Risk management
Basis of disclosures (*)
The risk management section contains information relating to the nature and extent of the risks of
financial instruments as required by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) 7 \u2018Financial
Instruments: Disclosures\u2019. These disclosures are an integral part of the ING Group Consolidated financial
statements and are indicated by the symbol (*). This is applicable for the chapters, paragraphs, graphs
or tables within the risk management section that are indicated with this symbol in the respective
headings or table header.
This risk management section includes additional disclosures beyond those required by IFRS standards, such
as certain legal and regulatory disclosures. Not all information in this section can be reconciled back to the
primary financial statements and corresponding notes, as it has been prepared using risk data that differs to
the accounting basis of measurement. Disclosures in accordance with Part Eight of the CRR2 and CRD V, and
as required by the supervisory authority, are published in our \u2018Additional Pillar III Report\u2019, which can be found
on our corporate website ing.com.
Credit risk
Credit & counterparty risk categories (*)
In the following table the different types of credit and counterparty risk categories are described and a
reconciliation with the notes in the financial statements is also included:

Contingent liabilities and commitments
Investment risk: The credit default and risk rating migration risk that is associated with ING\u2019s investments in bonds,
commercial paper, equities, securitisations and other similar publicly traded securities. This can be viewed as the
potential loss that ING may incur from holding a position in underlying securities whose issuer's credit quality
deteriorates or defaults.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
5
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
6
Debt securities
Money market risk: This arises when ING places short-term deposits with a counterparty in order to manage excess
liquidity. In the event of a counterparty default, ING may lose the deposit placed.

Cash and balances with central banks
3
Loans and advances to banks
7
Loans and advances to customers
Pre-settlement risk: This arises when a client defaults on a transaction before settlement and ING must replace the
contract by a trade with another counterparty at the then prevailing (possibly unfavourable) market price. This credit
risk category is associated with derivatives transactions (exchange-traded derivatives, over-the-counter (OTC)
derivatives and securities financing transactions).

Offsetting financial assets and liabilities
Settlement risk: This arises when there is an exchange of value (funds or instruments) and receipt from its counterparty
is not verified or expected until after ING has given irrevocable instructions to pay or has paid or delivered its side of the
trade. The risk is that ING delivers but does not receive delivery from its counterparty.

Credit risk appetite and concentration risk framework (*)
The credit risk appetite and concentration risk framework is designed to prevent undesired high levels of
credit risk and credit concentrations within various levels of the ING portfolio. It is derived from the concepts
of boundaries and instruments as described in the ING RAF.
Credit risk appetite is the maximum level of credit risk ING is willing to accept for growth and value creation.
The credit risk appetite is linked to the overall bank-wide RAF and is expressed in quantitative and qualitative
measures.
The credit risk appetite is set at different levels and dimensions within ING. The credit risk appetite framework
specifies the scope and focus of the credit risk which ING takes and the composition of the credit portfolio,
including its concentration and diversification objectives in relation to business lines, locations, sectors and
products. The credit risk appetite framework has also been extended to embed climate risk elements. The
climate risk elements within the credit risk appetite framework allow for more efficient steering of sector
concentrations from a climate risk perspective.
The credit concentration risk framework is composed of:
\u2022 Country risk concentration: Country risk is the risk that arises due to events in a specific country (or
group of countries). To manage the maximum country loss ING is willing to accept, boundaries are
approved by the SB. The estimated level is correlated to the risk rating assigned to a given country. Actual
country limits are set by means of country instruments, which are monitored monthly and updated,
when needed. For countries with elevated levels of geopolitical or severe economic cycle risk, monitoring
is performed on a more frequent basis with strict pipeline and exposure management.
\u2022 Single name and secondary risk concentration: ING has an established credit concentration risk
framework to identify, measure and monitor single name concentration including secondary risk. The
same concept of boundaries and instruments is applicable.
\u2022 Sector and product concentration risk are managed via the credit risk appetite framework.
Credit risk models (*)
Within ING, internal CRR-compliant models are used to determine probability of default (PD), exposure at
default (EAD) and loss given default (LGD) for regulatory and economic capital purposes. These models also
form the basis of ING\u2019s IFRS 9 loan loss provisioning (see \u2018IFRS 9 models\u2019 below).
There are two main types of PD, EAD and LGD models used throughout the bank:
\u2022 Statistical models are created where a large set of default or detailed loss data is available. They are
characterised by sufficient data points to facilitate meaningful statistical estimation of the model
parameters. The model parameters are estimated with statistical techniques based on the data set
available.
\u2022 Hybrid models are statistical models supplemented with knowledge and experience of experts from risk
management and front-office staff, literature from rating agencies, supervisors and academics. These
models are only used for \u2018low default portfolios\u2019, where limited historical defaults exist.
Credit risk rating process (*)
The majority of risk ratings are based on a risk rating (PD) model that complies with the minimum
requirements detailed in CRR/CRD, ECB Supervisory Rules and European Banking Authority (EBA) guidelines.
This concerns all borrower types and segments.
ING\u2019s PD rating models are based on a 1-22 internal risk rating scale (1 = highest rating; 22 = lowest rating)
referred to as the \u2018master scale\u2019, which roughly corresponds to the rating grades that are assigned by
external rating agencies, such as Standard & Poor\u2019s, Moody\u2019s and Fitch. For example, an ING rating of 1
corresponds to an S&P/Fitch rating of AAA and a Moody\u2019s rating of Aaa; an ING rating of 2 corresponds to an
S&P/Fitch rating of AA+ and a Moody\u2019s rating of Aa1, and so on.
The 22 internal risk rating grades are composed of the following categories:
\u2022 Investment grade (risk rating 1-10);
\u2022 Non-investment grade (risk rating 11-17);
\u2022 Performing Restructuring (risk rating 18-19); and
\u2022 Non-performing (risk rating 20-22).
The first three categories (1-19) are risk ratings for performing loans. Ratings are calculated in IT systems
with internally developed models, based on manually or automatically fed data, or for part of the non-
performing loans set by the global or regional credit restructuring department. Under certain conditions, the
outcome of a manually fed model can be challenged through a rating appeal process. For securitisation
portfolios, the external ratings of the tranche in which ING has invested are leading indicators.
Risk ratings assigned to clients are reviewed at least annually, with the performance of the underlying
models monitored regularly. Some of these models are global in nature, such as those for large corporates,
commercial banks, insurance companies, central governments, funds, fund managers, project finance and
leveraged companies. Other models are more regional or country-specific: there are PD models for small and
medium enterprises (SMEs) in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Poland as well as residential mortgage and
consumer loan models in the various retail markets.
Rating models for Retail clients are predominantly statistically driven and automated, such that ratings can
be updated on a monthly basis. Rating models for large corporates, institutions and banks include both
statistical characteristics and expert input, with the ratings being manually updated at least annually. More
frequent reviews (e.g. quarterly) are performed where considered necessary.
In line with evolving regulatory expectations on models and emerging industry practices, ING has embarked
on a multi-year redevelopment process of its credit risk models. This is also in line with ING\u2019s model
governance to ensure continuous improvement of models.
Credit risk portfolio (*)
ING\u2019s credit exposure is mainly related to lending to individuals (also referred to as consumer lending, all
Retail) and businesses (referred to as business lending, both in Retail and Wholesale), followed by
investments in bonds and securitised assets, and money market (Wholesale). Loans to individuals are mainly
mortgage loans secured by residential property. Loans (including guarantees issued) to businesses are often
collateralised, but may be unsecured based on the internal analysis of the borrower\u2019s creditworthiness.
Bonds in the investment portfolio are generally unsecured, but predominantly consist of bonds issued by
central governments and EU and/or OECD-based financial institutions. Secured bonds, such as mortgage-
backed securities and asset-backed securities are secured by the underlying diversified pool of assets
(commercial or residential mortgages, car loans and/or other assets) held by the securities issuer. For money
market, exposure is mainly deposits to central banks. The last major credit risk source involves pre-
settlement exposures which arise from trading activities, including derivatives, repurchase transactions and
securities lending/borrowing transactions. This is also commonly referred to as counterparty credit risk.
Overall portfolio (*)
During 2024, ING\u2019s portfolio size increased by \u20ac30.3 billion (3.2%) to \u20ac961.9 billion outstanding. Foreign
exchange rate changes had a positive impact on the portfolio growth, mainly in WB, increasing total
outstanding by \u20ac8.0 billion, driven by the appreciation of the US dollar against the euro. Retail banking
increased by \u20ac18.9 billion mainly due to underlying growth in residential mortgages.
Rating distribution (*)
Overall, the rating class distribution remained stable in 2024. The share of investment grade rating classes
increased from 76.8% to 78.1%, while the share of non-investment grade decreased from 21.2% to 19.9%.
Performing restructuring outstandings decreased from 0.7% to 0.6% of the total portfolio, whereas non-
performing loans increased from 1.3% to 1.4%.
With respect to the rating distribution within the business lines, in WB, investment grade increased to 83.7%
from 81.2%, while non-investment grade exposures decreased to 14.6% from 17.1% compared to 2023.
Performing restructuring assets decreased from 0.7% to 0.6% of total Wholesale Banking assets where non-
performing loans for WB increased from 1.0% to 1.2%. The non-performing loans (NPL) increase in
Wholesale Banking is mainly caused by Russian exposures as well as a few large NPLs that are unrelated in
terms of asset class, sector or geography.
For Retail Banking, investment grade increased to 73.3% from 73.0%, while non-investment grade exposures
decreased to 24.4% from 24.9% as compared to 2023. Performing restructuring increased to 0.7% from 0.6%
whereas NPL remained constant at 1.5% in 2024.
Industry (*)
The industry breakdown is presented in accordance with the NAICS definition. The increase of \u20ac30.3 billion in
total volume during 2024 was mainly due to the increase in Private Individuals (\u20ac18.4 billion), Non-Bank
Financial Institutions (\u20ac8.8 billion) and Commercial Banks (\u20ac5.2 billion). The share of Private Individuals
increased from 38.8% last year to 39.5%.

1 Based on credit risk measurement contained in lending, pre-settlement, money market and investment activities.
2 Based on the total amount of credit risk in the respective column using ING\u2019s internal credit risk measurement methodologies.
Economic sectors (industry) below 2% are not shown separately but grouped in Other.
3 Geographical areas are based on country of residence, except for Private Individuals, for which the geographical areas are based on
the primary country of risk.
Portfolio analysis per geographical area (*)
The portfolio analysis per geographical area re-emphasises the international distribution of ING\u2019s credit
portfolio. The Netherlands maintains the largest portfolio share in a single country with 21.9% (2023: 22.9%)
of the total amount, followed by Germany with 16.2% (2023: 16.6%) and Belgium with 12.7% (2023: 12.4%).
In terms of region, the majority of the portfolio balance remained in Europe with 80% (2023: 79%), followed
by Americas with 9.3% (2023: 8.7%) and Australia with 6.0% (2023: 5.9%). The top five countries within Rest
of Europe based on outstandings were Italy (\u20ac20.7 billion), Switzerland (\u20ac16.4 billion), Romania (\u20ac12.4 billion),
T\u00fcrkiye (\u20ac8.6 billion) and Ireland (\u20ac4.8 billion).
The main contributors for the overall increase in outstanding are Americas (+\u20ac7.9 billion), Belgium
(+\u20ac6.2 billion), Poland (+\u20ac2.8 billion) and France (+\u20ac2.8 billion).\u00a0
Private Individuals remained the largest composition of portfolio balances for the Netherlands at 58.3%
(2023: 54.6%), Belgium at 37.4% (2023: 38.5%), Germany at 68.8% (2023: 66.5%) and Australia at 66.1%
(2023: 65.6%). The decrease in Central Banks is mainly attributed to the Netherlands (\u20ac8.5 billion explaining
the decrease in WB Netherlands outstanding), Germany (\u20ac5.0 billion) and Asia (\u20ac4.1 billion).\u00a0
In individual countries, the total share of investment grade/non-investment grade remains substantial for
the Netherlands at 98.5% (2023: 98.6%), Germany at 98.9% (2023: 99.1%) and in Belgium 96.6% (2023:
96.6%).
In Europe, the increase in investment grade was mainly witnessed in Poland (+\u20ac4.3 billion), France
(+\u20ac3.2 billion), Spain (+\u20ac3.2 billion), Belgium (+\u20ac3.2 billion) and Luxembourg (+\u20ac3.2 billion). Non-investment
grade decreased in the Netherlands (-\u20ac2.7 billion), Poland (-\u20ac1.8 billion), Luxembourg (-\u20ac1.2 billion) and Spain
(-\u20ac1.0 billion).

