Norwegian Krone: Rate hike risks support currency – BBH

Brown Brothers Harriman notes that the Norwegian Krone (NOK) is softer against most peers following a modest pullback in Oil prices, but September CPI data keep further Norges Bank rate hikes in play, offering support to NOK. Sticky underlying inflation above the central bank’s forecasts means the option to raise rates further remains open, with markets pricing roughly 50% odds of another hike by year-end.
