Nordea Bank Fined DKK155 Million in Danish Anti-money Laundering Case

09:06 AM EST, 11/09/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Nordea Bank (NDA-DK.CO, NDA-FI.HE, NDA-SE.ST) was fined 155 million Danish kroner in a case over whether its anti-money laundering processes and controls were adequate between 2012 and 2015. The Copenhagen City Court acquitted the Nordic financial services group on five out of seven counts and imposed the penalty for the remaining two. Nordea said Monday the fine is "significantly lower" than the Danish Prosecution Service's 6.6 billion-krone claim, adding that it is "adequately provisioned." Nordea will assess the ruling in its entirety before deciding whether to appeal.