Credit risk mitigation (*)
ING uses various techniques and instruments to mitigate the credit risk associated with an exposure and to
reduce the losses incurred subsequent to a default by a customer. The most common terminology used in
ING for credit risk protection is \u2018cover\u2019. While a cover may be an important mitigant of credit risk and an
alternative source of repayment, generally it is ING\u2019s practice to lend on the basis of the customer\u2019s
creditworthiness rather than exclusively relying on the value of the cover.
Cover forms (*)
Within ING, there are two distinct forms of covers. First, where the asset has been pledged to ING as
collateral or security, ING has the right to liquidate it should the customer be unable to fulfil its financial
obligation. As such, the proceeds can be applied towards full or partial compensation of the customer's
outstanding exposure. This may be tangible (such as cash, securities, receivables, inventory, plant and
machinery, and mortgages on real estate properties) or intangible (such as patents, trademarks, contract
rights and licences). Second, where there is a third-party obligation, indemnification or undertaking (either
by contract and/or by law), ING has the right to claim from that third party an amount if the customer fails
on its obligations. The most common examples are guarantees, such as parent guarantees, export credit
insurances or third-party pledged mortgages. Insurance or reinsurance covers, including comprehensive
private risk insurance (CPRI) may be recognised as guarantees and effectively function in an equivalent
manner. ING accepts credit risk insurance companies and export credit agencies (ECAs) as cover providers.
Cover valuation methodology (*)
General guidelines for cover valuation are established with the objective of ensuring consistent application
within ING. These also require that the value of the cover is monitored on a regular basis. Covers are revalued
periodically and whenever there is reason to believe that the market is subject to significant changes in
conditions. The frequency of monitoring and revaluation depends on the type of cover.
The valuation method also depends on the type of covers. For asset collateral, the valuation sources can be
the customer\u2019s balance sheet (e.g. inventory, machinery and equipment), nominal value (e.g. cash and
receivables), market value (e.g. securities and commodities), independent valuations (e.g. commercial real
estate) and market indices (e.g. residential real estate). For third-party obligations, the valuation is based on
the value that is attributed to the contract between ING and that third party.
Where collateral values are used in the calculation of Stage 3 individual loan loss provisions, haircuts may be
applied to the valuation in specific circumstances, to sufficiently include all relevant factors impacting future
cash flows. ING applies haircuts to the collateral values of real estate, shipping and aviation assets that are
used in the calculation of the loss-given-default in recovery scenarios. The haircut reflects the risks of
adverse price developments between the moment of valuation of an asset and the actual settlement/cash
receipt.
Cover values (*)
This section provides insight into the types of cover and the extent to which exposures benefit from collateral
or guarantees. The disclosure differentiates between risk categories (lending, investment, money market
and pre-settlement). The most relevant types of cover include mortgages, financial collateral (cash and
securities), guarantees and other covers (mainly pledges). ING obtains covers that are eligible for credit risk
mitigation under CRR/CRDIV, as well as covers that are not eligible. Collateral covering financial market
transactions is valued on a daily basis, and as such not included in the following tables. To mitigate the credit
risk arising from financial markets transactions, the bank enters into legal agreements governing the
exchange of financial collateral (high-quality government bonds and cash).
The cover values are presented for the total portfolio of ING, both the performing and non-performing
portfolio.

The above tables gives an overview of the collateralisation of ING\u2019s total portfolio. Excluding the pre-
settlement portfolio, 55.9% (2023: 55.0%) of ING\u2019s outstandings were fully collateralised in 2024. Since
investments traditionally do not require covers, the \u2018no covers\u2019 percentage in this portfolio is over 99%.
Consumer lending portfolio (*)
The consumer lending portfolio accounts for 39.4% (2023: 38.7%) of ING\u2019s total outstanding, primarily
consisting of residential mortgage loans and other consumer lending loans. As a result, most collateral
consists of mortgages. Mortgage values are collected in an internal central database and in most cases
external data is used to index the market value. A significant part of ING\u2019s residential mortgage portfolio is in
the Netherlands (34.6%), Germany (27.5%), Belgium including Luxembourg (12.8%) and Australia (10.8%).
Note that the large increase in Other covers and decrease in Financial Collateral is related to a
reclassification of certain cover types.
Business lending portfolio (*)
Business lending accounts for 38.3% (2023: 39.1%) of ING\u2019s total outstanding. Business lending presented in
this section does not include pre-settlement, investment and money market exposures.
Credit quality (*)
ING uses three distinct statuses to categorise the management of clients with (perceived) deteriorating
credit risk profiles. ING usually classifies a client first with a \u201cwatch list\u201d status when there are concerns of
any potential or material deterioration in credit risk profile that may affect the ability of the client to adhere
to its debt service obligations or to refinance its existing loans. Watch list status requires more than usual
attention, increased monitoring and quarterly reviews. Furthermore, ING makes use of Early Warning
Indicators (EWIs) in daily credit risk management processes in non-Retail portfolios which relate to a change
in (internal and/or external) circumstances or outlook of the specific Obligor, the sector or portfolio. Some
clients with a watch list or EWI status may develop into a performing restructuring status (performing loans
that hold a reasonable probability that ING will end up with a loss, if no specific action is taken) or a non-
performing status.
When there is increasing doubt as to the performance and the collectability of the client\u2019s contractual
obligations the loans are managed by Global Credit Restructuring (GCR) or by restructuring units in the
various regions and business units. The statuses and links with rating grades are illustrated in the table
below.

Past due obligations (*)
Retail Banking measures its portfolio in terms of payment arrears and determines on a monthly basis if there
are any significant changes in the level of arrears. This methodology is applicable to private individuals, as
well as business lending. An obligation is considered \u2018past due\u2019 if a payment of interest or principal is more
than one day late. ING aims to help its customers as soon as they are past due by reminding them of their
payment obligations. In its contact with customers, ING aims to solve the (potential) financial difficulties by
offering a range of measures (e.g. payment arrangements, restructuring). If the issues cannot be resolved,
for example because the customer is unable or unwilling to pay, the contract is sent to the recovery unit. The
facility is downgraded to risk rating 20 (non-performing) when the facility or obligor \u2013 depending on the level
at which the non-performing status is applied \u2013 is more than 90 days past due and to risk rating 21 or 22 in
case of an exit scenario.

The past due but performing consumer lending outstanding decreased by \u20ac44 million, due to a decrease in
1-30 days (-\u20ac64 million) which was partially offset by an increase in 31-60 (+\u20ac22 million). The largest
decrease was observed in Belgium (-\u20ac32 million) and Germany (-\u20ac22 million), mainly in the 1-30 days
bucket. The largest increase was seen in Rest of Europe (+\u20ac18 million).

Total past due but performing outstanding of business lending increased by \u20ac0.3 billion. Increase was
witnessed in the 1\u201330 days past due bucket (\u20ac1.4 billion) which was offset by the decrease observed in the
31-60 days (-\u20ac0.9 billion) and 61-90 days (-\u20ac0.2 billion) past due buckets. The largest increase was in the
Americas (\u20ac0.9 billion) while the largest decrease was in the United Kingdom (-\u20ac0.6 billion).
Forbearance (*)
Forbearance occurs when a client is unable to meet their financial commitments due to financial difficulties
they face or are about to face and ING grants concessions towards them. Forborne assets are assets in
respect of which forbearance measures have been granted.
Forbearance may enable clients experiencing financial difficulties to continue repaying their debt.
For business clients, ING mainly applies forbearance measures to support clients with fundamentally sound
business models that are experiencing temporary difficulties. The aim is to maximise the client\u2019s repayment
ability, thereby avoiding a default situation, or help the client to return to a performing situation.
For ING Retail units, clear criteria have been established to determine whether a client is eligible for the
forbearance process. Specific approval mandates are in place to approve the measures, as well as
procedures to manage, monitor and report the forbearance activities.
ING reviews the performance of forborne exposures at least quarterly, either on a case-by-case (Business) or
on a portfolio (Retail) basis.
All exposures are eligible for forbearance measures, i.e. both performing (risk ratings 1-19) and non-
performing (risk ratings 20-22) exposures. ING uses specific criteria to move forborne exposures from non-
performing to performing or to remove the forbearance statuses that are consistent with the corresponding
European Banking Authority (EBA) standards. An exposure is reported as forborne for a minimum of two
years. An additional one-year probation period is applied to forborne exposures that move from non-
performing back to performing.

Net decrease in WB is driven by the performing forborne exposures -\u20ac728 million. Non-performing forborne
assets increased by \u20ac599 million, mainly in Chemicals, Health & Pharmaceuticals and in Real Estate in line
with earlier mentioned NPL increases.
WB's forborne assets are mainly concentrated in real estate; food, beverages & personal care; natural
resources; chemicals, health & pharmaceuticals; and utilities. These five sectors accounted for 68.3% of the
total WB forborne outstandings.
Retail Banking (*)
As of 31 December 2024, Retail Banking forborne assets amounted to \u20ac6.9 billion (2023: \u20ac7.0 billion), which
represented 1.3% (2023: 1.4%) of the total RB portfolio. 26.7% of the forborne exposures were in Private
Individuals.\u00a0

The main concentration of forborne assets in a single country was in Belgium with 28.2% (2023: 30.6%) of
total Retail Banking forborne assets and 39.4% (2023: 45.4%) of the non-performing forborne assets,
followed by the Netherlands with 22.5% (2023: 21.1%) and Germany having 20.0% (2023: 18.6%) of the total
Retail forborne assets.
Non-performing loans (*)
ING has aligned the regulatory concept of non-performing with that of the definition of default. Hence,
borrowers are classified as non-performing when a default trigger occurs:
\u2022 ING believes the borrower is unlikely to pay. The borrower has evidenced significant financial difficulty, to
the extent that it will have a negative impact on the future cash flows of the financial asset. The following
events could be seen as indicators of financial difficulty:
\u2022 The borrower (or third party) has started insolvency proceedings;
\u2022 A group company/co-borrower has NPL status;
\u2022 Indication of fraud (affecting the company\u2019s ability to service its debt);
\u2022 There is doubt as to the borrower\u2019s ability to generate stable and sufficient cash flows to service its
debt; and
\u2022 Restructuring of debt.
\u2022 ING has granted concessions relating to the borrower\u2019s financial difficulty, the effect of which is a
reduction in expected future cash flows of the financial asset below current carrying amount.
\u2022 The obligor has failed in the payment of principal, interest or fees; the total past due amount is above the
materiality threshold and this remains the case for more than 90 consecutive days.
Further, WB has an individual name approach, using early warning indicators to signal possible future issues
in debt service.
The table below represents the breakdown of credit risk outstandings that have been classified as non-
performing by sector and business line.

