Oslo, June 2021 NORGES BANK NORWAY’S FINANCIAL SYSTEM 2021 7 Introduction The financial system The financial system plays an important role in the economy, with three primary tasks: • providing consumers and businesses with borrowing and saving opportunities, • providing payment services and • managing risk. In a well-functioning financial system, these tasks are performed securely and efficiently. A system that is resilient to shocks reduces the probability of financial crises. The financial system consists of many different institutions, markets and infrastructures. In this report, the financial system is divided into financial markets, financial institutions and the financial infrastructure (Table 1). The users of the system are more or less all the members of society: businesses, public undertakings and most private individuals. The definition of the financial system can be expanded to include, for example, institu- tions and mechanisms that provide security for contracts that are entered into, supply reliable information for effective credit intermediation and risk management and perform other functions such as supervision, regulation, registration of ownership rights, account- ing, auditing, or credit ratings and other financial analyses. Chart 1 shows a simplified diagram of the financial system. Consumers, businesses and other undertakings with savings are shown in the box at the top. Consumers, businesses and other undertakings as borrowers are in the box at the bottom. The middle segment shows the financial system, where savings are channelled into investment through markets and undertakings. In practice, the participants are generally both savers and Table 1 1.

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.

DnB NOR’s financial results are described in the Group’s financial annual report. The report applies to the financial year 2006 and is DnB NOR’s second separate report on corporate social responsibility. As a rule, stated key figures apply as at 31 December of the relevant year. In addition, the report presents a number of targets and measures for corporate social responsibility and thus also serves as an action plan for 2007. The report encompasses the entire DnB NOR Group, including subsidiaries and brands such as Vital, Postbanken, Nordlandsbanken, Cresco etc. DnB NORD (established in cooperation with NORD/LB in 2005) and DnB NOR Monchebank in north-west Russia (acquired in 2006) are included where possible. Nevertheless, in a number of areas, DnB NORD and DnB NOR Monchebank are excluded due to lack of available data. The report is based on the internationally recognised reporting standard Global Reporting Ini- tiative (GRI).

    Bergen Bank, DNC Og Kreditkassen

    BERGEN BANK – MANGE BEKKER SMÅ GJØR EN STOR Å Av Svein Røer og Leif Bjornes Ovennevnte tittel er hentet fra 150 års jubileet til Bergen Bank i 1980, og gir et meget godt bilde på hvordan en storbank blir til. Historien frem til Bergen Banks etablering ved fusjon mellom de to store Bergensbankene Bergens Privatbank og Bergens Kreditbank i 1975 har omfattet mange fusjoner og oppkjøp av mindre forretnings- og privatbanker. Bergens Privatbank startet i 1855 og var en ren Bergens-bank frem til 1912, da den etablerte egen filial i Odda. Neste skritt tok Bergens Privatbank over til Østlandet ved fusjonen med Revisjonsbanken som hadde kontorer i Oslo, Sandvika, Lillestrøm og Sørumsand. Deretter følger mange fusjoner i årene frem til 1975. Bergens Kreditbank var opprinnelig Kreditkassens filial i Bergen frem til 1876. Dette året ble banken etablert og overtok filialen til Kreditkassen i Bergen. Mellomakten med Andresens Bank som ”Foreningsbanken” fra 1919 til 1928 var ikke vellykket og begge banker oppstod som selvstendige enheter igjen i 1928. Oversikten må ut fra dette deles i tre - røtter, Bergens Privatbanks, Bergens Kreditbanks og Kristiania Industri og Handelsbank, 1917. Overtatt av Bergens Bergen Banks. Kreditbank i 1948.

Jeg valgte å benytte fundamental verdsettelse som hoved metode, men har i tillegg også utført en komparativ verdsettelse som er ment å være som et supplement for verdiestimatet. Avhandlingen representeres av offentlig tilgjengelig informasjon. Jeg starter med å presentere Sparebank 1 SR-bank og gir en innføring i bransjen de forholder seg i. Deretter presenterer jeg relevant verdsettelsesteori med dets svakheter og styrker. Ved verdsettelse av en sparebank er det viktige hovedpunkter å ta hensyn til. Det første er klassifisering av hva som er driftsrelatert og hva som er av finansiell art. Det andre er reguleringer bankene må forholde seg til. Den tredje omhandler strenge regnskaps- og finansinstitusjonelle regler som avviker normalt for tradisjonelle bedrifter. Med disse punktene i bakhodet valgte jeg fundamental verdsettelse med fokus på kontantstrømmetoden og dividendemetoden. Den fundamentale analysen støttes av en strategisk og regnskapsanalyse som videre utgjør framtidsprognosene.
