Nordea Bank Norge ASA

Mission statement: Making it possible

Vision:

To be a Great European bank, acknowledged for its people, creating superior value for customers and shareholders.

History:

Nordea is admittedly one of Nordic more recent bank names but the bank traces its roots as far back as to 1820. To date 250 banks have been incorporated and many exciting events have taken place. Did you know for instance that HC Andersen was one of Nordea’s first customers?

He didn’t of course know this himself, since the name of the bank at that time was Sparekassen for Kjøbenhavn og Omegn. It opened in 1820 and is therefore the oldest member of the Nordea family. At that time saving money in a bank was quite a new phenomenon. The few banks that existed earlier in the Nordic countries dealt mostly with issue of banknotes and credits, and were not intended for ordinary people. However, savings campaigns were at the time in progress all over Europe, inspired by the Age of Enlightenment’s ideas concerning combating poverty through diligence and thrift, and savings banks were opened all over the place.

HC Andersen indeed responded to the savings requirements of the day. He was born poor, but when he died in 1875 he had, counted in today’s money, several million in the bank.
