On July 18, 2018, Danske stated it will forgo profits made from suspicious transactions in Estonia, driving the price of Danske ADRs down $1.43, or over 9%, to close at $13.81 that day.
When Reuters reported on September 4, 2018 that Danske handled up to $30 billion of Russian and ex-Soviet money via its Estonian branch in 2013 alone, the price of Danske ADRs fell about 6.5% to close at $13.73.
When the Wall Street Journal reported $150 billion that flowed through its Estonian outpost are being studied, Danske ADRs traded down over 5% to close at $13.65 on September 7, 2018.
Today, the WSJ reported the U.S. Justice Department, Treasury, and SEC are investigating the bank. The price of Danske ADRs fell as much as 3%.
“We’re focused on investors’ losses, Danske’s admitted insufficient controls, the compliance officer’s resignation, and the extent to which the Company may have reported illegally earned profits in several years’ of financial reports,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.
