  • Lokalbanker Krever Retningsendring for Eika
    Lokalbanker krever retningsendring for Eika En gruppering bestående av 11 lokalbanker fra ulike deler av landet krever endring av Eikas strategiske retning og av avtaleverket som knytter dem til Eika Gruppen AS. De mener at kostnadsutviklingen i Eika ikke er bærekraftig for den enkelte lokalbank. - Alliansen av lokalbanker i Eika er viktig og vi ønsker å være del av den. Samtidig er vi nå mange lokalbanker fra hele landet som er så dypt bekymret over kostnadsutviklingen at vi ser oss nødt til å handle, sier Bjørn Asle Hynne, banksjef i Aasen Sparebank. Han er talsperson for grupperingen av 11 lokalbanker, som sammen står bak et krav om strategiske endringer i Eika-alliansen. I 2005 hadde Eika-bankene 18 prosent høyere kostnader målt som andel av inntektene, sammenlignet med DNB og SpareBank 1-bankene. Frem til 2017 har differansen vokst til over 50 prosent. - Vi er del av en allianse for at den skal styrke hver og en av lokalbankene, og dette er ett eksempel på en utvikling som bekymrer oss. Det at Eika Gruppen leverer høy egenkapitalavkastning har ulik betydning for den enkelte lokalbank. For mange er kostnadsnivået viktigere. Eika er for oss et strategisk samarbeid om innkjøp og utvikling, og ikke en finansiell investering, sier Hynne. Eika-alliansen består i dag av totalt 69 banker av ulik størrelse. De 11 bankene i lokalbank- grupperingen representerer 11,4 prosent av eierskapet i Eika Gruppen. Grupperingen peker blant annet på at IT-relaterte kostnader vokser på en måte som ikke er bærekraftig, og uten at det kommer lokalmiljøene og kundene tilstrekkelig til gode.

  • How Uniform Was the Old Norse Religion?
    II. Old Norse Myth and Society HOW UNIFORM WAS THE OLD NORSE RELIGION? Stefan Brink ne often gets the impression from handbooks on Old Norse culture and religion that the pagan religion that was supposed to have been in Oexistence all over pre-Christian Scandinavia and Iceland was rather homogeneous. Due to the lack of written sources, it becomes difficult to say whether the ‘religion’ — or rather mythology, eschatology, and cult practice, which medieval sources refer to as forn siðr (‘ancient custom’) — changed over time. For obvious reasons, it is very difficult to identify a ‘pure’ Old Norse religion, uncorroded by Christianity since Scandinavia did not exist in a cultural vacuum.1 What we read in the handbooks is based almost entirely on Snorri Sturluson’s representation and interpretation in his Edda of the pre-Christian religion of Iceland, together with the ambiguous mythical and eschatological world we find represented in the Poetic Edda and in the filtered form Saxo Grammaticus presents in his Gesta Danorum. This stance is more or less presented without reflection in early scholarship, but the bias of the foundation is more readily acknowledged in more recent works.2 In the textual sources we find a considerable pantheon of gods and goddesses — Þórr, Óðinn, Freyr, Baldr, Loki, Njo3rðr, Týr, Heimdallr, Ullr, Bragi, Freyja, Frigg, Gefjon, Iðunn, et cetera — and euhemerized stories of how the gods acted and were characterized as individuals and as a collective. Since the sources are Old Icelandic (Saxo’s work appears to have been built on the same sources) one might assume that this religious world was purely Old 1 See the discussion in Gro Steinsland, Norrøn religion: Myter, riter, samfunn (Oslo: Pax, 2005).

  • The Importance of Credit and Capital in the Norwegian Banking System During Crisis
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by NORA - Norwegian Open Research Archives The importance of credit and capital in the Norwegian banking system during crisis- A comparative study of the Norwegian banking crisis and the recent financial crisis Rasmus Grue Schøning Thesis for the degree Master of Economic Theory and Econometrics University of Oslo January 2011 P a g e ii | ” For the second time in seven years, the bursting of a major-asset bubble has inflicted great damage on world financial markets. In both cases, the equity bubble in 2000 and the credit bubble in 2007, central banks were asleep at the switch. The lack of monetary discipline has become a hallmark of unfettered globalization. Central banks have failed to provide a stable underpinning to world financial markets and to an increasingly asset-dependent global economy.” - Stephen Roach, Morgan Stanley “A bank is a place where they lend you an umbrella in fair weather and ask for it back when it begins to rain.” – Robert Frost P a g e | iii Preface The research for this thesis was done over the course of 2010 and it was written between August and December of that same year. The decision to write about the two most recent crises in the Norwegian banking industry was first and foremost inspired by a strong personal interest in the recent financial crisis. I find the economic organization of banks and how their operation affects the rest of the economy fascinating. In addition to five years of economic studies, much of the relevant technical background came from the course ECON 4335 The Economics of Banking.

