Corporate responsibility
Nykredit is the largest lender in Denmark, the largest lender to homeowners and one of the largest lenders to small and medium-sized businesses, the agricultural sector and the housing sector. We are owned by an association of customers. As such, we have a special responsibility for creating value to our customers and to society.
Samfundsansvar
Corporate responsibility lies at the core of Nykredit's strategy: “We want to be the customer-owned responsible financial provider for people and businesses all over Denmark.”
Nykredit is committed and uniquely positioned to help solve the common challenges faced by society and to make a difference.
We will be active in all of Denmark and support growth – in urban and rural districts alike. At all times. And we will do our best to create a greener Denmark for our children and for future generations.
Read about our 2030 Climate Transition Plan
Nykredit's Sustainability Statement can be found in the Nykredit Group’s Annual Report 2024 and has been prepared in accordance with the new European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), as required under the new EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).

The Nykredit Group's statutory sustainability reporting is covered on pages 30-128 of the Group’s Annual Report 2024. Here you can read more about the three main themes that address our impacts, risks and opportunities related to E, S and G.
