Prices and fees in Norges Bank's settlement system for 2018
[NOT IN FORCE]
Banks pay to participate in Norges Bank's settlement system (NBO) in accordance with the terms and conditions for account management, collateralisation and participation in NBO. Prices for settlement services are set to cover banks' share of the costs of implementing and operating the settlement system.
The total costs for settlement services calculated for 2018 are at approximately the same level as for previous years. The prices for 2017 will therefore remain unchanged in 2018. The fees for breaches etc. of the terms and conditions for account management, collateralisation and participation in NBO will also remain unchanged in 2018.
Fixed prices per month are payable monthly and will be debited each bank's account in NBO automatically on the second banking day in the following month. Other prices and fees will be invoiced or debited separately.
