Grieg Seafood ASA: Norwegian resource tax reduced to 25 percent
With reference to the stock exchange message on 28 September 2022, as well as the stock exchange message on 28 March 2023.
The Norwegian Government has secured a majority in the Norwegian Parliament to adopt a resource tax on the salmon farming industry of 25% on values created in the ocean phase of the salmon production cycle. This is significantly better than the original proposal of 40%.
