Howard Wilkinson

Howard Wilkinson is a British whistleblower whose actions helped to illuminate the 2018 Danske Bank money laundering scandal. Wilkinson's disclosure was part of reporting that was published in 2018 that stated from 2007 to 2014, a Danske Bank branch located in Estonia had been involved in the laundering of $235 billion U.S. dollars.

While working at an Estonian Danske Bank branch, Wilkinson brought attention to a suspected money laundering operation by writing four reports. The bank did not respond to these allegations until 2018, when Wilkinson's name was released to an Estonian newspaper without his consent, which according to Wilkinson, violated his whistleblower protection rights. In December of 2018, Wilkinson testified in front of the Danish Parliament regarding his involvement as a whistleblower. In May 2019 Wilkinson's case was featured on the CBS 60 Minutes television program.
