In 2008, Danske Bank decided to suspend its bonus programme for the Executive Board. Consequently, the contractual remuneration for 2009 was increased.

Under the Danish Act on State-Funded Capital Injections into Credit Institutions, only 50% of management's salaries is tax deductible until the capital raised has been repaid. In 2009 this deduction amounted to DKr 14m.