  • Using Optimization and Simulation to Evaluate Differentiated Stroke Treatment
    Using optimization and simulation to evaluate differentiated stroke treatment Andreas Bergstrøm Aarnseth Erlend Moen Hov Industrial Economics and Technology Management Submission date: June 2018 Supervisor: Henrik Andersson, IØT Norwegian University of Science and Technology Department of Industrial Economics and Technology Management Preface This thesis concludes our Master of Science in Industrial Economics and Technology Manage- ment at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. The objective of this thesis is to implement a model that enables differentiated treatment paths for stroke patients based on their diagnosis. At the same time, the general demand for emergency resources must be cov- ered. By supplementing existing models and methods, optimization will be used to determine optimal allocation of the available emergency units. A comprehensive simulation program is also developed for this thesis. This is used to evaluate the performance of the different opti- mization solutions. The work on this Master’s Thesis in Managerial Economics and Operations Research (TIØ4905) was carried out in the Spring 2018. We would like to thank the personnel at the Ambulance Service at St. Olav Hospital for providing us with necessary data and valuable inputs. We also would like to thank our supervisor, Professor Henrik Andersson, at the Department of Industrial Economics and Technology Management, for constructive discussions and his in- valuable guidance. Trondheim, 2018-06-10 Andreas Bergstrøm Aarnseth Erlend Moen Hov i Sammendrag En av samfunnets viktigste oppgaver er å tilby et velfungerende helsevesen til sine innbyggere. En stor del av helsevesenet omhandler akuttmedisinske tjenester, et samlebegrep som innbe- fatter blant annet AMK-sentraler, ambulanser og luftambulanser.

    Judgment of 21 June 2001 serial number 4B/2001: 1. Jon Inge Sirum (et al. a total of 200 parties) (Advocate Ola Brekken) versus 1. Essand Reindeer Pasturing District and 2. Riast/Hylling Reindeer Pasturing District (Advocate Erik Keiserud). Justice Matningsdal: This case concerns a dispute as to whether Essand and Riast/Hylling Reindeer Pasturing Districts have common of pasture for their reindeer in privately owned unenclosed areas within the district boundaries in the Municipal Authority Area of Selbu in the county of Sør-Trøndelag. The areas in dispute The two districts were established by Royal Decree on 10 July 1894 under section 6 of what was called the Joint Lapp Act – the Act of 2 June 1883 concerning the Lapps in the United Kingdoms of Norway and Sweden. The districts have been retained unchanged under subsequent reindeer husbandry legislation. Riast and Hylling were originally separate districts, but for the last fifty or sixty years they have been considered and administered as one district. Essand covers an area of approximately 2,300 km2. In the east the boundary of the district follows the national border with Sweden. The southern boundary starts at the national border at Skardsfjellet [Mount Skard], and goes westwards from there to Lake Stugu in Tydal, where it follows the Rivers Tya and Nea to Lake Selbu, then follows the latter and the Rivers Tømra and Kleivåa over into the county of Nord-Trøndelag to the River Stjørdal, and thereafter follows the latter up through Hegra and Meråker back to the national border. Riast/Hylling covers an area of approximately 1,900 km2 and lies south of Essand.

  • Tectonic Features of an Area N.E. of Hegra, Nord-Trøndelag, and Their Regional Significance — Preliminary Notes by David Roberts
    Tectonic Features of an Area N.E. of Hegra, Nord-Trøndelag, and their regional Significance — Preliminary Notes By David Roberts Abstract Following brief notes on the low-grade metasediments occurring in an area near Hegra, 50 km east of Trondheim, the types of structures associated with three episodes of deformation of main Caledonian (Silurian) age are described. An outline of the suggested major stmctural picture is then presented. In this the principal structure is seen as a WNW-directed fold-nappe developed from the inverted western limb of the central Stjørdalen Anticline. A major eastlward closing recumbent syncline underlies this nappe-like structure. These initial structures were then deformed by at least twofur ther folding episodes. In conclusion, comparisons are noted between the ultimate fold pattern, the suggested evolution of these folds and H. Ramberg's experimentally produced orogenic structures. Introduction A survey of this particular area, situated north of the valley of Stjørdalen, east from Trondheim, was begun during the 1965 field-season and progressed during parts of the summers of 1966 and 1967 in conjunction with a mapping programme led by Statsgeolog Fr. Chr. Wolff further east in this same seg ment of the Central Norwegian Caledonides. Further geological mapping is contemplated, the aim being to eventually complete the 1 : 100,000 sheet 'Stjørdal' (rectangle 47 C). In view of the time factor involved in the comple tion of this work, and the renewed interest being devoted to the geological problems of the Trondheim region (Peacey 1964, Oftedahl 1964, Wolff 1964 and 1967, Torske 1965, Siedlecka 1967, Ramberg 1967), some notes on the tectonics of the Hegra area would seem appropriate at this stage.

  • Masteroppgave I Sosiologi Kan Fortone Seg Som En Ensom Og Frustrerende Prosess Etter Hundrevis Av Timer Foran Skjermen I Dunkelt Lesesallampelys
    ”Terrarisme” og finansiell alkymi – om den kommunale sektorens finansialisering Tomas Hostad Løding Masteroppgave Høsten 2010 Sosiologisk institutt, Universitetet i Bergen Forord Å skrive en masteroppgave i sosiologi kan fortone seg som en ensom og frustrerende prosess etter hundrevis av timer foran skjermen i dunkelt lesesallampelys. Men det er og en interessant, utviklende og intellektuelt stimulerende muligheten til faglig fordyping i en selvvalgt tematikk. En viktig bit av denne fordypingen er de daglige, mer eller mindre faglige, diskusjonene og kranglene med kollegaer på pauserommet i Sofie Lindstrøms hus. En stor takk derfor til alle venner, medstudenter og familie som har diskutert og oppmuntret gjennom hele denne perioden. En like stor takk rettes til Odd Gåsdal som har lest, korrigert, motivert og konstruktivt veiledet denne oppgaven. Det har vært til uvurderlig hjelp. Men en takk må også oversendes mine informanter. Det er ikke en selvfølge at travle ordførere skal ta seg tid til å åpne kontorene sine for en masterstudent. Spesielt gjelder dette de som i månedene forut for våre møter har hatt mer en nok uønsket oppmerksomhet. Uten deres medvirkning hadde ikke denne oppgaven vært mulig.
