Analysis apps that use this source

Ready-made tools built on Brreg roles data. Use them directly in the browser, or wire the same data into your own analysis via the API below.

Company profile

Cross-referenced company profile in a single lookup — Brreg, GLEIF LEI, OpenCorporates and Wikidata, with Nordic name matches from CVR (DK) and YTJ (FI). KYB, journalism and investor analysis.

Finanstilsynet register

Look up which companies hold a licence from Finanstilsynet — search by name or organisation number.

Company accounts register

Look up annual accounts for Norwegian companies by name or organisation number — income statement, balance sheet, equity ratio, debt ratio and operating margin from Brønnøysundregistrene, enriched with company status, industry code, roles and bankruptcy signal. Amounts are shown in the company's own reporting currency. The source provides the most recently filed financial year.

Altinn Entity Register

Look up Norwegian organisations via Altinn Enhetsregisteret — name, address, contact details and organisation type. Open API, no login required.

Client screening

Auditor red-flag screening in a single lookup — company status, solvency, earnings trend and sanctions name matches from Brreg, the Register of Company Accounts and the EU sanctions list, with explainable flags and source links for client acceptance (ISA 220).

Shareholder search

Ownership and control for Norwegian companies — parent and subsidiary entities from GLEIF level 2, ownership and control roles from Enhetsregisteret, and the shareholder list as of 31 Dec from the Skatteetaten Shareholder Register where available.

Beneficial owners

Assess beneficial owners (≥ 25% ownership) in Norwegian entities under the Norwegian Anti-Money Laundering Act section 14 — limb by limb from Enhetsregisteret (the Central Coordinating Register), the register of roles and GLEIF group relationships — and screen every identified party against a consolidated sanctions list. KYB/AML for auditors, banks and lawyers.

/{orgnr}/historyDegraded

Historiske (fratrådte) roller for organisasjonsnummer — degradert: det åpne Brreg-API-et leverer kun gjeldende rollesett

Det åpne /api/enheter/{orgnr}/roller returnerer kun det gjeldende rollesettet: ingen rad er avregistrert, og verken inntredelses- eller fratredelsesdato finnes. Svaret bærer status: "degraded", og count: 0 betyr IKKE at selskapet mangler tidligere roller.
