Financial Institutions is a value-enhancing sector expert and ING's enabler for Originate to Distribute, Open Banking, Funding and Reciprocity activities. We do this by differentiating the client experience through specialised sector knowledge.

Our highly-professional client base requires specialised knowledge and sophistication from our side. Interaction with the client is often multidimensional. That is why the rules of the game in serving the financial industry are different and ask for specific attention from our Financial Institutions experts. We are a multiproduct coverage unit, fully aligned with our product, risk management and network colleagues.

The subsectors that we cover globally are: 

  • Commercial Banks
  • Sovereigns and Central Banks
  • Asset Managers
  • Pension Funds
  • Insurance companies
  • Fintechs (regulated)
  • Financial sponsors/Private Equity
  • (Single) Family Offices

What also makes us unique is that we are a truly diverse team in both nationality and gender. We are located in 37 countries, comprised of 45 nationalities and with a nearly 50-50% gender ratio.

We look at traditional metrics on yen positioning but also delve a little deeper into the carry trade with a look at the boom in cross-border yen borrowing.
