Slight decrease for assets in foreign countries

The largest non-financial companies had assets in foreign countries valued at NOK 846 billion by the end of the second quarter of 2007. This was NOK 14.5 billion, or 1.7 per cent, less than at the end of the first quarter of 2007.

Compared with the second quarter of 2006, the increase is NOK 87 billion, or 11 per cent. It is mainly the current assets (bank deposits, short-term receivables, securities, etc), that fluctuates between the quarters, while the value of fixed assets has increased through all quarters in 2006 and 2007. Fixed assets include investments in foreign group companies.

About the statistical basis

The statistics are based on a survey of the 500 largest non-financial companies. The size of the company is measured by assets and liabilities in foreign countries, foreign shares and foreign ownership.

 

The data are based on accounting legislation, and the values do not necessarily give a good picture of the real or market value of the assets.
