During Easter, Danske Bank Group successfully completed the planned migration of Sampo Bank, Finland, onto the Group’s IT platform. “The migration increases the competitiveness of Sampo Bank within all business areas,” says Peter Straarup, chief executive of the Danske Bank Group. “Our customers in Finland can now benefit from the advantages provided by a large, international bank.”
It has taken a substantial effort to reach this far. During the past year, 2,500 employees of the Group have been busy preparing the migration. They have carried out 50,000 tests and migrated more than 2 million customer accounts and 800,000 ebanking agreements to Danske Bank’s systems
