1The Norwegian institutional sector classification was revised on 1 January 2012 in line with the international classification. This change entails a break in the statistics from the 1st quarter 2012.
2From January 2008, new annual account regulation for insurance companies adapted to the new International FinancialReporting Standards (IFRS) was introduced. New regulation for life insurance was introduced at the same time. Bothchanges have had an impact on the content and presentation of the insurance statistics. The statistics from 2008 cannot be compared with those from previous years.
