rates were kept at a low level even though inflation and the value of tax-deductible interest expenditure rose. Frequent devaluations from 1976 were not able to prevent a decline in the manufacturing sector. On the contrary, they proved to be self-reinforcing. The wide fluctuations culminated in a credit boom in the mid-1980s, and a rise in costs as a consequence of the spring 1986 wage settlement. A pronounced downturn and high unemployment followed at the end of the 1980s. In order to achieve nominal stability, monetary policy must provide a nominal anchor.

  • Svein Gjedrem: Monetary Policy from a Historical Perspective (Central
    Svein Gjedrem: Monetary policy from a historical perspective Speech by Mr Svein Gjedrem, Governor of Norges Bank (Central Bank of Norway), at the conference to mark the 100th anniversary of the Association of Norwegian Economists, Oslo, 16 September 2008. The text may differ slightly from the actual presentation. * * * Introduction Let me begin by offering my congratulations to the Association of Norwegian Economists on its 100th anniversary. One hundred is a respectable age. In Norway, the introduction of a university degree in economics was certainly an important stimulus in the first part of the last century. In the period since the Second World War, major changes in society have increased the demand for expertise in the field of economics. And economists are constantly gaining new insights. This also applies to the field of central banking, even though one of the fundamental central bank responsibilities – to safeguard the value of money – was as important 100 years ago as it is today. Monetary policy in Norway has changed considerably over the past 100 years. The government, with the support of the Storting, has now defined an objective for monetary policy of low and stable inflation. Norges Bank sets its interest rate with a view to achieving price stability. This has not always been the case. Monetary policy in Norway Norges Bank was established in 1816 and was placed directly under the Storting (Norwegian parliament). The government had no control or influence. The Bank was authorised to issue banknotes that were to serve as legal tender. To ensure stability in the value of money, the banknotes were to be redeemable in silver, although this was not achieved until 1842.

  • To What Extent Can Movements in the Krone Exchange Rate Be Explained by the Interest Rate Differential?
    Chapter 6 – To what extent can movements in the krone exchange rate be explained by the interest rate differential? Arne Kloster, Raymond Lokshall and Øistein Røisland This article analyses, within the framework of uncovered interest parity, the extent to which movements in the krone exchange rate since November 2001 can be ascribed to the interest rate differential. We find that changes in the interest rate differential can explain some of the movements in the exchange rate, but that other factors have also played a role. Among other things, it appears that the risk premium on investments in Norwegian krone was reduced through the same period that the Norwegian krone appreciated. 1. Background The Norwegian krone strengthened considerably from the start of 2001, but then weakened again slightly. In this period, exchange rate movements have largely coincided with changes in the interest rate differential, see Chart 1. It may therefore seem obvious to conclude that movements in the krone exchange rate can to a large extent by explained by the interest rate differential. However, the fact that changes in the krone exchange rate have coincided with the trend in the interest rate differential in qualitative terms does not necessarily mean that the interest rate differential can explain the extent of these changes. In order to examine how much of the ex- change rate movements can be ascribed to the increase in the interest rate differential alone, we have divided the period into two sub-periods: 1) 1 November 2001 to 4 November 2002, and 2) 4 November 2002 to 27 March 2003.

  • Economic Trends
    Norwegian economy Economic Survey 1/2015 Economic trends Perspectives What many people had feared became a reality in 2014: a sharp fall in oil prices that may be permanent. From an average of USD 110 per barrel in the period 2011 to July 2014, oil prices plummeted, via a trough at USD 45 in mid-January this year, to around USD 60 in early March. The strengthening of the US dollar and weakening of the Norwegian krone reduce the fall in pri- ces measured in Norwegian kroner. At the time of writing, the oil price measured in kroner is 25 per cent less than the average price in 2013. In isolation, the price fall will reduce income ear- ned in the petroleum industry by about 30 per cent compared with 2014. This price effect alone will bring about a nominal reduction in gross domestic product (GDP) of 6 per cent. Norway›s fall in income will be somewhat lower because of foreign ownership. New oil production tech- nologies make it highly likely that oil prices will remain substantially lower than in 2011–2013, and than indicated by earlier projections. The fall in oil prices has two main effects on the Norwegian economy: the country›s income is reduced, and demand from the petroleum industry for deliveries from Norwegian companies falls as a result of weakened profitability. The strength of these effects naturally depends on the size and duration of the fall in oil prices. The size of the fall depends on what is being compared. From the record price of NOK 630 per barrel prior to the summer of 2014, our projections imply a NOK 170 per barrel fall in prices in 2015, easing off to NOK 105 in 2017.

