  • Three Episodes of Financial Fragility in Norway Since the 1890S by Karsten R Gerdrup*
    BIS Working Papers No 142 Three episodes of financial fragility in Norway since the 1890s by Karsten R Gerdrup* Monetary and Economic Department October 2003 * Central Bank of Norway (Norges Bank) BIS Working Papers are written by members of the Monetary and Economic Department of the Bank for International Settlements, and from time to time by other economists, and are published by the Bank. The views expressed in them are those of their authors and not necessarily the views of the BIS.

ISSN 1020-0959 (print) ISSN 1682-7678 (online) Abstract This paper provides for the first time a comparative study of three major banking crises in Norway (1899-1905, 1920-28 and 1988-92), and presents financial and macroeconomic data spanning more than 130 years. Financial sector development appears to be closely linked to booms and busts in economic activity during these years. The boom periods that preceded each of the three crises all have some common features: they were characterised by significant bank expansion, considerable asset price inflation and increased indebtedness. The non-financial sector increased its debt only slightly more than its income during the first two boom periods, but subsequent deflation increased its debt burden.

  • SUMMARY the Christiania Bank Group's Net Profit for the First Nine Months of 2001 Amounted to NOK 2117 Million
    CHRISTIANIA BANK 3rd QUARTER 2001 SUMMARY The Christiania Bank Group’s net profit for the first nine months of 2001 amounted to NOK 2,117 million (NOK 1,700 million), equivalent to NOK 3.84 per share (NOK 3.08 per share). Net profit for the third quarter of 2001 amounted to NOK 274 million (NOK 653 million), equivalent to NOK 0.50 per share (NOK 1.18 per share). Operating profit before loan losses and profit on long-term securities for the first nine months totalled NOK 2,293 million (NOK 2,201 million), and the equivalent figure for the third quarter alone was NOK 625 million (NOK 756 million). Total income is somewhat lower than expected due to losses on stock trading and reduced income from commissions and fees from securities trading, while total operating costs were largely in line with expectations. Loan losses and provisions for the first nine months amounted to NOK 384 million (write-back of NOK 103 million), of which the third quarter accounted for NOK 222 million (write-back of NOK 146 million). The profit reported for the first nine months corresponds to a return on the Group’s equity of 16.1 per cent (14.3 per cent) on an annualised basis. Net loans to customers increased by NOK 2.5 billion in the third quarter, equivalent to 1.7 percent. Growth for the year to date stands at NOK 4.4 billion or 2.5%. After adjusting for the sale of Christiania Bank's London branch, net loans to customers increased by approximately NOK 10.3 billion in the first nine months.
