What it measures

This is Norges Bank’s decision on its policy rate, which influences borrowing costs across Norway. Markets compare the announced rate with expectations and pay close attention to the bank’s explanation of inflation, growth and future moves; its inflation target is 2%.

Why it moves the NOK

A higher-than-expected rate usually supports the krone by increasing the return on NOK assets and signalling tighter policy. The decision and guidance are major NOK drivers, although the guidance can outweigh an already-expected rate move.
