Danske Bank A/S wants to bring a lot more women into its upper echelons as part of a broad plan to ramp up its credentials on environmental, social and governance issues.

Berit Behring, the head of wealth management at the Copenhagen-based bank and the only woman in its C-suite, says Danske wants at least 35% of its managers to be women. That compares with about 23% today.
