Aware of Hermitage allegations over anti-money laundering regulations: Nordea

Nordic banking group Nordea said on Tuesday it was aware of an allegation by Hermitage Capital Management that it had breached anti-money-laundering regulations and said that it reported all suspicious transactions to authorities.

"We are aware of the report, and at Nordea, we work closely with the relevant authorities in the countries in which we operate, including the Nordic Financial Intelligence Units," Nordea said in an emailed statement to Reuters.

"In many cases where we deem it to be suspicious transactions, we report it to the authorities for them to take forward."
