One response to “Why Norges Bank leads the world in transparency”

Well yes, they are very transparent. Good.

But I am afraid they do not always benefit from the advice their transparency permits.

Please have a look at those very modest return reductions in thier climate scenario work. Climate scientists do not know whether to laugh or cry.

So far Norges have been deeply resistent to any engagement (even pro bono!) on this issue. Sad.
