- Insurance and Pension Denmark has reshuffled its organisation to be split into two main areas.

With effect from 3 December 2020, the association will have an area focused on its members, consisting of five departments including IT and digitisation. Its second area of interest management will consist of four policy departments and an analysis department.

“In executing our strategy 2025, we have decided that we will stand on two legs. We will be more efficient in our interest management and we will develop member services and industry solutions with high value for our members,” Insurance and Pension Denmark CEO, Kent Damsgaard, said.
