Økokrim reviewed share transactions

Økokrim assessed Finnes' securities transactions during the period when Solberg was prime minister, from 2013 to 2021. In particular, Økokrim checked whether there was evidence that confidential information may have reached Finnes from Solberg or other sources and whether there is evidence that he used such information in his investments.
