That means that even when the share price was slightly below the current price of kr.322, an insider wanted to cash in some shares. As a general rule we consider it to be discouraging when insiders are selling below the current price, because it suggests they were happy with a lower valuation. While insider selling is not a positive sign, we can't be sure if it does mean insiders think the shares are fully valued, so it's only a weak sign. It is worth noting that this sale was only 31% of Carsten Egeriis's holding. Happily, we note that in the last year insiders paid kr.615k for 1.99k shares. But insiders sold 40.00k shares worth kr.13m. Over the last year we saw more insider selling of Danske Bank shares, than buying.

We usually like to see fairly high levels of insider ownership. Insiders own 0.04% of Danske Bank shares, worth about kr.105m. This level of insider ownership is good but just short of being particularly stand-out. It certainly does suggest a reasonable degree of alignment. ## So What Does This Data Suggest About Danske Bank Insiders? The stark truth for Danske Bank is that there has been more insider selling than insider buying in the last three months. Despite some insider buying, the longer term picture doesn't make us feel much more positive. It is good to see high insider ownership, but the insider selling leaves us cautious. While it's good to be aware of what's going on with the insider's ownership and transactions, we make sure to also consider what risks are facing a stock before making any investment decision.
