Assets in foreign countries increase
At the end of third quarter 2006, the largest non-financial Norwegian companies had assets in foreign countries valued at NOK 843 billion. This was an increase of nearly NOK 106 billion, or 14.4 per cent, from the second quarter of 2006.
The value of assets varies from quarter to quarter, and compared with the first quarter of 2006, the increase is NOK 58.6 billion, or 7.5 per cent. It is mainly the value of current assets that varies between the quarters. The value of fixed assets has increased through all quarters since 2005.
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, shares in foreign countries and shares owned by foreigners.
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. |
