Norges Bank keeps interest rates unchanged
Interest rates were left unchanged at Norges Bank's Executive Board meeting on 10 January. Norges Bank's key rate, the sight deposit rate, therefore remains at 7.00 per cent. The overnight lending rate also remains unchanged.
Deputy Central Bank Governor Jarle Bergo says that in the light of recent trends in the economy and the current balance of risks, the probability that the next change in interest rates will be a reduction is the same as the probability of an increase.
