Regulatory press release

DNB Bank ASA: Updated strategy and cost reductions

DNB Bank
Read the release

Today, DNB has updated the Group's strategy for the years ahead. This means that DNB will be even more customer-centric and prioritise simplification and digitalisation that will benefit the customers. 

At the same time, the bank is preparing for a future with lower interest rates and even tougher competition to win customers. DNB will therefore intensify its focus on cost-effectiveness, so that the bank can continue to offer customers the best services at a good price.

"DNB is well positioned to take new steps in the area of digitalisation and automation. At the same time, DNB's costs have also increased in pace with high inflation and even more regulatory requirements for banks. We acknowledge that we have to spend our resources on fewer, but larger initiatives," says Group Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Kjerstin Braathen.

DNB made changes to its Group management and organisational structure in May this year, and has been working on clarifying its strategy in parallel. The next phase is now starting, and among the measures the bank is implementing is centralisation and downsizing of staff and support functions. The goal is a reduction in the number of employees of around 500 full-time equivalents over the next six months.

"Downsizing is not something we take lightly, and we understand that this will create uncertainty among our employees. We will therefore place emphasis on ensuring that the process is fair and proper and on keeping a good dialogue with those who are affected, as well as the employee representatives," says Braathen.
