Kredittilsynet (The Financial Supervisory Authority of Norway) warns against investment offers marketed by Hawkins & Doyle



Kredittilsynet has been informed that Hawkins & Doyle (address: 18th floor JT Building, 2-2-1 Toranomon, Minato-ku. 105-0001 Tokyo, Japan) has contacted Norwegian investors and offered to purchase shares if the investor agrees to pay a fee in advance. The company also offers services from the website www.hawkinsdoyle.com.

Kredittilsynet informs that Hawkins & Doyle has not received any approval to perform investment services in Norway, involving that the company does not have necessary authorisation in accordance with Norwegian law. This also involves that Kredittilsynet does not supervise the company and has not approved the services offered by the company.

Kredittilsynet therefore recommends that investors do not enter into agreements or transfer values to Hawkins & Doyle.

Kredittilsynet’s registry contains information on all companies which are authorized to offer investment services in Norway. A list (not complete), of parties in the market which operate without approval, can also be found on Kredittilsynet’s website.
