“As the pandemic impacted our customers, business clients and society, it also had an impact on us. Despite these corona-related headwinds and the continuing negative interest rate environment, our results were resilient and we continued to see more customers choose ING.”
“Helping colleagues, customers and communities safely through the Covid-19 pandemic remains a top priority, and I’m proud of how ING has stepped up to deal with this challenge,” said Steven van Rijswijk, CEO of ING Group.
“We performed well in the third quarter. Even with the ongoing negative interest rate environment, our net interest income has remained resilient,” said Ralph Hamers, CEO of ING Group.
“We achieved good results in the second quarter, with solid profitability and healthy growth in both lending and deposits. We added more than 300,000 primary customers in 2Q2019, which demonstrates that our customer experience continues to be differentiating and drive growth,” said Ralph Hamers, CEO of ING Group.

ING will analyse the findings from an inspection conducted from October 2018 until January 2019 and will discuss them further with the Banca d’Italia. In line with the enhancement programme announced last year, it is taking the necessary steps to improve processes and management of compliance risks as required by the Banca d’Italia.
