About Finansinspektionen

The Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority, Finansinspektionen, is a public authority. Our role is to promote stability and efficiency in the financial system as well as to ensure an effective consumer protection. We authorise, supervise and monitor all companies operating in Swedish financial markets. Finansinspektionen is accountable to the Ministry of Finance.

Under our supervision

We have a public record of financial institutions, individuals and other bodies that fall under our regulatory jurisdiction. Our register allows for searches within Sweden as well as Swedish financial institutions with activities outside Sweden.  Read more
