FX.co ★ Norway’s Core Inflation Accelerates to 0.7% in February, More Than Doubling January Pace

Norway’s core inflation picked up markedly in February 2026, with the month‑over‑month indicator rising to 0.7%, up from 0.3% in January. The latest data, updated on 10 March 2026, show a clear acceleration in underlying price pressures when comparing February’s change to the previous month.

On a month‑over‑month basis, the January 2026 reading reflected a 0.3% increase in core prices versus December, while February’s 0.7% figure signals a stronger rise from January levels. The comparison underscores a shift from relatively moderate core inflation at the start of the year to a notably faster pace by February, potentially sharpening focus on the trajectory of underlying inflation dynamics in Norway.