In 2024, the NPL portfolio increased to \u20ac13.3 billion, an increase in Wholesale Banking (+\u20ac1.2 billion) together
with an increase in Retail Banking (+\u20ac0.5 billion). The increase in Wholesale Banking was mainly witnessed in
real estate; chemicals, health & pharmaceuticals; and in natural resources, partially offset by telecom. In
Retail Banking, the increase was concentrated in Private Individuals. The top three countries by NPL
outstanding are Belgium, the Netherlands and Poland.
Loan loss provisioning (*)
ING recognises loss allowances based on the expected credit loss (ECL) model of IFRS 9, which is designed to
be forward-looking. The IFRS 9 impairment requirements are applicable to on-balance-sheet financial assets
measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI), such as loans, debt
securities and lease receivables, as well as off-balance-sheet items such as undrawn loan commitments,
financial- and non-financial guarantees issued.
ING distinguishes between two types of calculation methods for credit loss allowances:
\u2022 Collective 12-month ECL (Stage 1) and collective lifetime ECL (Stage 2) for portfolios of financial
instruments, as well as collective lifetime ECL for credit-impaired exposures (Stage 3) below \u20ac1 million;
and
\u2022 Individual lifetime ECL for credit-impaired (Stage 3) financial instruments with exposures above \u20ac1 million.
IFRS 9 models (*)
ING\u2019s IFRS 9 models leverage on the internal rating-based (IRB) models (PD, LGD, EAD), which include certain
required conservatism. To include IFRS 9 requirements, such regulatory conservatism is removed from the
ECL parameters (PD, LGD and EAD). The IFRS 9 models apply two other types of adjustments to the IRB ECL
parameters: (i) to the economic outlook and (ii) for Stage 2 and Stage 3 assets only, to the lifetime horizon.
The IFRS 9 model parameters are estimated based on statistical techniques and supported by expert
judgement.
ING has aligned the definition of default for regulatory purposes with the definition of \u2018credit-impaired\u2019
financial assets under IFRS 9 (Stage 3). ING has also aligned its definition of default between IFRS 9 and the
regulatory technical standards (RTS) and EBA guidelines. More information can be found in section 1.5.6 of
the consolidated financial statements.
Climate and environmental risks in IFRS 9 models (*)
Climate risk drivers (physical and transition risks) can reduce the ability of businesses and households to fulfil
their obligations due on existing lending contracts. These may also lead to the depreciation/erosion of
collateral values, which would translate into higher credit losses and loan-to-value ratios in the lending
portfolio of ING.
Currently, it is not yet possible to fully incorporate climate risk separately into IFRS 9 ECL models given the
lack of sufficient empirical historical data and data limitations in the risk assessments on client level.
However, ING has taken next steps in 2024 to more explicitly cover for climate-risk drivers in loan loss
provisioning. A management adjustment to ECL models for business clients was introduced to specifically
cover for the medium- to long-term transition risk on high greenhouse gas-emitting sectors. For households,
particularly the mortgage book, next step in the development will be to apply differentiation in collateral
valuation based on EPC labels.
Additionally, where climate and environmental factors have impacted the economy in the recent past or
present, these impacts are implicitly embedded in ING\u2019s IFRS 9 ECL models through the projected
macroeconomic indicators (e.g. indirectly via GDP growth and unemployment rates). We note, however, that
our ECL models are primarily sensitive to the short-term economic outlook as we use a three-year time
horizon for macroeconomic outlook, after which a mean reversion approach is applied.
With regard to our evaluation of specific climate-related matters, particularly physical risk events that have
already occurred (e.g. floods, stranded assets etc.), the impact of such events is individually assessed in the
calculation of Stage 3 individual provisions, collective SICR or management adjustments to ECL models. For
example, we consider whether affected assets have suffered from a significant increase in credit risk (or are
credit impaired) and whether the ECL is appropriate. Furthermore as at 31 December 2024 we have reported
a management adjustment for the increased expected credit risk in the Mortgage and Consumer Lending
portfolio in Spain due to payment holidays provided for customers with collateral or activities in the Valencia
area impacted by the severe floods in the fourth quarter of 2024. For more, see \u2018Management adjustments
applied this reporting period\u2019.
Going forward, ING aims to continue to improve on climate risk data, which will enable us to further embed
climate risks into the IFRS 9 ECL models. For further details on ESG risk management, see \u2018ESG risk\u2019
Portfolio quality (*)
The table below describes the portfolio composition over the different IFRS 9 stages and rating classes. The
Stage 1 portfolio represents 91.1% (2023: 91.5%) of the total gross carrying amounts, mainly composed of
investment grade, while Stage 2 makes up 7.6% (2023: 7.4%) and Stage 3 makes up 1.3% (2023: 1.2%) of the
total gross carrying amounts, respectively.

1 Compared to the credit risk portfolio, the differences are mainly undrawn committed amounts (\u20ac156 billion; 2023: \u20ac151 billion) and other positions (\u20ac6 billion; 2023: \u20ac9 billion) not included in credit outstandings and non-IFRS 9 eligible assets (\u20ac75 billion; 2023: \u20ac67 billion), mainly
pre-settlement exposures) included in credit outstandings but not in the gross carrying amounts.
2 Stage 3 lifetime credit impaired provision includes \u20ac21 million (2023: \u20ac11 million) on purchased or originated credit impaired.
Changes in gross carrying amounts and loan loss provisions (*)
The table below provides a reconciliation by stage of the gross carrying amount and allowances for loans
and advances to banks and customers, including loan commitments and financial guarantees. The transfers
of financial instruments represent the impact of stage transfers upon the gross carrying/nominal amount
and associated allowance for ECL. This includes the net-remeasurement of ECL arising from stage transfers,
for example, moving from a 12-month (Stage 1) to a lifetime (Stage 2) ECL measurement basis.
The net-remeasurement line represents the changes in provisions for facilities that remain in the same
stage.
Please note the following comments with respect to the movements observed in the table below:
\u2022 Stage 3 gross carrying amount increased by \u20ac1.7 billion from \u20ac12.0 billion as at 31 December 2023 to
\u20ac13.7 billion as at 31 December 2024, mainly as a result of \u20ac4.8 billion net inflow into NPL (credit
impaired) in 2024 which is offset by \u20ac1.8 billion derecognitions and repayments and \u20ac1.3 billion write-offs
and disposals. Following the increase in carrying amount, Stage 3 provisions increased by \u20ac0.6 billion.
\u2022 Stage 2 gross carrying amounts increased by \u20ac4.4 billion from \u20ac75.5 billion as at 31 December 2023 to
\u20ac79.9 billion as at 31 December 2024, largely driven by \u20ac23.7 billion net transfers from Stage 1 into Stage
2, including the impact of changes in risk drivers (including updated macro-economic forecasts), model
redevelopments mainly for Wholesale Banking models and new Stage 2 overlays. This was offset by a
decrease of exposure by \u20ac16.2 billion due to derecognised financial assets (including sales), repayments
and \u20ac2.9 billion exposure moving to Stage 3. Stage 2 provisions decreased by \u20ac0.3 billion to \u20ac1.1 billion as
of 31 December 2024.

1 Stage 3 lifetime credit impaired provision includes \u20ac21 million (2023:\u20ac11 million) on purchased or originated credit impaired.
2 The addition to the loan provision (in the consolidated statement of profit or loss) amounts to \u20ac1,194 million (2023: \u20ac520 million) of which \u20ac1,170 million (2023: \u20ac483 million) related to IFRS 9 eligible financial assets, \u20ac9 million (2023: \u20ac-31 million) related to non-credit
replacement guarantees and \u20ac15 million (2023: \u20ac67 million) to modification gains and losses on restructured financial assets.

Macroeconomic scenarios and sensitivity analysis of key sources of estimation
uncertainty (*)
Methodology (*)
Our methodology in relation to the adoption and generation of macroeconomic scenarios is described in this
section. We continue to follow this methodology in generating our probability-weighted ECL, with
consideration of alternative scenarios and management adjustments supplementing this ECL where, in
management's opinion, the consensus forecast does not fully capture the extent of recent credit or
economic events. The macroeconomic scenarios are applicable to the whole ING portfolio in the scope of
IFRS 9 ECLs.
The IFRS 9 standard, with its inherent complexities and potential impact on the carrying amounts of our
assets and liabilities, represents a key source of estimation uncertainty. In particular, ING\u2019s reportable ECL
numbers are sensitive to the forward-looking macroeconomic forecasts used as model inputs, the
probability-weights applied to each of the three scenarios, and the criteria for identifying a significant
increase in credit risk. As such, these crucial components require consultation and management judgement,
and are subject to extensive governance.
Baseline scenario (*)
As a baseline for IFRS 9, ING has adopted a market-neutral view combining consensus forecasts for economic
variables (GDP, unemployment) with market forwards (for interest rates, exchange rates and oil prices). Input
from a leading third-party service provider is used to complement the consensus with consistent projections
for variables for which there are no consensus estimates available (most notably house prices and \u2013 for
some countries \u2013 unemployment), to generate alternative scenarios, to convert annual consensus
information to a quarterly frequency and to ensure general consistency of the scenarios. As the baseline
scenario is consistent with the consensus view, it can be considered as free from any bias.
The relevance and selection of macroeconomic variables is defined by the ECL models under credit risk
model governance. The scenarios are reviewed and challenged by two panels of ING experts. The first panel
consists of (economic) experts from Global Markets Research, risk and modelling, while the second panel
consists of relevant senior managers in ING.
Alternative scenarios and probability weights (*)
Two alternative scenarios are taken into account: an upside and a downside scenario. The alternative
scenarios have statistical characteristics as they are based on the forecast deviations of the leading third-
party service provider.
To understand the baseline level of uncertainty around any forecast, the leading third-party service provider
keeps track of all its deviations (so-called forecast errors) of the past 20 years. The distribution of forecast
errors for GDP, unemployment, house prices and share prices is applied to the baseline forecast creating a
broad range of alternative outcomes. In addition, to understand the balance of risks facing the economy in
an unbiased way, the leading third-party service provider runs a survey with respondents from around the
world and across a broad range of industries. In this survey, respondents put forward their views of key risks.
Following the survey results, the distribution of forecast errors (that is being used for determining the
scenarios) may be skewed.
For the downside scenario, ING has chosen the 90th percentile of that distribution because this corresponds
with the way risk management earnings-at-risk is defined within the Group. The upside scenario is
represented by the 10th percentile of the distribution. The applicable percentiles of the distribution imply a
20 percent probability for each alternative scenario. Consequently, the baseline scenario has a 60 percent
probability weighting. Please note that, given their technical nature, the downside and upside scenarios are
not based on an explicit specific narrative.
Macroeconomic scenarios applied (*)
The macroeconomic scenarios applied in the calculation of loan loss provisions are based on the consensus
forecasts.
Baseline assumptions (*)
The general picture that the consensus conveys is that global economic growth is diverging between major
blocs. US growth is expected to continue to outpace European markets, while China is expected to continue
on a declining growth trend, but still at higher rates than seen in advanced markets. Inflation is expected to
remain near target for most advanced economies, although it is set to remain above target for the United
States. With interest rates moderating, although some uncertainty about this path for the US exists at this
point, monetary conditions should turn more favourable for growth. For the housing market, continued price
growth is expected for almost all main markets.
The December 2024 consensus expects global output (as measured by the weighted average GDP growth
rate of ING\u2019s 25 main markets) to slow from 2.5 percent in 2024 to 2.4 percent in 2025. For 2026-2027,
economic growth is expected to come in at 2.4 percent and 2.3 percent respectively.\u00a0
The American economy continues to perform very well despite signs of a slowing labour market around the
summer of 2024. Inflation has come down to more benign levels, which has prompted the Federal Reserve to
lower interest rates. Still, inflation remains above the 2% target and the outlook for inflation has become
more uncertain. The US administration\u2019s economic plans are set to stimulate the economy for 2025, as
reflected in the increased expectations for 2025 GDP of consensus forecasters. The consensus expects the
growth rate of the US economy to slow from 2.7 percent in 2024 to 2.0 percent for both 2025 and 2026.
The eurozone economy has seen some growth return in 2024 after a long period of stagnation that started
during the energy crisis. Still, expectations for 2025 remain modest. The export environment continues to be
plagued by weak global demand and investments are stymied by high interest rates and weak
manufacturing performance. Expectations of a pickup in growth over the course of the year hang on
domestic drivers like a pickup in real wage growth and continued rate cuts from the ECB at the start of the
year. Consensus expects the eurozone to have grown by only 0.8 percent in 2024, before recovering slightly
to 1.0 percent and 1.2 percent in 2025 and 2026 respectively.
Elsewhere in Europe, the outlook is more upbeat. In Poland, domestic demand appears to remain the key
growth driver over the near-term forecast. Foremost, consumers remain willing to spend, encouraged by
elevated wage growth and a resilient labour market. The economy is expected to grow by 2.7 percent in
2024, picking up to 3.5 percent in 2025 and 3.8 percent in 2026. The consensus expectation for T\u00fcrkiye is to
see growth slow, which is being confirmed by weak incoming data. Consensus expects growth to slow from
3.1 percent in 2024 to 2.6 percent in 2025, in part due to soft demand from export orders. For 2026, a
recovery to 3.5 percent is expected. The Russian economy is expected to slow substantially in 2025 after a
strong 2024. Growth is expected to drop from 3.7 percent in 2024 to 1.6 percent in 2025 and 1.3 percent in
2026.
For China, economic underperformance continues as it still struggles with the impact of the real estate
correction and weak domestic demand. Large scale stimulus plans and a possible bottoming out of the real
estate market do help economic forecasts for the short-run, although medium term consensus continues to
be downbeat for the moment. For 2024, consensus expects 4.8 percent growth, down to 4.4 percent in 2025
and 4.1 percent in 2026.
Economic momentum in Australia is expected to be soft. The economy is lacking a clear growth engine, with
the private sector clearly struggling against restrictive policy settings and consumers facing a tough outlook.
Growth is expected to have come in at 1.2 percent in 2024, with just moderate pick-up expected for 2025 to
2.0 percent and 2.4 percent for 2026.
When compared to the June 2024 consensus forecast, the December 2024 forecast is relatively stable.
Global GDP is expected to increase by 2.5 percent in 2024 (compared to 2.4 percent assumed before) and is
expected to grow by 2.4 percent in 2025 (2.3 percent assumed before). With the energy crisis and pandemic
now further behind us, the consensus for economic activity in major markets is showing smaller deviations
over time despite economic and geopolitical uncertainty still being very prevalent.
Alternative scenarios and risks (*)
The baseline scenario assumes continued steady economic growth. However, a longer period of weakness,
due to even more concerning geopolitical tensions, persistent elevated inflation and trade tensions could
lead to a more protracted and deeper economic slowdown. As such, the balance of risks to the baseline
outlook is negative, and the alternative scenarios have a downward skew in line with the outcomes of Oxford
Economics\u2019 Global Risk Survey.
The downside scenario \u2013 though technical in nature \u2013 sees a recession in 2025 and 2026 for most countries.
Unemployment increases strongly in this scenario and house prices in most countries show outright falls.
The downside scenario captures the possible impact from escalating geopolitical tensions, increased trade
tensions and persistent elevated inflation.
The upside scenario \u2013 while equally technical in nature \u2013 reflects the possibility of a better economic out-turn
because of a substantial loosening of monetary policy, and policy stimulus in China.
Management adjustments applied this reporting period (*)
In times of volatility and uncertainty where portfolio quality and the economic environment are changing
rapidly, models alone may not be able to accurately predict losses. In these cases, management
adjustments can be applied to appropriately reflect ECL. Management adjustments can also be applied
where the impact of the updated macroeconomic scenarios is over- or under-estimated by the IFRS 9
models, as well as to reflect the impact of model redevelopment or recalibration and periodic model
assessment procedures that have not been incorporated in the IFRS 9 models yet.
ING has internal governance frameworks and controls in place to assess the appropriateness of all
management adjustments.

