Stein Holst Annexstad (born 1944) is a Norwegian businessperson and politician for the Conservative Party.

Business

He has worked in Dyno Industrier, Nycomed and Hafslund Nycomed.[1] He is the chairman of the board of Investinor (formerly known as Statens Investeringsselskap), whose task is to invest in fledgling Norwegian companies, through a 49% ownership. This public investment fund has an initial capital of about $300 million.[2] In addition, Annexstad has been a member of the board of SINTEF, Biotec Pharmacon, Algeta, Cermaq, SensoNor, Fokus Bank and the Norwegian School of Management.[1]

In 2005 controversy surrounded Annexstad, as he, Trond Wennberg and Jan Gunnar Hartvig were paid a total of $8 million in fees from the investment fund Norgesinvestor 2, despite the fund having low proceeds in general. Smaller investors had earned far lower proceeds.[3] According to the newspaper Dagens Næringsliv, the three had earned $18.5 million from 1996 to 2004, from an initial capital of $250,000.[4]

Annexstad has a fortune of $7.0 million.[5]

Politics

Annexstad is a member of Asker municipal council, representing the Conservative Party.[6] He was elected in 2007; when he was nominated for the ticket the local newspaper described this as a "surprise".[7]

As of 2007 he was the wealthiest politician in the municipalities Asker and Bærum, ahead of businessman and fellow Conservative representative Leif Frode Onarheim.[8]
