About this statute

This provision states who is covered by the insurance mediation law, defines key terms, and says companies need authorization from Finanstilsynet to carry out insurance and reinsurance mediation. The company must have liability insurance or equivalent security, take measures to protect customers against intermediary insolvency, and the permit application must include the information needed by the financial supervisor. Applications for permission or registration must be submitted through Finanstilsynet’s self-service solution, with a paperless electronic fallback in exceptional cases. Insurance intermediaries must notify the Financial Supervisory Authority about certain changes and yearly turnover/policy data, meet fitness, conduct, remuneration, confidentiality, and whistleblowing rules, and follow restrictions on where covered insurance may be placed. Insurance intermediaries must notify Finanstilsynet before starting cross-border activity or changing the reported information, and Finanstilsynet handles forwarding and supervision steps.