As the ING credit risk models generally assume that inflation and interest rate increase risks materialise via
other risk drivers, such as GDP and unemployment rates with a delay, an overlay approach was determined
in previous financial years to timely estimate the expected credit losses (ECL) related to reduced repayment
capacity and affordability for private individuals and business clients in the Retail Banking segment.
As inflationary stress has decreased since origination of the overlay approach and the limited observed
impact in both the Retail and the Wholesale Banking segment, no management adjustment is reported as at
31 December 2024, with exception of a management adjustment of \u20ac50 million for the Commercial Real
Estate portfolio (31 December 2023: \u20ac351 million in total). The \u20ac50 million management adjustment related
to the Commercial Real Estate portfolio is reported in Wholesale Banking (\u20ac33.5 million) and in Business
Banking in the Netherlands (\u20ac16.5 million) because the prevailing risks from increased levels of interest rates
and inflation still exist for this sector in these portfolios. This management adjustment is reflected in Stage 1
and Stage 2. Furthermore, in specific parts in the Retail Banking segment, that were previously included in
the inflation and interest rate increases overlay and where increased risked not yet captured in the credit
risk models are still observed, specific portfolio-based adjustments have been recognised.
As at 31 December 2024, the economic sector / portfolio based adjustments in Stage 2 of \u20ac38 million in total
included a management adjustment of \u20ac14 million for the increased expected credit risk in the Mortgage
and Consumer Lending portfolio in Spain due to payment holidays provided for customers with collateral or
activities in the areas impacted by the severe floods in the Valencia area in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Furthermore, adjustments have been taken in the Business Banking portfolio in Germany (\u20ac10 million) to
cover for the increased uncertainty in the German economy and to the Mortgage portfolio in Australia (\u20ac15
million) to cover for affordability risk from inflation and interest rate increases.
The economic sector adjustments as at 31 December 2023 of \u20ac36 million, fully related to Business Banking
clients that had benefited from government support programmes in the Netherlands during the Covid-19
pandemic. This adjustment was released in full in 2024 as the risk was considered to be no longer present in
the portfolio. The overall mortgage portfolio adjustment as at 31 December 2024 decreased to \u20ac112 million
(31 December 2023: \u20ac126 million). The management adjustment in Stage 2 for the risk segmentation model
that captures affordability, repayment and refinancing risk on performing mortgage customers with a bullet
loan in the Netherlands was decreased to \u20ac112 million (31 December 2023: \u20ac115 million). The mortgage
portfolio adjustment that related to the overvaluation of house prices was released in full in 2024 (31
December 2023: \u20ac11 million).
As of 31 December 2024, an adjustment of \u20ac29 million was introduced to cover for the impact of climate
transition risk in Wholesale Banking (\u20ac17 million) and in Business Banking (\u20ac12 million). Climate transition risk
is expected to lead to a structural change in credit risk, which means specific business activities will become
structurally riskier due to environmental policies, technological progress or changes in market sentiment and
preferences. The current IFRS 9 models do not capture this (novel) risk. The management adjustment to ECL
models for business clients was made to specifically cover for the medium- to long-term transition risk on
high greenhouse gas-emitting sectors and is reported in Stage 2.
Other post-model adjustments mainly relate to the impact of model redevelopment or recalibration and
periodic model assessment procedures that have not been incorporated in the ECL models yet. The impact
on total ECL can be positive or negative. These result from both regular model maintenance and ING\u2019s
multiyear programme to update ECL models. These adjustments will be removed once updates to the
specific models have been implemented. The change in balance compared to previous reporting date is due
to i) released PMAs because of model updates that have been implemented and ii) new PMAs recognised for
new redevelopments and recalibrations.
Analysis on sensitivity (*)
The table below presents the analysis on the sensitivity of key forward-looking macroeconomic inputs used
in the ECL collective-assessment modelling process and the probability weights applied to each of the three
scenarios. The countries included in the analysis are the most significant geographic regions in ING, and for
Wholesale Banking the US is the most significant in terms of both gross contribution to reportable ECL and
sensitivity of ECL to forward-looking macroeconomics. Accordingly, ING considers these portfolios to present
the most significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amount of financial assets
within the next financial year. ING also observes that, in general, the WB business is more sensitive to the
impact of forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios.
The purpose of the sensitivity analysis is to enable the reader to understand the extent of the impact from
the upside and downside scenario on model-based reportable ECL.
In the table below, the real GDP is presented in percentage year-on-year change, the unemployment in
percentage of total labour force and the house price index (HPI) in percentage year-on-year change.

\u00b9Excluding management adjustments.
When compared to the sensitivity analysis of 2023, the macroeconomic inputs are overall more favourable.
This is driven by an improved macroeconomic outlook, mainly because economies prove to be rather
resilient to increased interest rates, particularly in the US, as well as recovery in house prices in, among
others, the Netherlands.
On a total ING level, the unweighted ECL for all collective provisioned clients in the upside scenario was
\u20ac2,721 million, in the baseline scenario \u20ac2,949 million and in the downside scenario \u20ac3,533 million compared
to \u20ac3,020 million reportable collective provisions as at 31 December 2024 (excluding all management
adjustments). To perform the sensitivity analysis, a point in time reportable ECL is used as input, which
slightly deviates from the total Model ECL as reported below:

Criteria for identifying a significant increase in credit risk (SICR) (*)
All assets and off-balance-sheet items that are in scope of IFRS 9 impairment and which are subject to
collective ECL assessment are allocated a 12-month ECL if deemed to belong in Stage 1, or a lifetime ECL if
deemed to belong in Stages 2 or 3. An asset belongs in Stage 2 if it is considered to have experienced a
significant increase in credit risk (SICR) since initial origination or purchase.
The main determinant of SICR is a quantitative test, whereby the lifetime probability of default (PD) of an
asset at each reporting date is compared against its lifetime PD determined at the date of initial recognition.
If either a threshold for absolute change in lifetime PD or a threshold for relative change in lifetime PD is
reached, the item is considered to have experienced a SICR (for more details on absolute and relative
thresholds, see the following sections). Furthermore, any facility which shows an increase of 200 percent
between the PD at the date of initial recognition and the lifetime PD at the reporting date (i.e. threefold
increase in PD) must be classified as Stage 2. This is considered a backstop within the quantitative
assessment of SICR.
In Wholesale Banking, significant increase in lifetime PD is not considered plausible for assets of obligors with
a credit rating at the reporting date in the top range of investment grade. As of 2024, the assets of these
Wholesale Banking obligors are excluded from the assessment of significant increase in credit risk triggers.
For these obligors the qualitative significant increases in credit risk triggers remain applicable (see the
section below on Qualitative SICR triggers). These are for example the Watchlist and/ or forbearance triggers.
Finally, the 30 days past due backstop also remains applicable for the top range of investment grade
exposures to ensure significant increase in credit risk recognition.
Absolute lifetime PD threshold
The absolute threshold is a fixed value calibrated per portfolio/segment and provides a fixed threshold that, if
exceeded by the difference between lifetime PD at reporting date and lifetime PD at origination, triggers
Stage 2 classification. The absolute threshold is calibrated during model development.
Relative lifetime PD threshold
The relative threshold defines a relative increase of the lifetime PD beyond which a given facility is classified
in Stage 2 because of a significant increase in credit risk. The relative threshold is dependent on the individual
PD assigned to each facility at the moment of origination, and a scaling factor calibrated in the model
development phase.
Ultimately, the relative threshold provides a criterion to assess whether the ratio (i.e. increase) between
lifetime PD at reporting date and lifetime PD at origination date is deemed a significant increase in credit risk.
If the threshold is breached, SICR is identified and Stage 2 is assigned to the given facility.
The threshold for the relative change in lifetime PD is inversely correlated with the PD at origination; the
higher the PD at origination, the lower the threshold. The logic behind this is to allow facilities originated in
very favourable ratings to downgrade for longer without the need of a Stage 2 classification. In fact, it is
likely that such facilities will still be in favourable ratings even after a downgrade of a few notches. On the
contrary, facilities originated in already unfavourable ratings grades are riskier and even a single-notch
downgrade might represent a significant increase in credit risk and thus a tighter threshold will be in place.
Still, the relative threshold is relatively sensitive for investment-grade assets while the absolute threshold
primarily affects non-investment grade assets.
Average threshold ratio
In the table below the average increase in PD at origination needed to be classified in Stage 2 is reported,
taking into account the PD at origination of the facilities included in each combination of asset class and
rating quality. In terms of rating quality, assets are divided into 'investment grade' and 'non-investment
grade' facilities. Rating 18 and 19 are not included in the table, since facilities are not originated in these
ratings and they constitute a staging trigger of their own (i.e. if a facility is ever to reach rating 18 or 19 at
reporting date, it is classified in Stage 2). In the table, values are weighted by IFRS 9 exposure and shown for
both year-end 2023 and year-end 2024.
To represent the thresholds as a ratio (i.e. how much should the PD at origination increase in relative terms
to trigger Stage 2 classification) the absolute threshold is recalculated as a relative threshold for disclosure
purposes. Since breaching only relative or absolute threshold triggers Stage 2 classification, the minimum
between the relative and recalculated absolute threshold is taken as value of reference for each facility.

