    The collapse of Norwegian banking in the early 1990s

    The Norwegian banking crisis of the early 1990s has been named among the “Big Five” banking crises of the advanced economies after World War 2 (Reinhart and Rogoff, 2009). What caused this major crisis? And how was it solved? To help us out answering these questions we have invited Bjørm Skogstad Aamo - the long-time head of the Norwegian financial surveillance authorities and (during the crisis), state secretary and lead advisor to the then Norwegian prime minister, Gro Harlem Brundtand.
