About Norges Bank Currencies
The Norwegian central bank's open FX feed, in your warehouse.
Norges Bank is the central bank of Norway. Each business day around 16:00 CET it publishes middle rates between the Norwegian krone and roughly forty other currencies, calculated as the mid-point of buying and selling rates in the interbank market. Daily, monthly and annual quotations sit in the same data warehouse, free to access, with no API key required.
The feed lives behind an SDMX REST API at data.norges-bank.no/api/data/EXR. A query is positional: frequency, base currency, quote currency, tenor. EXR/B.USD.NOK.SP returns the daily spot rate for USD against NOK. The same path supports CSV, Excel, JSON and full SDMX-ML, with startPeriod and endPeriod for backfills running back decades. The bank flags the rates as indicative, not binding, but Norwegian and EU finance teams use them as the official reference for statutory NOK reporting and for closing-day revaluation.
Pulling the feed into a warehouse is not about replacing your treasury system. It is about putting the rate the auditor expects next to the booking that uses it: the NOK invoice from a Norwegian customer at the rate of the booking date, the open AR balance revalued at month-end close, the margin on a Norwegian deal compared to the day the quote was sent. Once it is a table, every report that touches NOK uses the same number.
