History

The history of the Danish Bank is the story of three of Denmark's first large banks, which together came to be called The Danish Bank, since Danish Bank. Danish Bank has over the years been a key business in the Group. 1800: Three large private banks is born In 1846 opened Denmark's first private bank, Funen Discontokasse, since - through a series of mergers - were nationwide under the name Provincial Bank. On 5 October 1871 the Danish Farmers Bank founded by saddler Gottlieb Hartvig Abrahamsson Gedalia. Isaac Gluckstadt became director in 1872 and was head of the bank for 38 years until his son Emil followed in office in 1910. In 1873, Denmark got another big bank, Handelsbanken. 1920-1950: From the Agricultural Bank to Danish the bank In 1910 the Danish Farmers' Bank Scandinavia's largest bank. It gave societal tremors since the bank during the post-war crisis in 1922 came in such difficulties that it had to be reconstructed with the help of the state. After reconstruction regained the bank quickly his strength. The Danish Farmers Bank remained the largest bank, and the period from 1920 to 1950 was marked by growth and expansion of the branch network. In 1976 the bank consequence of growth and its real customer stock and changed its name to the Danish National Bank. 1960-1990: Liberalization and mergers period was characterized by a structural rationalization in the banking sector. Crucial to the Danish Bank's development was also the incipient liberalization of the legal framework for banking and thus the prelude to free competition. Liberalisation gave freer rein for marketing and product development and continued technological innovations. But it also gave foreign competition and banking operations at market conditions. The idea of mergers was thus clear. 1990: Merger of three traditional big banks as an indirect result of developments merged the Danish Bank, Handelsbanken and Provincial Bank April 6, 1990 for a bank that came to bear the name of the Danish Bank. The time after the merger was used for economic and organizational consolidation. In 2000 the name was changed to Danish Bank. 2007 - The fusion of Danish Bank and BG Bank in 2007 was the year when BG Bank, which became part of the Danish Bank Group in 2001, merged with the Danish Bank into one bank. The two banks had since the merger in 2001 converged. With the convergence has Danish Bank achieved a stronger position in the Danish market with multiple branches and greater accessibility for customers.
