The Brønnøysund Register Centre develops and operates many of the nation's most important registers and electronic solutions. Administering Altinn, coordinating data in the public sector and providing advisory services are central tasks that make things easier for business and industry.

The Brønnøysund Register Centre is a government body under the Norwegian Ministry of Trade and Industry, and consists of several different national computerised registers. These registers contain information and key data about such matters as:

• Liabilities and titles in mortgaged movable property
• Almost 400 000 business enterprises
• More than 2 300 000 annual accounts and auditor's reports of limited companies
• Bankruptcies and compulsory liquidations
• Approximately 230 000 marriage settlements

The Brønnøysund Register Centre contributes greatly towards creating improved and more orderly conditions in business, trade and industry. We are convinced that openness and traceability serve to counter white-collar crime. Reliable, impartial information yields financial security.
