  • High-Quality Service Is Key Differentiator for European Banks 2018 Greenwich Leaders: European Large Corporate Banking and Cash Management
    High-Quality Service is Key Differentiator for European Banks 2018 Greenwich Leaders: European Large Corporate Banking and Cash Management Q1 2018 After weathering the chaos of the financial crisis and the subsequent restructuring of the European banking industry, Europe’s largest companies are enjoying a welcome phase of stability in their banking relationships. Credit is abundant (at least for big companies with good credit ratings), service is good and getting better, and banks are getting easier to work with. Aside from European corporates, the primary beneficiaries of this new stability are the big banks that already count many of Europe’s largest companies as clients. At the top of that list sits BNP Paribas, which is used for corporate banking by 65% of Europe’s largest companies. HSBC is next at 56%, followed by Deutsche Bank at 43%, UniCredit at 38% and Citi at 37%. These banks are the 2018 Greenwich Share Leaders℠ in European Top-Tier Large Corporate Banking.

  • ING Credit Update 4Q2020
    ING Credit Update 4Q2020 ING Investor Relations 12 February 2021 Key points . 2020 was a year marked by the Covid-19 pandemic and the unprecedented challenges it presented to our customers, employees and society. We continue to take actions to provide support and with vaccination programmes being rolled out globally, we look forward to return to more normal circumstances in the near future . We continue our efforts to build a sustainable company, also reflected in our strong ESG profile . The current environment underscores the strength of our digital business model. We continued to grow primary customers, as they choose us as their go-to bank, while mobile interactions further increased . Pre-provision result was resilient, though the impact from Covid-19 is visible, most notably on lending and savings. After years of growth, 2020 net core lending was down by €2.5 bln, while net deposit inflow was high at €41.4 bln . Fee growth was good, as our actions on investment products and daily banking more than compensated for the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on fees for payments and lending . 2020 risk costs were €2.7 bln with ~30% in Stage 1 and 2, mainly due to Covid-19, reflecting IFRS 9 related provisions and management overlays. For 2021 we expect to move close to our through-the–cycle average of ~25 bps . The Stage 3 ratio remained low at 1.7% and we are confident on the quality of our loan book, supported by a proven risk management framework with a strong track record, also compared to peers .

Bloomberg News Story 10/02/2019 16:01:02 [BN] Bloomberg News Bloomberg FX Forecast Accuracy Ranking - Majors Q3’2019 By Wei Lu (Bloomberg) -- Q3’2019 FX forecasters are ranked based on three criteria: margin of error, timing (for identical forecasts, earlier ones received more credit) and directional accuracy (movements with the currency’s overall direction). The ranking below, which was based on Bloomberg’s foreign exchange forecasts (FXFC), was for forecasters who provided forecasts for Q3’2019 in at least three of the four preceding quarters but no later than one month prior to September 30, 2019. Scores were calculated each quarter for the three criteria, which were weighted 60 percent, 30 percent and 10 percent, respectively. The final score for each currency pair was the time-weighted average of the four quarterly scores. The best overall forecasters were identified by averaging the individual scores for each firm on all 13 currency pairs and all four quarters. Forecasters had to be ranked in at least eight of the 13 pairs to qualify for the overall ranking (50 firms qualified). All ranking tables display the top 20 percent of the forecasters who were eligible, to a maximum of 10 names.
