Dodgy Deals

Danske Bank is linked to a number of companies and projects that BankTrack considers controversial (so called Dodgy Deals), e.g. as a current or past financier or through an expression of interest. The profiles below provide more details on the nature of Danske Bank's link to these deals.

Campaigns

Banks and Climate

The 2022 Banking on Climate Chaos report showed that Danske Bank provided US$ 6.68 billion in financing to the fossil fuel industry between 2016 and 2021. Find further details on Danske Bank fossil fuel portfolio and how it compares to other large banks globally on Fossil Banks No Thanks and in the Banking on Climate Chaos report.

Reclaim Finance tracks the coal, oil and gas policies of financial institutions, including banks, in the Coal Policy Tracker and Oil and Gas Policy Tool. Find further details on their assessment of Danske Bank's fossil fuel policy below.


Tracking the Net Zero Banking Alliance

Danske Bank is a member of the Net Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA) and has therefore committed to reduce its financed emissions to net zero by 2050; within 18 months of joining the alliance set interim targets for 2030 (or sooner) for high emission priority sectors, and within 36 months set further sector targets; set new intermediary targets every 5 years from 2030 onwards; annually publish data on emissions and progress against a transition strategy including climate-related sectoral policies; and take a robust approach to the role of offsets in transition plans. BankTrack track's implementation of these commitments in the NZBA compliance tracker.

Banks and Putin's war in Ukraine

BankTrack is keeping track of the public response of the Danske Bank to Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine. Danske Bank has publicly condemned the war. Danske Bank is considered by Leave-Russia.org to be "continue operations" its operations in Russia. We consider its exposure to Russia as limited. Danske Bank supports the Russian fossil fuel industry through investments. For further details, see the table linked below.

Förbjud bankernas stöd till fossilbolagen

Bankernas finansiella verksamhet är en blind fläck i det svenska klimatarbetet. Trots Parisavtalet fortsätter svenska banker att låna ut hundratals miljarder kronor till bolag inom kol, olja och gas. Nu måste regeringen täppa till luckan i klimathandlingsplanen så att inte bankerna kan låna ut pengar till fossilbolag som inte vill eller kan ställa om, skriver Naturskyddsföreningen och Sveriges Konsumenter.

Accountability
Grievances

Danske Bank has not established any grievance mechanims available to communities whose rights might be impinged by the bank's activities. Customers can, however, make a complaint here. For other stakeholders it is possible to lodge a complaint with the OECD National Contact Point (see OECD Watch Guidance).

This page evaluates Danske Bank's responses to instances of alleged human rights violations linked to its finance, raised by civil society organisations. It is not intended to be exhaustive, but covers selected impacts raised by BankTrack and other civil society partners since 2016. For the full scoring methodology, see here. For more information about BankTrack's evaluation of bank responses to human rights impacts, see the 2021 report "Actions speak louder: assessing bank responses to human rights violations".