  • The Krone and the Interest Rate
    The krone and the interest rate By Central Bank Governor Svein Gjedrem, Norges Bank, Dagens Næringsliv, 6 July 2001. On March 29, the Government approved a new operational target for monetary policy. Norges Bank shall set the key rate with a view to maintaining low and stable inflation. The inflation target is set at 21/2 per cent. We no longer have a specific exchange rate target for the Norwegian krone. The krone is floating. Nevertheless, developments in the krone exchange rate are still very important when Norges Bank sets the interest rate. This is due to a number of factors: Changes in the krone exchange rate affect prices measured in NOK for imported consumer goods and services. Bearing in mind that imported goods are used in Norwegian production, the rise in prices for imported goods and services combined determine nearly 40 per cent of consumer price inflation. Developments in the krone have an impact on earnings in companies in the internationally exposed sector, which have also traditionally been wage leaders. Changes in the exchange rate affect the competitiveness of Norwegian business and industry as well as demand at home and abroad. Thus, the activity level in the economy is affected. As the Norwegian and international money and capital markets become more integrated, changes in the exchange rate will be increasingly important. Changes in the exchange rate generate wealth gains and losses for Norwegian households and enterprises. The value of the Norwegian krone will vary, as exchange rates do in most countries. There are many reasons for fluctuations in the exchange rate.

The King acts as Head of State and the Prime Minister as Head of the Government. The Parliament ( Storting ) is composed of 169 members elected every four years. Among the 12 Parlia - mentary Standing Committees, there is the Standing Committee on Local Government and Public Administration, which is responsible for local government legislation (e.g. regional and rural policy; block grants to municipalities and counties; regional planning; government administration; personnel policy for state employees including pay, etc.) The Norwegian Constitution makes no reference to local self-government. In 1837, local democracy and local self-rule was established and since then, the legal framework has been developed through several laws such as the Local Government Act of 1992 which states that the role of local democratic bodies is more administrative than legislative.

  • Sweden, Norway & Denmark Information
    Sweden, Norway & Denmark Information Sweden, Norway and Denmark are highlighted by charming, pristine cities, spectacular fjords, and a smorgasbord of cultural traditions. From Viking lore to pop culture icons and unmatched hospitality, these Nordic lands are sure to enthrall and delight. And with surroundings as serene as this, you’ll come to understand how they became host to the world’s most revered peace prize. History As merchant seamen, well known for their far-reaching trade, the Nordic Vikings dominated Europe in the eighth and ninth centuries. Many historians credit the Vikings with the first European discovery of the Americas, with the exploits of Leif Ericsson around 1000. In 1397, Queen Margaret of Denmark united Sweden (which included Finland), Norway, Denmark, Iceland, Greenland and other territories into the Kalmar Union. Tension within the countries gradually led to open conflict and the union split in the early sixteenth century. A long-lived rivalry ensued with Norway and Denmark on one side and Sweden and Finland on the other. During the seventeenth century, Sweden-Finland emerged as a great power. Its contributions during the Thirty Years’ War under Gustavus Adolphus determined the political, as well as religious, balance of power in Europe. At its zenith in 1658, Sweden ruled several provinces of Denmark, as well as parts of present-day Germany, Russia, Estonia and Latvia. In 1813, Sweden joined the allies against Napoleon, which resulted in the acquisiton of Norway from Denmark (an ally of Napoleon). The merger lasted until 1905, when Norway peaceably gained its independence. Sweden has not participated in any war in almost two centuries.
