Introduction 1.1 Background and context The first known organized chain in Norway operating as a franchise is said to be a textile wholesale chain, established in 1966.2 The term “franchise” was not used, but the system matched the description of a franchise system. Franchising can be described as a commercial development strategy based on an interdependent partnership between independent commercial entities: the franchisor and franchisees.3 This partnership is typically based on the transfer of a package of intellectual property rights relating to trademarks, trade names, shop signs, utility models, designs, copyrights, know-how or patents, to be exploited for the resale of goods or the provision of services to end users.4 The number of franchise systems, as organisational forms, increased in Norway during the 1970´s, with 183 systems operating as franchises by 1998.5 The number is still increasing, with an estimated 242 franchise systems in 2004 and 300 systems in 2016.6 Within the retail industry one third of local units are owned or hired by a franchisee.7 As a result of this growth, 1 The author wishes to thank Petra Sund-Norrgård, Stojan Arnerstål and René Franz Henschel for their valuable feedback and comments.

    Annual Report 2018 “EVERYTHING WE DO, WE DO TO MAKE LIFE IN WESTERN NORWAY EVEN BETTER!” When Sparebanken Vest was founded almost 200 years ago, it heralded a new way of thinking about banking. The bank was to be owned by its customers, and its objective was to help the many poor in society. The idea that challenges are best solved together was what made us, and it is still what drives us. Today, we have more than 290,000 owners, and everything we do, we do to make life in Western Norway even better. We aim to make life even better for those growing up and settling down. For those who need to break with tradition and go their own ways. For those who have a dream they want to pursue. For everyone who works hard and for business owners who create jobs in Western Norway. We will achieve this by caring about our customers, helping people where they are, being simple to bank with and by providing important advice along the way. This sense of community gives us a unique strength to deal with major challenges. Challenges that concern us all and that are decisive for our future. We can do it better together. Most of the photos used in the annual report are from the ‘Family Bank’. Sparebanken Vest follows customers through all the important phases of life and big and small events – in short, a friend through thick and thin. Photo: Anne Lise Nordheim.

  • A Four-Phase Model for the Sveconorwegian Orogeny, SW Scandinavia 43
    NORWEGIAN JOURNAL OF GEOLOGY A four-phase model for the Sveconorwegian orogeny, SW Scandinavia 43 A four-phase model for the Sveconorwegian orogeny, SW Scandinavia Bernard Bingen, Øystein Nordgulen & Giulio Viola Bingen, B., Nordgulen, Ø. & Viola, G.; A four-phase model for the Sveconorwegian orogeny, SW Scandinavia. Norwegian Journal of Geology vol. 88, pp 43-72. Trondheim 2008. ISSN 029-196X. The Sveconorwegian orogenic belt resulted from collision between Fennoscandia and another major plate, possibly Amazonia, at the end of the Mesoproterozoic. The belt divides, from east to west, into a Paleoproterozoic Eastern Segment, and four mainly Mesoproterozoic terranes trans- ported relative to Fennsocandia. These are the Idefjorden, Kongsberg, Bamble and Telemarkia Terranes. The Eastern Segment is lithologically rela- ted to the Transcandinavian Igneous Belt (TIB), in the Fennoscandian foreland of the belt. The terranes are possibly endemic to Fennoscandia, though an exotic origin for the Telemarkia Terrane is possible. A review of existing geological and geochronological data supports a four-phase Sveconorwegian assembly of these lithotectonic units. (1) At 1140-1080 Ma, the Arendal phase represents the collision between the Idefjorden and Telemarkia Terranes, which produced the Bamble and Kongsberg tectonic wedges. This phase involved closure of an oceanic basin, possibly mar- ginal to Fennoscandia, accretion of a volcanic arc, high-grade metamorphism and deformation in the Bamble and Kongsberg Terranes peaking in granulite-facies conditions at 1140-1125 Ma, and thrusting of the Bamble Terrane onto the Telemarkia Terrane probably at c. 1090-1080 Ma. (2) At 1050-980 Ma, the Agder phase corresponds to the main Sveconorwegian oblique (?) continent-continent collision.
