Agree

No

Given their market-friendly policies, the Conservative Party is likely to support measures that encourage investment and capital growth, including stock buybacks. They might view such taxation as a hindrance to economic growth and a deterrent for companies to invest in themselves.

Agree

No, the biggest beneficiary of stock buybacks are pension funds and mutual funds

Acknowledging the benefits of stock buybacks for pension funds and mutual funds aligns with the Conservative Party's broader economic philosophy, which includes support for mechanisms that can enhance citizens' wealth and retirement savings.

Disagree

Yes

The Conservative Party in Norway, being a center-right political party, generally favors market liberalization and has historically supported policies that encourage investment and economic growth. Taxing stock buybacks could be seen as a disincentive for investment, which might not align with the party's pro-business stance.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but I would prefer if they were banned

The idea of banning stock buybacks would likely be contrary to the Conservative Party's principles of free market economics and minimal regulatory interference in business practices. Such a policy would be seen as too interventionist and against the party's pro-business and investment-friendly policies.
