About

Anders Bryde Rasmussen, head of legal at SEB, is described as ‘a bright lawyer and an excellent and ambitious head of his team’. He has a wealth of legal experience tied in with a strong theoretical foundation of banking and capital markets. Bryde Rasmussen has played an integral role in transforming the legal department into ‘an internal legal consultancy unit’, which ensures that the department retains a thorough understanding of the needs of external customers and internal “clients”. ‘Keeping track with a regulatory environment that moves faster than anything we have seen before, while not losing sight of the commercial goals and the needs of our customers’ is the biggest trial for Bryde Rasmussen in his role. But this is what he enjoys the most, ‘that no two days are alike! This also requires great overview and the ability to fast find solutions to problems you did not know existed 10 minutes earlier’. According to nominators, Bryde Rasmussen is ‘the perfect role model, not only for his team but also for other managers’.
