Saxo Bank Doubles Down on Sponsorship of Denmark's Motorsport Brothers

Copenhagen, Denmark (ots/PRNewswire) - Saxo Bank, the online
multi-asset trading and investment specialist,
today announces a new sponsorship of Lasse Sorensen, winner of the
2014 French F4 Championship, as well as its continued support of
older brother and GP2 driver, Marco Sorensen.

Lasse, 18, is regarded as the emerging talent in Danish motor racing
and is Manor MP Motorsport's second signing for its Eurocup Formula
Renault 2.0 team.

Saxo Bank has sponsored Marco Sorensen since 2014 and announced on
Wednesday that it would continue to support Marco until at least the
end of 2015. Marco switched to GP2 from Formula Renault 3.5 Series
mid last season and achieved his maiden GP2 victory in October 2014.

Lars Seier Christensen, co-CEO and co-founder, Saxo Bank A/S said:

"We are delighted to be supporting the brothers of future Danish
sporting success. Marco is the model candidate to have our backing.
He is determined and has the discipline and talent to reach his
ambitious goals and can inspire and enrich a whole generation. Lasse
has fantastic potential and has shown the skill and ambition to climb
to the top of motor racing. We are privileged to help both of them
seize every opportunity that arises in the sport.

"At the heart of Saxo Bank is a passionate commitment to empowering
opportunities. We have a long tradition of supporting Danish talent
with international ambitions. Sponsoring sports such as motor racing
and cycling not only gives us marketing exposure but an opportunity
to offer clients something very special. We wish Marco and Lasse all
the best for the 2015 season and are looking forward to following the
brothers with our clients."

Lasse Sorensen said, "To have an organization such as Saxo Bank put
its faith in me is fantastic. At my age, I need a support network
that allows me to achieve my ambitious goals and Saxo Bank is
perfectly placed to do that. I would like to thank the bank for its
support and I look forward to a tremendous journey ahead."

These new sponsorship packages mark a continuation of Saxo Bank's
allegiance with the sporting world. The bank entered a one-year
business partnership with Lotus F1 team in 2014 and it has sponsored
the UCI ProTour cycling team Tinkoff-Saxo and Riis Cycling (now
Tinkoff Sport) since 2008.
