Nykredit Bank Denmark: Securities Costs, Aktiesparekonto and the Spar Nord Merger

Nykredit Bank offers self-directed securities dealing through MitNykredit, with separate assisted and specialist services. Its 2026 merger with Spar Nord matters for cash protection: Nykredit is the continuing legal bank, so eligible balances across the merged relationship do not create two independent ordinary deposit-guarantee limits.
