| In 2015, Norway provided USD 4.3 billion in net ODA (preliminary data), which represented 1.05% of gross national income (GNI) and an 8.7% increase in real terms from 2014, due primarily to increased in-donor refugee costs. Norway is the second largest Development Assistance Committee (DAC) provider in terms of ODA as a percentage of GNI, and the ninth largest by volume. Norway is one of only six DAC members to have met the UN target of 0.7% and it has consistently maintained its level of development assistance, having spent about 1% of GNI on ODA every year since 2009. All of Norway’s ODA was untied in 2014 (excluding administrative costs and in-donor refugee costs), whilst the DAC average was 80.6%. Its ODA was also fully untied in 2012 and 2013. The grant element of total ODA was 100% in 2014. |

Norway is the third most-generous member in terms of its ODA/GNI ratio of the OECD’s Development Assistance Committee (DAC), which groups major donors. A new DAC review of Norway praised the country’s long and on-going commitment to high aid targets and noted that its steady economic growth should mean aid volumes would increase in the future.. |
