Kjell Gunnar Finstad (born 4 October 1939) is a Norwegian businessman and a convicted fraudster.

Finstad is educated as a geologist and started his career in the petroleum industry. He has also been involved in real estate speculation in Norway.[1] He became known when his investment company Norex went bankrupt with 820 million NOK in debts. The case was major news in Norway for several years.[2][3][4][5][6] The bankruptcy was described as one of the largest in Norwegian history.[7]

In 2010 he was convicted on multiple counts of fraud, including securities and accounting fraud, in connection with the bankruptcy.[8][9] The case also led to an investigation of Ernst & Young over their accounting practices.[10] Finstad formerly owned the Ekeberg restaurant in Oslo.[3] In 2016 Norway's largest newspaper Aftenposten and The New York Times highlighted Finstad's use of offshore corporations in connection with the Panama Papers controversy.[3][2]
