Danske Bank has decided to provide our shareholders with information about the Group on our website danskebank.com rather than at shareholder meetings. This makes it easier for shareholders to find specific information and enables us to publish system information and information on other matters as the need arises. Our website has received several awards for being one of the best investor relations websites in Europe.

If you have specific questions to the Danske Bank Group or about the Group and you can’t find the answer on our website, please contact us at shareholder@danskebank.com.

We stop transmitting after the chairman’s report. The general meeting is a forum for shareholders and is thus private in nature. The meeting is open for members of the press, but because we want the debate to be as broad and exhaustive as possible, this consideration takes priority over transmission to the general public, by video recording or otherwise. By doing so, we are also in line with the stipulations of the new Danish Companies Act. No system currently exists that allows us to transmit a general meeting to a closed forum via the internet while still observing the security requirements we have. Moreover, there are a number of legal requirements to be observed when transmitting a general meeting, even if the transmission is to a closed forum via the internet only and with access exclusively for shareholders. If we use digital equipment that conveys images of recognisable persons, we may be considered to be disclosing personal data. But sending images is precisely the point of such a transmission. The result is that we will have to obtain express consent from each person of whom we show images. The preparations required for transmission of an entire meeting are thus extensive, even if it is a partially electronic meeting transmitted to a closed forum of shareholders.
