In Norway, it has been appropriate to start winding down the unconventional measures earlier than in other countries: In recent months, Norges Bank has not supplied liquidity through the currency swap lines or liquidity in foreign currency. Loans in NOK at long maturities have not been provided since February. Surplus liquidity in the banking system was increased to more than NOK 100 billion, but is now close to a more normal level. This motivates banks to revert to money market funding. The swap arrangement involving covered bonds (OMF) in exchange for government securities has made an essential contribution to securing banks long-term funding. The first signs that the covered bond market was beginning to function appeared in spring. The minimum price in the swap arrangement has been raised by 0.9 percentage point, from NIBOR-0.2 percentage point to NIBOR+0.7 percentage point. Use of the arrangement is currently being phased out. Norges Bank eased its collateral requireme 13
