Inflation expectations appear to be firmly anchored, and the increase in capacity utilisation suggests that inflation will pick up further out.
Inflasjonsforventningene synes godt forankret, og økningen i kapasitetsutnyttingen tilsier at prisveksten etter hvert vil ta seg opp.
The changes in the outlook and the balance of risks imply a somewhat earlier increase in the key policy rate than projected in the June Report.

Uncertainty surrounding the effects of monetary policy suggests a cautious approach to interest rate setting, also when it becomes appropriate to increase the key policy rate.
Usikkerheten om virkningene av pengepolitikken taler for å gå varsomt frem, også når det blir aktuelt å heve styringsrenten.

A persistent rise in household debt ratios and high property price inflation over a long period suggest that financial imbalances have built up.
Vedvarende oppgang i husholdningenes gjeldsbelastning og sterk vekst i eiendomspriser over lengre tid tyder på at finansielle ubalanser har bygd seg opp.

The address is based on the assessments presented at Norges Bank's press conference following the Executive Board's monetary policy meeting on 30 October and on previous speeches.
Foredraget bygger på vurderingene gitt i Norges Banks presskonferanse etter rentemøtet i Hovedstyret 30. oktober og tidligere foredrag.
Norway has a petroleum-based economy.
Norge er en oljeøkonomi.
Our petroleum revenues provide us with an economic starting point that many other countries do not have.
Oljeinntektene gir oss et økonomisk utgangspunkt som mange andre land ikke har.
How are we to live (well) with this petroleum?
Hvordan skal vi leve (godt) med oljen?
This question presents a number of challenges with respect to our economic policy.
Dette spørsmålet stiller den økonomiske politikken ovenfor flere utfordringer.
Our petroleum wealth must be distributed across generations in an appropriate way.
Rikdommen må fordeles mellom generasjoner på en god måte.
This means that the authorities must be disciplined and apply long-term considerations in their spending.
Det innebærer at myndighetsutøverne må ha disiplin i pengebruken, og vurdere denne i lys av langsiktige hensyn.
The flow of revenues from petroleum activities will vary.
Størrelsen på inntektsstrømmen fra oljevirksomheten varierer.
This may cause substantial variation in the demand directed at the Norwegian economy, and may amplify cyclical fluctuations.
Det kan gi store utslag i etterspørselsimpulsene rettet mot norsk økonomi og kan bidra til å forsterke konjunktursvingninger.
The use of petroleum revenues influences the competitiveness of Norwegian manufacturing.
Bruk av oljeinntekter påvirker konkurranseevnen for norsk industri.
Large fluctuations in the use of revenues may have major consequences for the operating environment of internationally exposed industries.
Store svingninger i inntektsbruken kan få store konsekvenser for rammebetingelsene i konkurranseutsatte næringer.
Therefore it is important that we succeed in maintaining an industry structure that promotes learning, innovation and development.
Det er derfor viktig at vi klarer å beholde en næringsstruktur som fremmer læring, nyskapning og utvikling.
Petroleum activities constitute an important part of the Norwegian economy.
Petroleumsvirksomheten utgjør en betydelig del av norsk økonomi.
In recent years petroleum revenues have amounted to 25-30 per cent of government income.
De siste årene har oljeinntektene utgjort 25-30 prosent av statens inntekter.
A sound economic policy and high oil prices have contributed to the highest budget surpluses recorded in any OECD country.
Fornuftig økonomisk politikk og høy oljepris har samlet bidratt til de høyeste overskuddene på budsjettbalansen som er registrert i noe OECD-land.
Even in 1998, when the oil price was down to USD 10 per barrel, we had a surplus of 4 per cent of GDP measured by government net lending.
Selv i 1998, da oljeprisen var nede i 10 dollar fatet, hadde vi et overskudd på 4 prosent av BNP målt ved statens nettofinansinvesteringer.
The experiences of other countries show that an abundance of natural resources may be a mixed blessing.
Erfaringene fra andre land viser at store naturrikdommer kan være en blandet velsignelse.
Societies that suddenly gain access to wealth have a tendency to spend the money and then fall into decline.
Samfunn som plutselig får tilgang på store ressurser, har en tendens til å bruke pengene og så forvitre.
The explanation may be that time and resources are spent on seizing as large a share as possible of the wealth.
Forklaringer på dette kan være at en slik tilgang fører til at tid og ressurser rettes mot å kare til seg en så stor andel som mulig av rikdommen.
Moreover, easy acquisition of wealth often erodes the incentive for innovation and work.
I tillegg vil lettjent rikdom ofte føre til svekket insentiv til innovasjon og arbeid.
The result will be a weakening of the internationally exposed sector.
Resultatet blir svekkelse av den konkurranseutsatte delen av næringslivet.
This is not conducive to the creation of value in the future, because a large exposed sector is more favourable for learning and development than a small one.
