Norway’s central bank reduced its net foreign currency purchases in February 2026, with the indicator improving to NOK -600.0 million from NOK -650.0 million in January 2026. The shift points to a modest narrowing in the central bank’s net foreign exchange deficit over the period.
The change indicates that while Norges Bank remains a net buyer of foreign currency on balance, the scale of net purchases has slightly decreased compared with the previous month. The latest figures, covering February 2026, were last updated on 30 January 2026.
