Together we are more

Nykredit is different. Yes, we are a bank. And a mortgage provider too. But in one important area we are different: We are owned by an association of customers. Being customer-owned, we are in a unique position to give something back to our customers when we are doing well. Together we can simply do more for our customers and for society.

Our history

Pledge to our staff

We will prioritise development and opportunities for people who will and can make a difference. We want to be known for our trusting culture guided by customer centricity, team spirit and empowerment.
