The population of Norway is estimated to be 5.0 million in 2012, with 15.9% of the total aged 65 years and over.

Due to the small scale of domestic production, any increases in market demand are likely to be met by imports. In 2011, imports were US$1,029.4 million, an increase of 9.3% over 2010, with a CAGR of 3.4% for the period between 2007 and 2011. There was a balance of trade deficit of US$711.1 million in 2011.

Norway has a stable, affluent economy but was nevertheless affected by the global economic downturn. Real GDP growth fell 1.4% in 2009, according to figures from the Economist Intelligence Unit, recovered in 2010 and is due to grow at 2-2.6% for the next few years. Growth is being driven by domestic demand. Norway has weathered the global financial storm remarkably well, and growth has already resumed after a comparatively mild recession.

Healthcare expenditure has continued its steady growth in recent years, increasing by 7.0% to reach NOK217.2 billion (US$38.5 billion) in 2008, with private expenditure accounting for around 16% of the total. Espicom estimates healthcare expenditure to be US$44.5 million in 2011.
