      Berge, Tor Oddvar; Vatne, Bjørn Helge (Economic Commentaries;4/2009, Others, 2009)
      Household debt growth has been high over the past 8‐9 years and it has been far higher than growth in disposable income. As a result, the household interest burden has risen sharply and is now at a historically high level ...

    • Bank Lending to the Commercial Real Estate Sector - a Source of Systemic Risk?

      Utlån til næringseiendom utgjør nesten halvparten av bankenes utlån til ikke- finansielle foretak. Disse lånene har normalt lave tap i gode tider, men har vist seg som en av de største kildene til tap i bankene under ...

      Til tross for pandemien var boligprisveksten høy gjennom store deler av 2020. Lavere utlånsrenter, endringer i boligpreferanser og begrenset tilbud av nye boliger har bidratt til økt prispress, især i Oslo. Våre analyser ...

      Dahl, Geir Arne; Vatne, Bjørn Helge (Economic Commentaries;12/2012, Others, 2012)

      Gjennomsnittsgjelden blant norske husholdninger har økt betydelig over tid. En dekomponering av gjeldsveksten viser at dette i stor grad gjenspeiler økt inntekt og økte boligverdier. For boligeiere har gjeldsveksten også ...
