Norway has ridden out the financial crisis better than most OECD countries, with a shallower recession and unemployment likely to peak below 4%. Its advantageous fiscal position made room for a massive budgetary stimulus complementing steep cuts in interest rates and substantial liquidity measures. The key challenge is now to withdraw the extraordinary policy support sufficiently early to avoid overheating. Norway’s bold embrace of green growth objectives deserves praise, and the search for more cost effective ways to pursue these objectives must continue. |
