Equinor supports fair and open securities markets wherever we operate. We are committed to maintaining a high standard of integrity and transparency in our operations, also concerning insider information.
Equinor's primary listing is on the Oslo Stock Exchange (Oslo Børs) and our corporate governance practices consequently follow the requirements of Norwegian law (and the Oslo Stock Exchange).
Equinor is also registered as a foreign private issuer with the US Securities and Exchange Commission with American Depositary Shares representing its Ordinary Shares listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Equinor is therefore also subject to the NYSE's listing rules (“NYSE rules”), but as a foreign private issuer, exempt from most of the NYSE corporate governance standards that domestic US companies must follow.
Equinor has established an insider listing system to ensure that inside information is not misused and that all relevant parties are aware of their obligations in relation to inside information.
Equinor clearly outlines the responsibilities of individuals who are classified as primary insiders, including members of the Board of Directors, the Corporate Executive Committee, and other key personnel. These individuals are required to identify their closely associated persons and ensure that this information is accurately reported. This proactive identification helps maintain an up-to-date primary insider list, which is essential for compliance with legal obligations. Please see published list of primary insiders for Equinor on the Oslo Stock Exchange’s webpage.
Overall, Equinor's insider management policy is designed to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations while promoting a culture of ethical conduct and transparency in all dealings involving insider information.
