Finanstilsynet warns against investment offers promoted by Velstand-Paynor
Last published: 12 August 2025
Finanstilsynet has received information that Velstand-Paynor has contacted Norwegian investors and offered investment services. The company also offers services through the website www.velstand-paynor.com.
Finanstilsynet emphasizes that Velstand-Paynor is not authorized to provide investment services in Norway and therefore does not hold the necessary approval under Norwegian law. This means that Finanstilsynet does not supervise the company and has not approved the services it offers. Finanstilsynet therefore advises investors not to enter into agreements with or transfer funds to Velstand-Paynor.
In addition, Finanstilsynet is aware that the company has misused the names and identities of well-known individuals in the marketing of its services.
Finanstilsynet’s company register contains information about all entities authorized to offer investment services in Norway. On Finanstilsynet’s website, there is also a (non-exhaustive) list of market participants operating without authorization.
