Note: Interest rates at year-end or as from the date stated.

1  As from April 1992 until end-April 1997 interest-earning deposits were subject to maximum limits. Until end-March 1992 the banks also had access to drawings on current account. The rate of interest for these drawings was 0.5 to 1 per cent higher.
2  Danmarks Nationalbank's interest rate for collateralised lending as well as for sale and repurchase of the Nationalbank's certificates of deposit. On purchasing certificates of deposit before expiry the Nationalbank's buy-back price is normally based on a slightly higher interest rate. The interest rates stated exclude this premium. Until 21 June 1999 the Nationalbank's lending rate was called the repo rate.
