Our history
What is now SG Finans was established in 2005 after a demerger of ELCON Finans, half of which was bought by the Societe Generale Group and the other half by the Santander Group. However our origins go right back to 1963, when ELCON first saw the light of day. Over the decades, the company grew under several owners, including Gjensidige Forsikring and Sparebanken NOR, becoming Norway's leading financing company, a position the company still holds.

Our ambitions
As market leader in Norway and with an ever stronger position in Sweden and Denmark, it is SG Finans' ambition to be one of the Nordic area's leaders within our business areas
