BRUSSELS - Russia’s Central Bank sent warnings in 2007 and 2013 to Estonian and Danish financial supervisors over suspect transactions worth billion of dollars at the Estonian branch of Danske Bank but they were largely ignored, a confidential EU document shows.
The EBA investigation followed the disclosure last year of a money-laundering scandal at Danske Bank, Denmark’s largest bank, which has admitted that 200 billion euros of suspicious transactions flowed through its Estonian branch between 2007 and 2015. Earlier this month, the EU’s national banking supervisors, who control the EBA, rejected the watchdog’s proposal on the rule breach and effectively blocked further action against the Estonian and Danish regulators.
“The case of the Danske Bank is not closed for us, regardless of the decision of EBA,” EU justice commissioner Vera Jourova said in a statement, without elaborating on whether Brussels will open a legal procedure on this case.EBA document showed that a few months after Danske Bank had acquired Finland’s Sampo Bank and its Estonian business in February 2007, the Russian Central Bank sent a warning to the Danish and Estonia authorities.
The EBA document said neither the Estonian nor the Danish authorities properly followed up on the Russian warning. The EBA document, citing this second warning from Russia, concluded that the Estonian and Danish supervisors did nothing meaningful to immediately address the situation.
