Inflation hit 6.7% in April - the highest level since 1984 due to rising energy prices
Denmark's April 2022 inflation rate rose to its highest level since 1984 as electricity and heating prices jumped.

March inflation in 2022 accelerated to 5.4%, the highest level since 1985.
After a decade in which price increases were less than 2% a year, consumers have to deal with significant growth and will have to get used to the worst. Inflation in the country has yet to peak, buoyed by strong demand for the country's goods and services abroad and continued wage growth, said Bjorn Tangaa Sillemann, senior analyst at Danske Bank A/S.
January consumer price rise of 4.3%
Consumer prices in January 2022 in Denmark increased by 4.3% compared to a year earlier. Commodity prices jumped 6.6%, the biggest year-on-year increase in any month since 1985.

2020: Companies are compensated for up to 90% of salaries and rent
In early April 2020, it became known that the Danish government will compensate rent to affected companies, as well as from 75 to 90% of workers' wages over the next three months, provided that companies do not massively lay off people.
All political parties merged with trade unions and employer associations. The $2 trillion package expanded the standard unemployment insurance system and created a cash pool that should help affected companies.
Salary retention and rental assistance are collectively estimated at 42.6 billion Danish kronor (about $6.27 billion) minus the unemployment insurance system. The goal of such an approach is to prevent painful mass unemployment, since in such conditions enterprises will be able to keep their workers, and not try to lay them off, in order to then hire again after the crisis. As soon as the situation normalizes, companies will be able to quickly resume their activities, restoring economic growth.
One of the reasons the Danes were able to quickly raise huge sums for social support is the already developed social safety net. In 2018, taxes collected by the Danish government accounted for 49% of the country's annual output. For comparison, in the Netherlands this figure was 39%, in the UK - 34%, and in the USA only 24%. People accept an extremely high tax burden in exchange for benefits such as national health care, free public education, protection for people who lose their jobs.
 | It soon became clear that we were in an exceptional situation when it was necessary to propose exceptional initiatives very quickly, "said Carl-Johan Dalgaard, an economist at the University of Copenhagen and chairman of the Danish Economic Council, which advises politicians. - If you support companies and thereby reduce the risk of bankruptcies and layoffs, this will accelerate the return to normal life.[1] |  |
