Our team explores two possible paths for the future of conflict in the Middle East and what each could mean for markets and the global economy. Europe may feel the impact first, facing a potential energy shock on top of trade pressures. Dive deeper here👇
Last week, our CEO Steven van Rijswijk and global head of Sustainability Anne-Sophie Castelnau attended the IEA Ministerial Meeting in Paris, representing ING as the only private financial institution present. Together, with energy ministers from IEA countries and business leaders, they discussed how to invest in energy systems that are secure, affordable and sustainable. One clear takeaway: the energy debate is moving fast - from targets to delivery. Decarbonisation is central to Europe’s competitiveness, but the energy transition doesn’t happen overnight. Investors need clear, credible, long term policy and meaningful carbon prices to commit to capital intensive, low carbon technologies. ING's presence at the International Energy Agency (IEA) Ministerial Meeting shows that we play a critical role in making that happen. Turning ambition into investable reality at the scale and pace that Europe needs, ultimately comes down to creating the right conditions for projects to be commercially viable. This requires capital flow, clear policies and effective risk management.

At ING, our approach to AI is pragmatic by design. AI must solve real problems, be built responsibly, reuse scalable solutions, and run on a secure, stable platform. That was the key insight shared by Marco Li Mandri, ING’s head of Advanced Analytics Strategy at ING, during the FRANKFURT DIGITAL FINANCE Conference. His message was clear: technology is not the goal, impact is. And the impact of this approach is already tangible across ING: 🔸Hyper‑personalised customer engagement reaching more than 7 million customers 🔸Instant credit decisions for 65% of consumer loans in the Netherlands 🔸GenAI-powered chatbots resolving up to 80% of customer inquiries in real time. Proof that when AI is grounded in real-world needs, built at scale, and deployed responsibly, it delivers measurable value.
ING’s approach to AI is pragmatic by design. AI must solve real problems, be built responsibly, reuse scalable solutions, and run on a secure, stable platform. Our principle is simple and deliberate: technology is not the goal, impact is.
When AI is grounded in real‑world needs and deployed at scale, it moves beyond innovation theatre and delivers measurable value for customers and the business.

“Autonomous AI” gets used in ways that spark fear more than clarity. As Marnix v. Stiphout, ING’s COO, reminds us: the real issue isn’t AI “running free”, it’s how we define it & design systems people can trust. So what does #AIAutonomy look like in practice? Here’s Marnix’s perspective #AIinFinance
