FX.co ★ Norway’s Central Bank Swings From Net FX Seller to Buyer With NOK 300M September Position

Norway’s central bank has reversed its foreign currency operations, shifting from net sales to net purchases of currency, according to the latest data updated on 31 August 2026. The indicator for central bank currency purchases, which had previously stood at -350.0 million in August 2026, has moved to 300.0 million in September 2025.

The negative figure in August 2026 reflected net foreign currency selling by the central bank, while the September 2025 reading shows a period of net buying totaling 300.0 million. This swing in the indicator highlights a notable shift in the central bank’s foreign exchange activity between the two reported periods, marking a move from reducing to accumulating foreign currency holdings over time.