As it is apparent from the disclosures above, as per ING\u2019s methodology, the threshold is tighter the higher
the riskiness at origination of the assets, illustrated by the difference between the average threshold applied
to investment grade facilities and non-investment grade facilities.
Sensitivity of ECL to PD lifetime PD thresholds
The setting of PD threshold bands requires management judgement and is a key source of estimation
uncertainty. On Group level, the total model ECL on performing assets, which is the ECL collective-
assessment without taking management adjustments into account, was \u20ac1,328 million as at 31 December
2024 (31 December 2023: \u20ac1,412 million). To demonstrate the sensitivity of the ECL to these PD threshold
bands, hypothetically solely applying the upside scenario would result in total model ECL on performing
assets of \u20ac1,066 million and a decrease in the Stage 2 ratio by 0.5%-point, while solely applying the
downside scenario would result in total model ECL on performing assets of \u20ac1,911 million and an increase in
the Stage 2 ratio by 1.9%-point.
Qualitative SICR thresholds
It should be noted that the lifetime PD thresholds are not the only drivers of stage allocation as ING Group
also relies on a number of qualitative indicators to identify and assess SICR. An asset can also change stages
as a result of other triggers, such as having over 30 days arrears (used as a backstop), collective SICR
assessment, being on a watch list, being under intensive care management, having a substandard internal
rating or being forborne.
Market risk
Introduction (*)
Market risk is the risk that movements in market variables, such as interest rates, equity prices, foreign
exchange rates, credit spreads and real-estate prices negatively impact the bank\u2019s earnings, capital, market
value or liquidity position. Market risk either arises through positions in banking books or trading books.
The banking book positions are intended to be held for the long term (or until maturity) or for the purpose of
hedging other banking book positions. The trading book positions are typically held with the intention of
short-term trading or to hedge other positions in the trading book. Policies and processes are in place to
monitor the inclusion of positions in either the trading or banking book as well as to monitor the transfer of
risk between the trading and banking books.
The following sections elaborate on the various elements of the risk management framework for:
\u2022 Market risk in banking books;
\u2022 Market risk in trading books; and
\u2022 Market risk capital.
Market risk in banking books (*)
ING makes a distinction between the trading and banking (non-trading) books. Positions in banking books
originate from the market risks inherent in commercial products that are sold to clients, Group Treasury
exposures, and from the investment of our own funds (core capital). Both the commercial products and the
products used to hedge related market-risk exposures are intended to be held until maturity, or at least for
the long term.
Risk transfer (*)
Market risks in the banking book are managed via the risk transfer process. In this process the interest rate,
FX, funding and liquidity risks are transferred from the commercial books through matched funding or
replication to Group Treasury, where they are centrally managed. The scheme below presents the transfer
and management process of market risks in the banking books.
Risk measurement (*)
The main concepts and metrics used for measuring market risk in the banking book are described below per
risk type.
Interest rate risk in banking book (*)
Interest rate risk in the banking book is defined as the exposure of a bank\u2019s earnings, capital, and market
value to adverse movements in interest rates originated from positions in the banking book.
ING centralises interest rate risk management from commercial books (that capture the products sold to
clients) to globally managed interest rate risk books. This enables a clear demarcation between commercial
business results and results based on unhedged interest rate positions.
ING distinguishes between three types of activities that generate interest rate risk in the banking book:
\u2022 Investment of own funds.
\u2022 Commercial business.
\u2022 Group Treasury exposures including strategic interest rate positions.
Group Treasury is responsible for managing the investment of own funds (core capital). Capital is invested for
longer periods to contribute to stable earnings within the risk appetite boundaries set by ALCO Bank. The
main objective is to maximise the economic value of the capital investment book while having stable
earnings.
Commercial activities can result in linear interest rate risk due to different re-pricing properties of assets and
liabilities. Also, interest rate risk can arise from customer behaviour and/or convexity risk, depending on the
nature of the underlying product characteristics.
To determine the interest rate risk in particular products (like savings, mortgages) specific assumptions may
need to be made. Customer behaviour risk is defined as the potential future (value) loss due to deviations in
the actual behaviour of clients versus the modelled behaviour with respect to the embedded options in
commercial products. General sources of customer behaviour risk, among other things, include the state of
the economy, competition, changes in regulation, legislation and tax regime, developments in the housing
market and interest rate developments.
From an interest rate risk perspective, commercial activities can typically be divided into the following main
product types: savings and current accounts (funds entrusted), demand deposits, mortgages and loans.
Savings and demand deposits are generally invested in such a way that both the value is hedged and the
sensitivity of the margin to market interest rates is minimised. This is achieved by creating the investment
profile distributed from short term to long term, which dampens the immediate impact from changes in the
market rates as well as stabilises margin in the longer horizon. Interest rate risk is modelled based on the
stability of deposits and the pass-through rate. This takes account of different elements, such as pricing
strategies, volume developments and the level and shape of the yield curve.
Interest rate risk for mortgages arises due to prepayment or other embedded optionalities. In modelling this
risk, both interest-rate-dependent pre-payments and constant prepayments are considered. Next to a
dependence on interest rates, modelled prepayments may include other effects such as loan-to-value,
seasonality and the reset date of the loan. In addition, the interest sensitivity of embedded offered rate
options may be considered.\u00a0
Wholesale Banking loans typically do not experience interest-rate-dependent prepayment behaviour. These
portfolios are match-funded, taking the constant prepayment model into account, and typically do not
contain significant convexity risk. Wholesale Banking loans can have an all-in rate floor or a floor on a
reference rate.
Customer behaviour in relation to mortgages, loans, savings and demand deposits is modelled, based on
extensive analysis of historical data. However, the substantial change in the interest rate environment in
recent years makes the analysis more challenging than before and may increase model risk. Models are
backtested and updated when deemed necessary in an annual procedure. Model parameters and the
resulting risk measures are approved by (local) ALCO, and are closely monitored on a monthly basis.
Linear risk transfers take place from commercial business books to the treasury book (Group Treasury), if
necessary, by using estimations of customer behaviour. The originating commercial business is ultimately
responsible for estimating this customer behaviour, leaving convexity risk and (unexpected) customer
behaviour risk with the commercial business. Risk measurement and the risk transfer process take place at
least monthly. If deemed necessary, additional risk transfers can take place.
The commercial business manages the convexity risk that is the result of products that contain embedded
options, like mortgages. Here the convexity risk is defined as the optionality effects in the value due to
interest rate changes, excluding the first-order effects. In some cases, convexity risk is transferred from the
commercial books to treasury books using cap/floor contracts and swaptions.
In the following sections, the interest rate risk exposures in the banking books are presented. ING quantifies
risk measures from both earnings and value perspectives. Net interest income (NII)-at-Risk is used to provide
the earnings perspective and the net present value (NPV)-at-Risk figures provide the value perspective.
Please note that the NPV-at-Risk is measured under a direct interest rate shock. Hence no additional,
corrective hedges are included in the measure. The NII-at-Risk measure is measured for interest rate
movements over a period, whereby (assumed) corrective hedges are included in the risk metric.
Net interest income (NII) at Risk (*)
The NII-at-Risk measures the impact of changing interest rates on the forecasted net interest income (before
tax) of the banking book, excluding the impacts of credit spread sensitivity, fees and fair value impact. Future
projected balance sheet developments (dynamic plan) are included in this risk metric. NII-at-Risk provides
insight into the sensitivity of ING\u2019s NII under shocked interest rate scenarios against what is projected in a
base case scenario.
In its risk management, ING monitors the NII-at-Risk under a three-year time frame. Interest rates are
shocked during the first year of analysis through the gradual application of shock. The rate changes
considered encompass both upward and downward scenarios, as well as both parallel (equal movements
across the yield curve) and non-parallel scenarios.
The impact of changing interest rates on ING\u2019s NII is predominantly caused by the following factors:
\u2022 Change in returns of (re)investments of client deposits;
\u2022 Change in client deposit rates (mainly savings), (partially) tracking changes in market interest rates;
\u2022 Change in the amortisation profile of mortgages, due to an increase or decrease in expected
prepayments;
\u2022 Higher/lower returns of (re-)investments of capital investment;
\u2022 Open interest rate positions, leading to changes in return because of different market rates; and
\u2022 Assumed volume development of the balance sheet in line with ING\u2019s dynamic plan.
For projecting the change in client deposit rates, ING uses a client rate model that describes the relation
between market interest rates and client deposit rates. The model is calibrated under a range of interest rate
scenarios. Per scenario, the actual change in client deposit rates may deviate from this calibrated model. The
actual NII development of customer deposits may, indeed, differ from the provided scenarios, depending on,
among other things, actual interest rate and savings client rate evolution, as well as changes to ING\u2019s
balance sheet composition, such as net deposit growth and relative share of savings deposits and non-
remunerated current accounts.
The NII-at-Risk figures in the table below reflect a parallel, linear interest rate movement during a year
('ramped') under the assumption of balance sheet developments in line with ING\u2019s dynamic plan with a time
horizon of one year. The majority of the risk comes from fixed-rate positions, most notably non-
remunerated current accounts and variable-rate savings accounts.
The NII-at-Risk is mainly influenced by the difference in the sensitivity between client liabilities and client
assets and investments to rate changes. The primary factor of NII-at-Risk are the investments of current
accounts, while the investments of own funds have a marginal effect, as only a relatively small portion
needs to be (re)invested within a one-year period.

USD ramped (floored at -100bps) is at +/- 120bps in 1 year (2023: +/-110bps)
The change in NII under declining and upward interest rate scenarios may not be equal. This is due to
different expected reactions in prepayment behaviour of mortgages and different pricing developments of
commercial loans and deposits products (mainly savings). This is caused by embedded options, explicit or
implicit pricing floors and other (assumed) pricing factors.
The metrics mentioned above are internal metrics, which therefore deviate from the regulatory NII SOT
metrics.
Year-on-year variance analysis (*)
In 2024, in response to falling inflation, most central banks (including ECB and FED) began to ease their
monetary policy, executing series of rates cuts. ING applied a dynamic hedging process, by which interest
rate risk was transferred from the business to Group Treasury and subsequently hedged in the markets. The
impact of explicit and implicit floors on both rates of client assets and savings remains limited. Pre-existing
hedges, as executed by Group Treasury, were also adjusted continuously throughout the year to hedge any
interest rate risk coming from lower interest rates. Most of the year-on-year change in NII sensitivity is due
to enhancements in risk management framework in one of non-EUR locations. These enhancements are
aimed at mitigating sensitivity in a volatile rate environment and include increasing the granularity of risk
transferred positions and implementing limits to trigger an intra-month recalibration of the hedges.
Excluding model risk, the total NII-at-Risk remains relatively limited in comparison to ING\u2019s total interest
income.
Net present value (NPV) at Risk (*)
NPV-at-Risk measures the impact of changing interest rates on the value of the positions in the banking
book. The NPV-at-Risk is defined as the outcome of an instantaneous increase or decrease in interest rates
from applying currency-specific scenarios. The NPV-at-Risk asymmetry between the downward and upward
shock is mainly caused by convexity risk in the mortgage and savings portfolio.
The full value impact cannot be directly linked to the financial position or profit or loss account, as fair value
movements in banking books are not necessarily reported through the profit or loss account or through
other comprehensive income (OCI). The changes in value are expected to materialise over time in the profit
and loss account if interest rates develop according to forward rates throughout the remaining maturity of
the portfolio. The majority of the risk comes from the investments of own funds and from positions
exhibiting negative convexity due to embedded optionality (most notably variable rate savings and fixed
rate mortgages).
The metrics mentioned above are internal metrics, which therefore deviate from the regulatory EVE SOT
metrics.

