Danske Bans Economists From Tweeting as Law Causes Confusion

Danske Bank A/S has told its economists to stay off Twitter and other social media platforms until Denmark’s largest lender fully understands the legal consequences of new legislation.

A new Danish law prohibits providers of consumer loans from advertising on the same platforms as betting companies. It’s unclear if tweets from Danske’s staff can be labeled as advertisement and if the lender’s consumer loans fall under the category targeted by the law.
