    Notification to Nasdaq OMX Copenhagen 12/2021 INTERIM REPORT FIRST HALF OF 2021 CVR no. 80050410 REPORT FOR FIRST HALF OF 2021 IN HEADLINES Satisfactory first half of 2021 The BANK of Greenland’s profit before tax amounts to DKK 74.8 million for the first half of 2021, compared to DKK 55.7 million for the first half of 2020. The profit before value adjustments and write-downs is DKK 72.0 million, compared to DKK 72.9 million for the previous year. After sound growth in lending in both 2019 and 2020, lending fell in the first half of 2021. Lending has decreased by DKK 182 million since the end of 2020, amounting to DKK 3,824 million at the end of the first half-year. As stated in the Q1 report, the decline in lending was expected in view of the completion of several major construction financing projects, to some extent replaced by mortgage finance guarantees. Guarantees increased by DKK 293 million from DKK 1,622 million at the end of 2020 to DKK 1,915 million at the end of Q2 2021. Net interest and fee income increased by DKK 7.0 million to DKK 168.1 million in the first half of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. The increase is due partly to higher guarantee commission income and income from the investment and pension area. Total expenses including depreciation amounted to DKK 98.3 million at the end of the first half of 2021, compared to DKK 90.4 million for the same period of 2020.

  • Oceans North Letter to Fiskerikommissionen in Greenland
    Oceans North, Greenland Office 3900 Nuuk PO Box 1433 +299 522406 www.oceansnorth.org Oceans North Letter to Fiskerikommissionen in Greenland August 2020 Oceans North, a non-governmental organization, is focused on marine conservation in the Arctic and northern oceans and supporting the well-being of communities that rely on the marine environment. Oceans North has been engaged in Canadian fisheries management advisory committees in the Eastern Arctic and Atlantic Canada, as well as being an observer to the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization. We know that healthy coastal communities are predicated on a healthy marine environment for food security and economic activity. In April 2017, Oceans North hosted a meeting in Ilulissat on the Greenland halibut fishery. The three-day conference resulted in a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed by all the major companies and organizations of the coastal fishery for Greenland halibut including KNAPK, SQAPK, Department of Fisheries and Hunting, GFLK, Greenland Institute of Natural Resources, Qaasuitsup Municipality, Royal Greenland, and Greenland Halibut. We have included a copy of this agreement as appendix to this letter. The purpose of the agreement was to create a starting point for future discussions on the establishment of a responsible fishery for Greenland halibut, locally, regionally, and nationally. Sustainability and quality in the fishery must be the focus of management efforts. Dialogue and engagement between fishermen, biologists, management and the industry should be increased. Oceans North has also been instrumental in the signing of an international agreement to prevent unregulated high seas fisheries in the Central Arctic Ocean (CAO) which was signed in Ilulissat in October 2018.

  • Sheep Farming As “An Arduous Livelihood”
    University of Alberta Cultivating Place, Livelihood, and the Future: An Ethnography of Dwelling and Climate in Western Greenland by Naotaka Hayashi A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology ©Naotaka Hayashi Spring 2013 Edmonton, Alberta Permission is hereby granted to the University of Alberta Libraries to reproduce single copies of this thesis and to lend or sell such copies for private, scholarly or scientific research purposes only.

The author reserves all other publication and other rights in association with the copyright in the thesis and, except as herein before provided, neither the thesis nor any substantial portion thereof may be printed or otherwise reproduced in any material form whatsoever without the author's prior written permission. Abstract In order to investigate how Inuit Greenlanders in western Greenland are experiencing, responding to, and thinking about recent allegedly human-induced climate change, this dissertation ethnographically examines the lives of Greenlanders as well as Norse and Danes in the course of past historical natural climate cycles. My emphasis is on human endeavours to cultivate a future in the face of difficulties caused by climatic and environmental transformation. I recognize locals’ initiatives to carve out a future in the promotion of sheep farming and tree-planting in southern Greenland and in adaptation processes of northern Greenlandic hunters to the ever-shifting environment.

CSR GREENLAND 11 Dear reader, It is my pleasure to present the third Communication on Engagement (CoE) from CSR Green- land to the UN Global Compact covering the period of October 2017 to December 2019. CSR Greenland has included a brief background describing the organisation and our main activities and results. A more detailed account of specific activities can be found in our annual reports, which can be downloaded from our website www.csr.gl.

In particular, our close collaboration with Greenland Business Associ- ation ensures a significant reach of our activities. From the outset, we have embedded the UN Global Compact principles in our work. They have been part of our communication and training of member companies and other stake- holders, and the foundation for our activities. Since 2012, we have been the Greenlandic contact point for the UNGC Nordic Network, a responsibility that we share with Greenland Business Association. We will continue to sup- port the UN Global Compact principles going forward, and engage with and support the UNGC in our work.

Print: Kailow Graphic A/S ISBN 978-87-7144-099-7 200.11.2016 BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES IN GREENLAND – PROJECT OVERVIEW 2016 / 2017 3 FOREWORD Today, the Arctic region is experiencing an unprecedented level of interdependence with a number of growing interrelated challenges to the local, regional and global order. At the local level the lives of ingenious people, who have inhabited the Arctic of thousands of years are experiencing increasing opportunities for unlocking the vast economic po- tential through natural resources, shipping and tourism but at the same time face major challenges to their traditional livelihoods and cultures. At the regional level, the Arctic states and other international actors are increasingly engaging in the region making it both a venue for cooperation and competition over economic and security interests. The dynamics at both of these levels are unfolding at the backdrop of major global devel- opments, where climate change is having a particularly strong impact on the vulnerable region. While the global temperature increase is allowing the Arctic new economic op- portunities through new Sea ways, tourism and access to resources, climate changes are both impacting the melting of permafrost and ice caps as well as being increased through feedback loops in the Arctic.
