Danske Bank has announced a new partnership with sustainability software provider Position Green to enhance its ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) support for larger business customers. The collaboration aims to help companies work more strategically with ESG despite the EU’s move to simplify sustainability reporting requirements.
While the EU's latest Omnibus package reduces the number of companies required to report ESG data, Danske Bank believes that a proactive ESG strategy remains essential. Christina Krath, Head of Sustainability for Business Customers at Danske Bank, emphasizes that managing ESG risks and opportunities can boost both short- and long-term competitiveness—especially for companies operating within supply chains of larger firms that maintain strict ESG standards.
Tailored tools and strategic insight
As part of the partnership, Danske Bank’s customers will gain access to Position Green’s all-in-one ESG platform. The software helps businesses simplify ESG data management and turn it into actionable insights. “Our software provides companies with the insights they need to take action where it matters most,” says Julia Staunig, Chief Growth Officer at Position Green. “That’s how ESG becomes a driver of both resilience and competitive advantage.”
Support beyond software
In addition to discounted access to Position Green’s solutions, Danske Bank customers will receive ESG e-learning resources and strategic financial guidance. The bank’s advisers are prepared to support financing for sustainability initiatives, including energy efficiency upgrades and supply chain improvements.
“Insights gained from ESG analysis can drive meaningful operational changes,” adds Krath. “As a bank, we’re ready to be a financial sparring partner to help companies implement those changes effectively.”
With this partnership, Danske Bank strengthens its role in helping businesses integrate ESG into core decision-making, aligning sustainability with long-term value creation.
