ING

ING Group is a Dutch multinational banking and financial services corporation with over $1 trillion in assets. Established in 1991 through the merger of Nationale-Nederlanden and NMB Postbank Groep, ING operates in 40 countries and employs more than 53,000 people. The company integrates banking and insurance services, a model that has been central to its strategy. With roots dating back to 1845, ING has evolved into a global financial powerhouse through both organic growth and strategic acquisitions, including Barings Bank in 1995. The company offers a wide range of financial services, including retail banking, corporate banking, investment banking, and insurance. Following the 2008-2009 financial crisis, ING underwent significant restructuring to enhance its operations. In recent years, ING has focused on becoming a digital leader in banking with its "Think Forward" strategy. This initiative emphasizes mobile accessibility and platform-based services, reflecting the company's commitment to innovation and growth in the digital banking space.