Year-on-year variance analysis (*)
The overall NPV sensitivity increased considerably over last year. The worst-case scenario remains the
parallel up, while the shock used in calculation for main currencies (EUR and USD) increased from 110bps to
120bps on the back of increased volatility observed in the market during 2023. This increase partially
explains the observed higher sensitivity. The other important factor impacting end of 2024 utilisation is
convexity: with lower interest rates, the increase in convexity on mortgages and savings accounts was
observed, especially for EUR positions. Lastly, Group Treasury actively managed the position and executed
investments for capital in the anticipation of possible further rates decreases.
The impact of the benchmark rate reform (*)
In line with the recommendations of the Financial Stability Board, a fundamental review of important
interest rates benchmarks has been undertaken. Some interest rate benchmarks have been reformed, while
others have or will be replaced by risk-free rates and discontinued. USD LIBOR in its current form ceased on
30 June 2023, whereas the cessation of GBP, CHF, JPY, and EUR LIBOR rates occurred on 31 December 2021.
To support these changes, the financial sector has issued several guidance papers and other initiatives to
help phase the transition. In 2024, the benchmark rate reform of only one reference rate, to which the Group
has significant exposures as at 31 December 2024, was continuing (i.e. WIBOR). The WIBOR rate is expected
to be ceased and replaced by a risk-free rate (RFR) by 31 December 2027.
The Steering Committee of the National Working Group (NWG SC) appointed in connection with the WIBOR
benchmark reform the decision (published on 10 December 2024) on the selection of the proposed index
with the technical name 'WIRF \u2013' as the ultimate interest rate benchmark in Poland to replace the WIBOR
benchmark. On 24 January 2025, the Steering Committee of the National Working Group has selected target
name POLSTR (Polish Short Term Rate) for this index. The chosen index is calculated based on unsecured
deposits of Credit and Financial Institutions. Thus, the NWG SC has reviewed and modified its previous
decision to select WIRON as alternative RFR in Poland. The WIBOR rate is still expected to be ceased and
replaced by a new RFR (\"WIRF -\") by 31 December 2027.
Due to the discontinuation of WIBOR, ING, its customers, and in general those market participants with
exposure to such benchmark rates will be faced with a number of risks. These risks include legal, financial,
operational, reputational and conduct risk. The WIBOR rates are used in several of our lending and derivative
products, and hence a project team has been established to manage the transition. WIBOR transition is
especially important for our Polish subsidiary (ING Bank \u015al\u0105ski S.A.) with a significant amount of Polish zloty-
denominated assets and liabilities including derivatives that are continuously rebalanced to hedge the risk
exposures.
The tables below summarise the approximate gross exposures of ING that have yet to transition related to
USD LIBOR and WIBOR, excluding exposures expiring before the transition date 31 December 2027 for WIBOR.

As at 31 December 2024, Phase 1 reliefs are applicable to WIBOR indexed fair value and cash flow hedge
accounting relationships as there is uncertainty arising from the WIBOR reform with respect to the timing
and the amount of the underlying cash flows that the Group is exposed to. Therefore, for WIBOR financial
instruments designated in hedge accounting the applicable Phase 1 reliefs will continue to apply until the
relevant contract is modified. At that point in time, Phase 2 reliefs will become applicable. For these affected
fair value and cash flow hedge relationships, ING assumes that the WIBOR-based cash flows from the
hedging instrument and hedged item will remain unaffected.
The same assumption is used to assess the likelihood of occurrence of the forecast transactions that are
subject to cash flow hedges. The hedged cash flows in cash flow hedges directly impacted by the WIBOR
reform still meet the highly probable requirement, assuming the WIBOR benchmark on which the hedged
cash flows are based is not altered as a result of the reform.
The total gross notional amounts of hedging instruments that are used in the ING\u2019s hedge accounting
relationships for which the Phase 1 amendments to IAS 39 were applied are:

date beyond 31 December 2027. The notional amounts of the derivative hedging instruments provide a
close approximation of the extent of the risk exposure ING manages through these hedging relationships.
Credit spread risk in banking books (CSRBB) (*)
Credit spread risk is defined as risk driven by the changes of the market price for credit risk, for liquidity and
potentially other characteristics of credit-risky instruments, which is not captured by another existing
prudential framework such as IRRBB or by expected credit/(jump-to-) default risk. CSRBB framework is
implemented based on EBA Guidelines. Metrics used are NPV-at-Risk, NII-at-Risk and Market Value Changes-
at Risk and view the positions across different accounting treatments.
Credit spread risk is not part of the internal risk transfer towards Group Treasury and therefore remains in
the business unit it originated in. Group Treasury itself is also an important driver of credit spread risk via its
HQLA investment portfolio and issuance activities.
Risk appetite limits are set on a combination of metrics and accounting scopes and are cascaded to local
ALCOs depending on the type of limit and materiality. Metrics and limits are monitored and reported
monthly to ALCO Bank, local ALCOs and various stakeholders.
Foreign exchange (FX) risk in banking books (*)
FX exposures in banking books result from core banking business activities (business units doing business in
currencies other than their base currency), foreign currency investments in subsidiaries (including realised
net profit and loss), and strategic equity stakes in foreign currencies. The policy regarding these exposures is
briefly explained below.
Core banking business (*)
Every business unit hedges the FX risk resulting from core banking business activities into its base currency
to prevent volatility in profit and loss. Consequently, assets and liabilities are matched in terms of currency,
within certain friction limits.
FX translation (*)
ING\u2019s strategy is to protect the CET1 ratio against adverse impact from FX rate fluctuations, while limiting the
volatility in the profit and loss account due to this CET1 hedging and limiting the RWA impact under the
regulatory framework. Hedge accounting is applied to the largest extent possible. Taking this into account,
the CET1 ratio hedge can be achieved by deliberately taking foreign currency positions equal to certain
target positions, such that the CET1 capital and risk-weighted assets are equally sensitive in relative terms to
changing FX rates.
Risk profile \u2013 FX translation (*)
The following table presents the currency exposures in the banking books for the most important currencies
for the FX translation result. Positive figures indicate long positions in the respective currency. As a result of
the strategy to hedge the CET1 ratio an open structural FX exposure exists.
To measure the volatility of the CET1 ratio from FX rate fluctuations, different metrics are used, including the
CET1 Ratio-at-Risk. The impact is controlled via the Solvency and Financial Risk RAS.

Equity price risk in banking books (*)
ING maintains a portfolio with substantial equity exposure in its banking books.
Risk profile (*)
Equity price risk arises from the possibility that an equity security\u2019s price will fluctuate, affecting the values of
the equity security itself as well as other instruments whose values react similarly to the particular security,
a defined basket of securities, or a securities index. ING\u2019s equity exposure mainly consists of the investments
in associates and joint ventures of \u20ac1,679 million (2023: \u20ac1,509 million) and equity securities held at fair
value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) of \u20ac2,562 million (2023: \u20ac1,885 million). The value of
equity securities held at FVOCI is directly linked to equity security prices with increases/decreases being
recognised in the revaluation reserve. Investments in associates and joint ventures are measured in
accordance with the equity method of accounting, and the balance sheet value is therefore not directly
linked to equity security prices. The equity sensitivity is expressed as the equity position.
Year-on-year variance analysis (*)
In 2024, the revaluation reserve equity securities increased by \u20ac664 million from \u20ac1,152 million to \u20ac1,816
million mainly due to revaluation of the shares in Bank of Beijing with \u20ac652 million. In 2024, the equity
securities at fair value through OCI increased by \u20ac678 million.

Market risk in trading books (*)
Within the trading portfolios, the positions are maintained in the financial markets. These positions are often
a result of transactions with clients and may benefit from short-term price movements. In 2024, ING
continued its strategy of undertaking trading activities to develop its client-driven franchise and deliver a
differentiating experience by offering multiple market and trading products.
With respect to the trading portfolios, Trading Risk Management (TRM) focuses on the management of
market risks of Wholesale Banking (mainly Financial Markets) as this is the only business line within ING
where trading activities take place. Trading activities include facilitation of client business and market
making. TRM is responsible for the development and implementation of trading risk policies and risk
measurement methodologies, and for reporting and monitoring risk exposures against approved trading
limits. TRM also reviews trading mandates and global limits, and performs the gatekeeper role in the product
review process (PARP).
Risk measurement (*)
ING uses a comprehensive set of methodologies and techniques to measure market risk in trading books:
Value at Risk (VaR) and Stressed Value at Risk (SVaR), Incremental Risk Charge (IRC), and stress testing.
Systematic validation processes are in place to validate the accuracy and internal consistency of data and
parameters used for the internal models and modelling processes.
Value at Risk (*)
TRM uses the historical simulation VaR methodology (HVaR) as its primary risk measure. The HVaR for
market risk quantifies, with a one-sided confidence level of 99 percent, the maximum overnight loss that
could occur in the trading portfolio of ING due to changes in risk factors (e.g. interest rates, equity prices,
foreign exchange rates, credit spreads, implied volatilities) considering the positions remain unchanged for a
time period of one day.
Next to general market movements in these risk factors, HVaR also takes into account market data
movements for specific moves in, for example, the underlying issuer or securities. A single model which
diversifies general and specific risk is used. In general, a full revaluation approach is applied, while for a
limited number of linear trading positions and risk factors in commodity and equity risk classes a sensitivity-
based approach is applied. The potential impact of historical market movements on today\u2019s portfolio is
estimated, based on equally weighted observed market movements of the previous year (260 business
days). When simulating potential movements in risk factors, depending on the risk factor type, either an
absolute or a relative shift is used.
The data used in the computations is updated daily. ING uses HVaR with a one-day horizon for internal risk
measurement, management control, and backtesting, and HVaR with a 10-day horizon for determining
regulatory capital. To compute HVaR with a 10-day horizon, the one-day risk factor shifts are scaled by the
square root of 10 and then used as an input for the revaluation. The same model is used for all legal entities
within ING with market risk exposure in the trading portfolio.
Limitations (*)
HVaR has some limitations: it uses historical data to forecast future price behaviour, but future price
behaviour could differ substantially from past behaviour. Moreover, the use of a one-day holding period (or
10 days for regulatory capital calculations) assumes that all positions in the portfolio can be liquidated or
hedged in one day. In periods of illiquidity or market events, this assumption may not hold. Also, the use of a
99 percent confidence level means that HVaR does not take into account any losses that occur beyond this
confidence level.
Backtesting (*)
Backtesting is a technique for the ongoing monitoring of the plausibility of the HVaR model in use. Although
HVaR models estimate potential future trading results, estimates are based on historical market data. In a
backtest, the actual daily trading result (excluding fees and commissions) is compared with the one-day
HVaR.
In addition to using actual results for backtesting, ING also uses hypothetical results, which exclude the
effects of intraday trading, fees, and commissions. When an actual or a hypothetical loss exceeds the HVaR,
an \u2018outlier\u2019 occurs. Based on ING\u2019s one-sided confidence level of 99 percent, an outlier is expected once in
every 100 business days.
On an overall level in 2024, there was one outlier for hypothetical P&L and zero outliers for actual P&L. The
hypothetical outlier occurred in the third quarter of 2024, mainly due to higher interest rate and FX market
movements.
Stressed HVaR (*)
The stressed HVaR (SVaR) is intended to replicate the HVaR calculation that would be generated on the
bank\u2019s current portfolio with inputs calibrated to the historical data from a continuous 12-month period of
significant financial stress relevant to the bank\u2019s portfolio.
To calculate SVaR, ING uses the same model that is used for 1DHVaR, with a 10-day horizon. The data for the
historical stress period used currently includes the height of the credit crisis around the fall of Lehman
Brothers (2008-2009), and this choice is reviewed regularly. The historical data period is chosen so that it
gives the worst-scenario loss estimates for the current portfolio. The same SVaR model is used for
management purposes and for regulatory purposes. The same SVaR model is used for all legal entities within
ING with market risk exposure in the trading portfolio.
Incremental risk charge (*)
The incremental risk charge (IRC) for ING is an estimate of the default and migration risks for credit products
(excluding securitisations) in the trading book, over a one-year capital horizon, with a 99.9 percent
confidence level. Trading positions (excluding securitisations) of ING, which are subject to specific interest
rate risk included in the internal model approach for market risk regulatory capital, are in scope of the IRC
model. By model choice, equity is excluded from the model. For the calculation of IRC, ING performs a Monte
Carlo simulation based on a multi-factor t-copula. In the multi-factor IRC model the supervisory asset
correlations are no longer applicable and the calibration of the correlations is based on historical market
data. The rating change is simulated for all issuers over the different liquidity horizons (i.e. time required to
liquidate the position or hedge all significant risks) within one year. Movements across different rating
categories and probabilities of default are governed by a credit-rating transition matrix. An internal
transition matrix along with internal LGDs is used, to comply with the consistency requirement. The financial
impact is then determined for the simulated migration to default, or for the simulated migration to a
different rating category, based on LGD or credit spread changes, respectively.
The liquidity horizon has been set to the regulatory minimum of three months for all positions in scope. ING
reviews the liquidity horizons on a yearly basis, based on a structured assessment of the time it takes to
liquidate the positions in the trading portfolio.
Stress testing and event risk (*)
Stress testing is a valuable risk management tool. In addition to the bank-wide stress-test framework as
described in the stress-testing section, Trading Risk Management performs stress tests specific to the trading
book with various frequencies. The trading book stress tests evaluate the impact on the bank\u2019s trading book
under severe but plausible stress scenarios, using a full revaluation approach. The framework is based on
historical as well as hypothetical scenarios. The stress result is an estimate of the profit and loss caused by a
potential event and its worldwide impact for ING. The results of the stress tests are used for decision-making,
aimed at maintaining a financially healthy going-concern institution after a severe event occurs.
In stress scenarios, shocks are applied to prices (credit spreads, interest rates, equity, commodities, and FX
rates) and volatilities. Depending on the type of the stress test, additional scenario assumptions can be
made, for example on correlations, dividends, or recovery rates. The structural scenarios are defined to cover
market moves in various directions and capture different asset class correlations. Scenarios are calculated
using full revaluation approach. The worst scenarios are determined for each product line, business line and
super business line, and compared against limits
Sensitivities (*)
As part of the risk monitoring framework, TRM actively monitors the sensitivities of the trading portfolios.
Sensitivities measure the impact of movements in individual market risk factors (foreign exchange rates,
interest rates, credit spreads, equity and commodity prices) on profit and loss results of the trading positions
and portfolios.
The following tables show the five largest trading positions in terms of sensitivities to foreign exchange,
interest rate and credit spread risk factor movements. These largest exposures also reflect concentrations of
risk in FX risk per currency, interest rate risk per currency, and credit spread risk per country, rating and
sector. Due to the nature of the trading portfolios, positions in the portfolios can change significantly from
day to day, and sensitivities of the portfolios can change daily accordingly.

