 * Keep, it was written 16 years ago by a user with no connection to the bank, does not contain advertising language and is about a company listed on the country's stock exchange. The sourcing is bad though, since the requirements were more lenient 16 years ago. Geschichte (talk) 07:48, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep. The article does not "read[] like an obvious advertisement": it provides neutral facts about the bank and its history. I agree with Geschichte that the present sourcing is clearly subpar, but there seems to be quite a bit of coverage available in Google News, Google Scholar, Norwegian-language outlets, etc., and in any event notability hasn't been contested.

 * Keep. improved intro paragraph to make it less promotional. I have added a couple of new citations. Seems like a descent size bank from Norway.Chelokabob (talk) 23:32, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
