The Financial Supervisory Authority of Norway has published the apportionment of its 2025 supervisory levy, under which supervised entities will collectively cover NOK 616,488,000 of the authority’s costs. Invoicing is being carried out by the Norwegian Tax Administration’s State Collection Agency on Finanstilsynet’s behalf. All entities that were under supervision as of 31 December 2024 are required to pay the levy in 2025, while entities that were wound up or lost their licence during 2024 will not be charged. Entities brought under supervision in 2024 must pay the minimum amount set for their supervisory group, including firms that hold a licence but have no turnover. Separate annual fees apply to certain cross-border activities to cover Finanstilsynet’s costs of maintaining registers and systems, including Norwegian agents of EEA payment institutions and EEA investment firms, non-Norwegian EEA UCITS management companies, managers of alternative investment funds established outside Norway, and auditors and audit firms established outside the EEA. Invoices to 12,834 state-authorised accountants will be issued on 2 May 2025, with invoices to listed issuers (267 entities) and other supervisory groups sent during week 19.
