The following quote came from Reddit...

"Some of you probably already know about this, but the new faction 'bane' mods increase your base damage like Serration and Hornet Strike. They don't add additional 'elemental' damage as some believe.

Additionally, the base damage increase mods (Serration, Hornet Strike, Point Blank, etc.) stack multiplicatively with these new 'bane' mods. That means if you had a maxed Hornet Strike (+220%) and maxed 'bane' mod (+30%), you would get +316% damage (1.3 * 3.2 - 1) against that faction."

Technically the quote is slightly wrong however,  since bane mods increase the base damage of the weapon and elemental damage is calculated after the base damage, elemental damage indeed is slightly increased by bane mod as well.
