I don't know much about the business of this bank but this building is fantastic.During my stay in Copenhagen I was staying in a hotel that was nearby and I kept passing by here and every time admiring this beautiful building.
I never been there but I've done some business there with a very nice man his name is Mr Hallgren. He will go out of his away to help you. Very nice bank. Will do business there again.
They say racism and misuse of other nationalities in Denmark is low. Well, if you want to experience the opposite, try to contact Nykredit and see how they treat you just because you were not so lucky to born in the country. Living, working and contributing to the country for over 10 years yet they make you feel you are a potential criminal who are here to stole their money. If you are a foreigner, do yourself a favor and look for another bank.
Great place to walk around
The triangular site between Hambroesgade, Puggårdsgade and Kalvebod Brygge accommodates the extension of the Nykredit headquarters on the waterfront (known as the Glass Cube). The new extension is called the Crystal, has a floor area of about 7,000 m2 and provides room for about 300 employees. Unlike the row of straight-angled facades along the Kalvebod Brygge waterfront, the Crystal has sculptural influences and is elevated above ground level. The new building owes its name to its glass facade and its crystalline shape, laid out in the form of a ""Z"" and rising asymmetrically above the ground, 31 metres above at the lowest point and 34 metres above at the highest. At each corner of the structure there is an atrium to ensure an optimal intake of light into the building.