Funding and liquidity risk (*)
Introduction (*)
Funding and liquidity (F&L) risk is the risk that ING or one of its subsidiaries cannot meet their financial
obligations upon their maturity date at a reasonable cost and in a timely manner. ING incorporates funding
and liquidity risk management in its business strategy and has established a funding and liquidity risk
framework to manage these risks within pre-defined boundaries.
The following sections elaborate on the various elements of funding and liquidity risk:
\u2022 Funding and liquidity risk framework;
\u2022 Funding and liquidity risk management strategy and objectives;
\u2022 Funding and liquidity adequacy and risk appetite;
\u2022 Funding and liquidity risk indicators;
\u2022 Liquidity stress testing; and
\u2022 Contingency funding planning.
Funding and liquidity risk framework (*)
Macroeconomic and market environment are important considerations in ING\u2019s F&L framework. The
macroeconomic environment is comprised of various exogenous factors over which ING has no control, but
which may have a material impact on ING\u2019s F&L position. The main macroeconomic factors analysed on a
regular basis include:
\u2022 performance of global and local macroeconomic indicators, e.g. shifts in GDP, inflation rates,
unemployment rates, and public deficit/surplus;
\u2022 developments and risks arising from geopolitical tensions and trends;
\u2022 monetary policy with a focus on the alternative monetary measures employed by central banks in recent
years as a result of the global energy crisis and the recent period of high inflation; and
\u2022 regulatory requirements, e.g. understanding the changing regulatory landscape as well as the impact of
ING\u2019s actions on existing regulatory boundaries.
The strategic ambitions of ING, together with the design and execution of the funding plan, are assessed
under both current and projected market conditions. An emphasis is placed on understanding overall market
trends and developments, credit rating changes and peer comparisons.
The EB, MBB and staff departments from the CRO and CFO domains, as well as Group Treasury, have
oversight of, and are responsible for, managing funding and liquidity risks.
Funding and liquidity management strategy and objectives (*)
The main objective of ING\u2019s funding and liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient liquidity to fund
the commercial activities of ING both under normal and stressed market circumstances across various
locations, currencies and tenors.
ING\u2019s funding consists mainly of retail and corporate deposits contributing 53 percent and 22 percent of total
funding, respectively. These funding sources provide a (relatively) stable funding base. The remainder of the
required funding is attracted primarily through a combination of long-term and short-term professional
funding. Group Treasury manages the professional funding in line with the F&L risk appetite with the aim of
ensuring a sufficiently diversified and stable funding base.
Funding and liquidity adequacy and risk appetite (*)
ING identifies key drivers of short-term and future liquidity and funding needs on an ongoing basis through
the periodic risk-identification process. Taking into consideration the identified risk drivers, ING regularly
assesses its current and future liquidity adequacy and, if deemed necessary, takes action to further improve
ING\u2019s liquidity position and maintain sufficient counterbalancing capacity. A Liquidity Adequacy Statement is
formulated on a regular basis to substantiate and reflect the management view on the current funding and
liquidity position as well as the potential future challenges. The Liquidity Adequacy Statement is an
important part of ING\u2019s ILAAP process. Additionally, ING completes ad hoc funding and liquidity assessments
if deemed necessary. In 2024, ING focused on the implementation of activities which steered the LCR higher
and diversified the funding mix in order to ensure funding stability for the bank into the F&L risk appetite.
ING assesses its F&L adequacy through three lenses \u2013 stress, economic and normative:
\u2022 Through the stress lens, ING evaluates its ability to withstand periods of prolonged F&L stress for both
normative and economic requirements or limits under idiosyncratic, market-related, combined
idiosyncratic and market-related, and climate risk scenarios, which lead to customer deposit outflows,
deterioration of access to funding markets, and lower liquidity value of counterbalancing capacity.
\u2022 Through the economic lens, ING assesses the extent to which its customers, professional counterparties
and investors are comfortable to provide deposits and funding in the tenors, currencies and instruments
necessary to sustainably fund the business (intraday, short-term and long-term) in a going-concern
situation.
\u2022 Through the normative lens, ING ascertains that the bank is in the position to meet current and future
home and host regulatory requirements.
For each lens, ING has established a related set of risk appetite statements, which define ING\u2019s risk appetite,
commensurate with the principles of liquidity adequacy.
The F&L risk appetite statements are translated into metrics with appropriate boundaries and instruments
which are used to regularly measure and manage ING\u2019s funding and liquidity risk. The risk appetite with
respect to the stress lens aims to have sufficient counterbalancing capacity under various internally defined
stress scenarios. Regarding the economic perspective, an internally defined stable funding to loans (SFtL)
ratio and stable funding surplus (SFS) metric (supplemented by other metrics) is used to stimulate a
diversified funding base and to prevent overreliance on professional funding. Finally, the liquidity coverage
ratio (LCR) and the net stable funding ratio (NSFR) regulatory metrics are monitored in terms of both ING\u2019s
risk appetite and normative requirements.
Liquidity stress testing (*)
Funding and liquidity stress testing forms part of the overall F&L framework. It allows ING to examine the
effects of exceptional but plausible future events on ING\u2019s funding and liquidity position and provides insight
into which entities, business lines or portfolios are vulnerable to which types of risk drivers or scenarios.
The stress-testing framework encompasses the funding and liquidity risks of the consolidated balance sheet
of ING Group, including all entities, business lines as well as on- and off-balance sheet positions. The net
liquidity position (NLP) is the main stress-testing measure and is measured at different time buckets.
The stress-testing framework considers idiosyncratic, market-wide, combined (idiosyncratic and market-
wide) and climate-stress scenarios. The design of the framework is based on empirical evidence
supplemented by expert judgment. The framework can be extended to additional ad-hoc scenarios. For
example, it can be used as input for firm-wide stress testing and reverse stress testing.
Outcomes of the stress tests are considered in the key aspects of ING\u2019s F&L risk framework and F&L risk
management, including:
\u2022 Risk Appetite Framework (through risk appetite statements);
\u2022 Risk identification and assessment;
\u2022 Monitoring of the liquidity and funding position;
\u2022 Business actions (if needed);
\u2022 Contingency funding plan; and
\u2022 Early-warning indicators.
The funding and liquidity stress-testing framework is also subject to regular internal validation by model
validation.
In line with supervisory expectations, ING\u2019s liquidity position is stress tested on (at minimum) a monthly basis
using scenarios that form part of the F&L risk appetite statement. The results of all internal stress scenarios
are monitored and assessed on a monthly basis. In addition, ad hoc scenarios based on current economic
and market developments are run to determine their potential impacts on the funding and liquidity position
of ING. In 2024, this included stress-test scenarios assessing the impact of a shutdown of US short- and long-
term funding markets and FX markets. The internal stress scenarios and their corresponding results serve as
input in the decision on holding additional contingency measures.
Contingency funding planning (*)
ING\u2019s contingent F&L risks are addressed in its Contingency Capital and Funding Plan (CCFP).The objectives of
the CCFP include the following:
\u2022 Establishment of a monitoring framework to detect approaching contingent events as well as their
impact on ING\u2019s F&L position;
\u2022 Provision of a plan for responding to various and increasing levels of a bank\u2019s liquidity and capital shortfall
under adverse and stressed conditions;
\u2022 Designation of management responsibilities, crisis communication methods and channels, and reporting
requirements;
\u2022 Identification of contingent capital and liquidity sources that can be used under various and increasing
adverse as well as stressed circumstances; and
\u2022 Description of steps which should be taken to ensure that the bank\u2019s sources of capital and liquidity are
sufficient to fund scheduled operating requirements and meet the institution\u2019s commitments with
minimal costs and disruption.
The contingency funding measures are developed in conjunction with the ING Recovery Plan and are
reviewed and tested on a regular basis.

Contingent liabilities and commitments
Investment risk: The credit default and risk rating migration risk that is associated with ING\u2019s investments in bonds,
commercial paper, equities, securitisations and other similar publicly traded securities. This can be viewed as the
potential loss that ING may incur from holding a position in underlying securities whose issuer's credit quality
deteriorates or defaults.

Debt securities
Money market risk: This arises when ING places short-term deposits with a counterparty in order to manage excess
liquidity. In the event of a counterparty default, ING may lose the deposit placed.

Pre-settlement risk: This arises when a client defaults on a transaction before settlement and ING must replace the
contract by a trade with another counterparty at the then prevailing (possibly unfavourable) market price. This credit
risk category is associated with derivatives transactions (exchange-traded derivatives, over-the-counter (OTC)
derivatives and securities financing transactions).

Offsetting financial assets and liabilities
Settlement risk: This arises when there is an exchange of value (funds or instruments) and receipt from its counterparty
is not verified or expected until after ING has given irrevocable instructions to pay or has paid or delivered its side of the
trade. The risk is that ING delivers but does not receive delivery from its counterparty.

