OSLO, June 18 (Reuters) - The Norwegian government will
present updated rules on mortgage lending on June 19, the
Finance ministry said in a statement on Monday.
    The Finance ministry tightened its restrictions on banks'
mortgages in January 2017 in a bid to limit household borrowing
and prevent a potential house price bubble. The rules were due
to expire in June.
