Infosys and Danske Bank have agreed on a strategic partnership and the sale of Indian subsidiary Danske IT, comprising approx. 1,400 employees, to Infosys. The goal is to support Danske Banks’ digital and technology transformation. The transaction is subject to customary authority approval, which is expected in H2 2023.
