Jyske Bank to sell Gibraltar subsidiary, citing Brexit as a factor
Denmark’s Jyske Bank Group announced yesterday that it plans to sell its subsidiary bank in Gibraltar, citing Brexit and its wider corporate strategy as key factors in its decision.
The bank has already engaged in talks with a number of “serious buyers” interested in taking over Jyske bank (Gibraltar), which employs 100 staff, most of whom are Gibraltarians.
Jens Lauritzen, the bank’s Director of Private Banking International, said the bank’s priority was to find a buyer that would take on both Jyske’s clients and its staff.

“We are working to ensure we secure as many jobs as possible.”
