The Executive Board’s strategy
The key policy rate should be in the interval 4¾ - 5¾% in
the period to the publication of the next Monetary Policy
Report on 13 March 2008, unless the Norwegian
economy is exposed to major shocks. Given the inflation
target, we will be mindful of the effects of higher interest
rates on the krone exchange rate when inflation is low.

The Executive Board’s strategy
The key policy rate should be in the interval 4¾ - 5¾% in
the period to the publication of the next Monetary Policy
Report on 13 March 2008, unless the Norwegian
economy is exposed to major shocks. Given the inflation
target, we will be mindful of the effects of higher interest
rates on the krone exchange rate when inflation is low.
