TCBinformasjonen

TCBinformasjonen is a public information service that aggregates and presents official data, analyses, and explanatory material related to monetary policy, financial stability, and the operation of the financial system. It is designed to improve transparency and public understanding by providing a centralized, searchable resource for information produced by the central bank, national statistics agencies, and related authorities.

Content and features: The platform hosts time-series data and indicators such as inflation, unemployment, policy rates, exchange rates, and credit conditions, along with financial stability reports, policy announcements, speeches, and minutes. It offers interactive charts, downloadable datasets, a glossary, and explainer articles that translate technical material into accessible language.

Access, licensing, and reuse: The service is freely available online and aims to be multilingual and accessible to users with varying backgrounds. Data are attributed to their sources, and reuse is allowed under open licenses for research, journalism, education, and public policy analysis.

Governance and quality: TCBinformasjonen is typically operated by a government entity or a collaboration of authorities such as the central bank and the national statistics office. It emphasizes data integrity, methodology notes, update schedules, and a clear version history, with quality controls to minimize errors.

Impact and use: The portal is used by researchers, journalists, students, educators, and policymakers to monitor economic conditions, study monetary policy effects, and support transparent public discourse on economic issues.