Dette er i seg selv uheldig for fremtidig verdiskapning fordi det skapes mer læring og utvikling i en stor konkurranseutsatt sektor enn i en liten.
Historical experience therefore points to the importance of having a decision-making system as a safeguard against special interest groups acquiring a strong measure of control over the petroleum wealth.
Historiske erfaringer sier dermed at det er viktig å ha et beslutningssystem som gir vern mot at særinteresser tilriver seg sterk kontroll over petroleumsformuen.
In addition we must maintain and develop incentives for acquiring new knowledge and engaging in innovative work.
I tillegg må vi bevare og utvikle insentiver til erverv av ny kunnskap og drive nyskapningsarbeid.
It is also important that we take up the question of wealth distribution across generations.
Det er også viktig at vi forholder oss til spørsmålet om fordeling mellom generasjonene.
The most important part of Norway's national wealth is not the country's petroleum, but the value of its labour force.
Den største delen av Norges nasjonalformue er ikke oljen, men verdien av arbeidskraften i landet.
The substantial petroleum revenues now coming to us are not revenues in the usual sense, but the results of converting pre-existing petroleum wealth into financial wealth.
De store oljeinntektene vi nå mottar er ikke inntekter i vanlig forstand, men omplassering av petroleumsformue til finansformue.
Thus our petroleum revenues are not making us wealthier.
I lys av dette gjør ikke oljeinntekten oss rikere.
A misconception of this kind could easily have a negative effect on our other wealth.
En slik forestilling vil lett kunne påvirke den øvrige formuen negativt.
On 29 March 2001, the Stoltenberg Government issued new guidelines for monetary policy and presented a guideline for fiscal policy.
29. mars i fjor fastsatte Regjeringen Stoltenberg nye retningslinjer for pengepolitikken og la fram en handlingsregel for finanspolitikken.
The fiscal policy guideline implies that, over time, the central government budget deficit shall be equivalent to the expected real return on the Government Petroleum Fund.
Handlingsregelen for finanspolitikken ville innebære at underskuddet på statsbudsjettet over tid skal svare til den forventede realavkastningen av petroleumsfondet.
The fiscal guideline was adhered to in the budget for 2002 and in the draft budget for 2003.
Handlingsregelen ble fulgt opp i budsjettet for 2002 og i forslag til budsjett for 2003.
The fiscal guideline implies that the non-oil deficit will increase in the years ahead.
Handlingsregelen innebærer at underskuddet utenom oljeinntektene skal øke i årene fremover.
This will provide a stimulus each year.
Det vil gi en stimulans hvert år.
However, an unpredictable and more expansionary fiscal policy than that implied by the guidelines would have resulted in greater uncertainty.
Men en uforutsigbar og mer ekspansiv finanspolitikk enn handlingsregelen tilsier, ville gitt økt usikkerhet
To preserve the balance in the Norwegian economy, the phasing in of petroleum revenues must be offset by a tightening of monetary policy.
For å bevare balansen i norsk økonomi må innfasingen av oljeinntekter i økonomien motvirkes av en strammere pengepolitikk enn ellers.
It is also important to avoid deflation - falling prices - because this often accompanies and amplifies a downturn.
Det er også viktig å unngå deflasjon - eller nedgang i prisene, fordi det ofte går hånd i hånd med å forsterke nedgangstider.
We have had four periods of very high inflation over the past 100 years: the two world wars; the Korean War and a 15-year period from the first half of the 1970s to the second half of the 1980s.
Vi har hatt fire perioder med virkelig høy inflasjon de siste 100 årene: Under de to verdenskrigene og Koreakrigen, samt en 15 års periode fra første halvdel av 1970-årene til andre halvdel av 1980-årene.
In Norway, very high inflation is a wartime phenomenon and a 1970s and 80s phenomenon.
Virkelig høy inflasjon er i Norge et krigsfenomen og et 1970- og 80-tallsfenomen.
In the 1970s and 80s, inflation accelerated gradually.
I 1970- og 80-årene tiltok inflasjonen gradvis.
History shows that higher growth and lower unemployment cannot ultimately be achieved through high inflation.
Historien viser at vi i lengden ikke får høyere vekst og lavere arbeidsledighet i bytte mot økt inflasjon.
A monetary policy that contributes to inflation does not create higher economic growth.
En pengepolitikk som bidrar til inflasjon, skaper ikke økt økonomisk vekst.
The Norwegian economy was without a nominal anchor under the policy of low interest rates and devaluations in the 1970s and 80s.
Norsk økonomi manglet et nominelt ankerfeste under lavrente- og devalueringsperioden på 1970- og 80-tallet.
With free flow of capital, deep capital markets and the phasing of petroleum revenues into the Norwegian economy, inflation targeting is the appropriate regime for setting interest rates.
Med fri flyt av kapital, dype kapitalmarkeder og innfasingen av oljeinntektene i norsk økonomi er det riktig å styre renten etter et inflasjonsmål.
