Birgitte Bonnesen

Register entry

Birgitte Bonnesen is recorded in this register under the heading “Court record”, in connection with the role of Former chief executive, Swedbank AB. The entry is filed to Stockholm (Sweden), which is the location associated with the role in the published material rather than a statement of present residence or employment.

A Swedish appeals court overturned an earlier acquittal on 10 September 2024, convicting on one count relating to statements to investors about anti-money-laundering work at the Estonian branch and acquitting on six others. Her lawyer stated an intention to appeal. The register reproduces the substance of the linked source and does not extend it. Where a matter has been appealed, reopened, or closed without findings, that position is stated as the source states it, and the summary line for this entry reads: “Convicted on appeal of gross swindling, 15 months — further appeal reported.”

The entry rests on a published judicial decision or an established news agency report of one. It records the finding as the court expressed it, and nothing beyond it. Readers assessing counterparty, employment or reputational risk should treat this page as a signpost to the primary material — cited here as Reuters, 10 September 2024 — and should verify current status directly with the issuing court, authority or publisher before acting. Corrections and right-of-reply requests are handled through the register's legal notice.
