Revised National Budget 2012

- Economic activity in Norway has held up well in 2012, despite the global economic slowdown. Unemployment is expected to remain at the current low level. In the revision of the 2012 Budget, the Government emphasizes the need for fiscal constraint to reduce the pressure on the exchange rate and exposed mainland industries. Increasing interest rates with widening spreads could lead to a stronger krone exchange rate. That would be most unfortunate for industries exposed to international competition, says Finance Minister Sigbjørn Johnsen. [Ministry of Finance, 15.05.2012]
