Sydbank is one of the largest commercial banks in Denmark. Sydbank was established in 1970 as a result of the merger between four local banks in Southern Jutland. Its activities include retail banking, corporate banking as well as investment and private banking services. The bank's branches are mostly located in Denmark, but it also has three offices in the northern part of Germany.
Sydbank's most important sustainability commitments can be found at the website sections listed below.
Sydbank 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 Sydbank's link to these deals.
Sydbank operates a Whistleblowerportal through which people can report conditions that have resulted in significant personal, property or environmental damage.
This page evaluates Sydbank'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".
