COPENHAGEN (Reuters) – Danske Bank on Thursday raised its net profit guidance for this year after lower-than-expected loan impairment charges and higher customer activity.
Denmark’s biggest lender now expects a net profit of more than 12 billion Danish crowns ($1.9 billion) in 2021, up from previous guidance of 9 to 11 billion crowns.