Credit risk appetite and concentration risk framework (*)
The credit risk appetite and concentration risk framework is designed to prevent undesired high levels of
credit risk and credit concentrations within various levels of the ING portfolio. It is derived from the concepts
of boundaries and instruments as described in the ING RAF.
Credit risk appetite is the maximum level of credit risk ING is willing to accept for growth and value creation.
The credit risk appetite is linked to the overall bank-wide RAF and is expressed in quantitative and qualitative
measures.
The credit risk appetite is set at different levels and dimensions within ING. The credit risk appetite framework
specifies the scope and focus of the credit risk which ING takes and the composition of the credit portfolio,
including its concentration and diversification objectives in relation to business lines, locations, sectors and
products. The credit risk appetite framework has also been extended to embed climate risk elements. The
climate risk elements within the credit risk appetite framework allow for more efficient steering of sector
concentrations from a climate risk perspective.
The credit concentration risk framework is composed of:
\u2022 Country risk concentration: Country risk is the risk that arises due to events in a specific country (or
group of countries). To manage the maximum country loss ING is willing to accept, boundaries are
approved by the SB. The estimated level is correlated to the risk rating assigned to a given country. Actual
country limits are set by means of country instruments, which are monitored monthly and updated,
when needed. For countries with elevated levels of geopolitical or severe economic cycle risk, monitoring
is performed on a more frequent basis with strict pipeline and exposure management.
\u2022 Single name and secondary risk concentration: ING has an established credit concentration risk
framework to identify, measure and monitor single name concentration including secondary risk. The
same concept of boundaries and instruments is applicable.
\u2022 Sector and product concentration risk are managed via the credit risk appetite framework.
Credit risk models (*)
Within ING, internal CRR-compliant models are used to determine probability of default (PD), exposure at
default (EAD) and loss given default (LGD) for regulatory and economic capital purposes. These models also
form the basis of ING\u2019s IFRS 9 loan loss provisioning (see \u2018IFRS 9 models\u2019 below).
There are two main types of PD, EAD and LGD models used throughout the bank:
\u2022 Statistical models are created where a large set of default or detailed loss data is available. They are
characterised by sufficient data points to facilitate meaningful statistical estimation of the model
parameters. The model parameters are estimated with statistical techniques based on the data set
available.
\u2022 Hybrid models are statistical models supplemented with knowledge and experience of experts from risk
management and front-office staff, literature from rating agencies, supervisors and academics. These
models are only used for \u2018low default portfolios\u2019, where limited historical defaults exist.
Credit risk rating process (*)
The majority of risk ratings are based on a risk rating (PD) model that complies with the minimum
requirements detailed in CRR/CRD, ECB Supervisory Rules and European Banking Authority (EBA) guidelines.
This concerns all borrower types and segments.
ING\u2019s PD rating models are based on a 1-22 internal risk rating scale (1 = highest rating; 22 = lowest rating)
referred to as the \u2018master scale\u2019, which roughly corresponds to the rating grades that are assigned by
external rating agencies, such as Standard & Poor\u2019s, Moody\u2019s and Fitch. For example, an ING rating of 1
corresponds to an S&P/Fitch rating of AAA and a Moody\u2019s rating of Aaa; an ING rating of 2 corresponds to an
S&P/Fitch rating of AA+ and a Moody\u2019s rating of Aa1, and so on.
The 22 internal risk rating grades are composed of the following categories:
\u2022 Investment grade (risk rating 1-10);
\u2022 Non-investment grade (risk rating 11-17);
\u2022 Performing Restructuring (risk rating 18-19); and
\u2022 Non-performing (risk rating 20-22).
The first three categories (1-19) are risk ratings for performing loans. Ratings are calculated in IT systems
with internally developed models, based on manually or automatically fed data, or for part of the non-
performing loans set by the global or regional credit restructuring department. Under certain conditions, the
outcome of a manually fed model can be challenged through a rating appeal process. For securitisation
portfolios, the external ratings of the tranche in which ING has invested are leading indicators.
Risk ratings assigned to clients are reviewed at least annually, with the performance of the underlying
models monitored regularly. Some of these models are global in nature, such as those for large corporates,
commercial banks, insurance companies, central governments, funds, fund managers, project finance and
leveraged companies. Other models are more regional or country-specific: there are PD models for small and
medium enterprises (SMEs) in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Poland as well as residential mortgage and
consumer loan models in the various retail markets.
Rating models for Retail clients are predominantly statistically driven and automated, such that ratings can
be updated on a monthly basis. Rating models for large corporates, institutions and banks include both
statistical characteristics and expert input, with the ratings being manually updated at least annually. More
frequent reviews (e.g. quarterly) are performed where considered necessary.
In line with evolving regulatory expectations on models and emerging industry practices, ING has embarked
on a multi-year redevelopment process of its credit risk models. This is also in line with ING\u2019s model
governance to ensure continuous improvement of models.
Credit risk portfolio (*)
ING\u2019s credit exposure is mainly related to lending to individuals (also referred to as consumer lending, all
Retail) and businesses (referred to as business lending, both in Retail and Wholesale), followed by
investments in bonds and securitised assets, and money market (Wholesale). Loans to individuals are mainly
mortgage loans secured by residential property. Loans (including guarantees issued) to businesses are often
collateralised, but may be unsecured based on the internal analysis of the borrower\u2019s creditworthiness.
Bonds in the investment portfolio are generally unsecured, but predominantly consist of bonds issued by
central governments and EU and/or OECD-based financial institutions. Secured bonds, such as mortgage-
backed securities and asset-backed securities are secured by the underlying diversified pool of assets
(commercial or residential mortgages, car loans and/or other assets) held by the securities issuer. For money
market, exposure is mainly deposits to central banks. The last major credit risk source involves pre-
settlement exposures which arise from trading activities, including derivatives, repurchase transactions and
securities lending/borrowing transactions. This is also commonly referred to as counterparty credit risk.
Overall portfolio (*)
During 2024, ING\u2019s portfolio size increased by \u20ac30.3 billion (3.2%) to \u20ac961.9 billion outstanding. Foreign
exchange rate changes had a positive impact on the portfolio growth, mainly in WB, increasing total
outstanding by \u20ac8.0 billion, driven by the appreciation of the US dollar against the euro. Retail banking
increased by \u20ac18.9 billion mainly due to underlying growth in residential mortgages.
Rating distribution (*)
Overall, the rating class distribution remained stable in 2024. The share of investment grade rating classes
increased from 76.8% to 78.1%, while the share of non-investment grade decreased from 21.2% to 19.9%.
Performing restructuring outstandings decreased from 0.7% to 0.6% of the total portfolio, whereas non-
performing loans increased from 1.3% to 1.4%.
With respect to the rating distribution within the business lines, in WB, investment grade increased to 83.7%
from 81.2%, while non-investment grade exposures decreased to 14.6% from 17.1% compared to 2023.
Performing restructuring assets decreased from 0.7% to 0.6% of total Wholesale Banking assets where non-
performing loans for WB increased from 1.0% to 1.2%. The non-performing loans (NPL) increase in
Wholesale Banking is mainly caused by Russian exposures as well as a few large NPLs that are unrelated in
terms of asset class, sector or geography.
For Retail Banking, investment grade increased to 73.3% from 73.0%, while non-investment grade exposures
decreased to 24.4% from 24.9% as compared to 2023. Performing restructuring increased to 0.7% from 0.6%
whereas NPL remained constant at 1.5% in 2024.
Industry (*)
The industry breakdown is presented in accordance with the NAICS definition. The increase of \u20ac30.3 billion in
total volume during 2024 was mainly due to the increase in Private Individuals (\u20ac18.4 billion), Non-Bank
Financial Institutions (\u20ac8.8 billion) and Commercial Banks (\u20ac5.2 billion). The share of Private Individuals
increased from 38.8% last year to 39.5%.

1 Based on credit risk measurement contained in lending, pre-settlement, money market and investment activities.
2 Based on the total amount of credit risk in the respective column using ING\u2019s internal credit risk measurement methodologies.
Economic sectors (industry) below 2% are not shown separately but grouped in Other.
3 Geographical areas are based on country of residence, except for Private Individuals, for which the geographical areas are based on
the primary country of risk.
Portfolio analysis per geographical area (*)
The portfolio analysis per geographical area re-emphasises the international distribution of ING\u2019s credit
portfolio. The Netherlands maintains the largest portfolio share in a single country with 21.9% (2023: 22.9%)
of the total amount, followed by Germany with 16.2% (2023: 16.6%) and Belgium with 12.7% (2023: 12.4%).
In terms of region, the majority of the portfolio balance remained in Europe with 80% (2023: 79%), followed
by Americas with 9.3% (2023: 8.7%) and Australia with 6.0% (2023: 5.9%). The top five countries within Rest
of Europe based on outstandings were Italy (\u20ac20.7 billion), Switzerland (\u20ac16.4 billion), Romania (\u20ac12.4 billion),
T\u00fcrkiye (\u20ac8.6 billion) and Ireland (\u20ac4.8 billion).
The main contributors for the overall increase in outstanding are Americas (+\u20ac7.9 billion), Belgium
(+\u20ac6.2 billion), Poland (+\u20ac2.8 billion) and France (+\u20ac2.8 billion).\u00a0
Private Individuals remained the largest composition of portfolio balances for the Netherlands at 58.3%
(2023: 54.6%), Belgium at 37.4% (2023: 38.5%), Germany at 68.8% (2023: 66.5%) and Australia at 66.1%
(2023: 65.6%). The decrease in Central Banks is mainly attributed to the Netherlands (\u20ac8.5 billion explaining
the decrease in WB Netherlands outstanding), Germany (\u20ac5.0 billion) and Asia (\u20ac4.1 billion).\u00a0
In individual countries, the total share of investment grade/non-investment grade remains substantial for
the Netherlands at 98.5% (2023: 98.6%), Germany at 98.9% (2023: 99.1%) and in Belgium 96.6% (2023:
96.6%).
In Europe, the increase in investment grade was mainly witnessed in Poland (+\u20ac4.3 billion), France
(+\u20ac3.2 billion), Spain (+\u20ac3.2 billion), Belgium (+\u20ac3.2 billion) and Luxembourg (+\u20ac3.2 billion). Non-investment
grade decreased in the Netherlands (-\u20ac2.7 billion), Poland (-\u20ac1.8 billion), Luxembourg (-\u20ac1.2 billion) and Spain
(-\u20ac1.0 billion).

Credit risk mitigation (*)
ING uses various techniques and instruments to mitigate the credit risk associated with an exposure and to
reduce the losses incurred subsequent to a default by a customer. The most common terminology used in
ING for credit risk protection is \u2018cover\u2019. While a cover may be an important mitigant of credit risk and an
alternative source of repayment, generally it is ING\u2019s practice to lend on the basis of the customer\u2019s
creditworthiness rather than exclusively relying on the value of the cover.
Cover forms (*)
Within ING, there are two distinct forms of covers. First, where the asset has been pledged to ING as
collateral or security, ING has the right to liquidate it should the customer be unable to fulfil its financial
obligation. As such, the proceeds can be applied towards full or partial compensation of the customer's
outstanding exposure. This may be tangible (such as cash, securities, receivables, inventory, plant and
machinery, and mortgages on real estate properties) or intangible (such as patents, trademarks, contract
rights and licences). Second, where there is a third-party obligation, indemnification or undertaking (either
by contract and/or by law), ING has the right to claim from that third party an amount if the customer fails
on its obligations. The most common examples are guarantees, such as parent guarantees, export credit
insurances or third-party pledged mortgages. Insurance or reinsurance covers, including comprehensive
private risk insurance (CPRI) may be recognised as guarantees and effectively function in an equivalent
manner. ING accepts credit risk insurance companies and export credit agencies (ECAs) as cover providers.
Cover valuation methodology (*)
General guidelines for cover valuation are established with the objective of ensuring consistent application
within ING. These also require that the value of the cover is monitored on a regular basis. Covers are revalued
periodically and whenever there is reason to believe that the market is subject to significant changes in
conditions. The frequency of monitoring and revaluation depends on the type of cover.
The valuation method also depends on the type of covers. For asset collateral, the valuation sources can be
the customer\u2019s balance sheet (e.g. inventory, machinery and equipment), nominal value (e.g. cash and
receivables), market value (e.g. securities and commodities), independent valuations (e.g. commercial real
estate) and market indices (e.g. residential real estate). For third-party obligations, the valuation is based on
the value that is attributed to the contract between ING and that third party.
Where collateral values are used in the calculation of Stage 3 individual loan loss provisions, haircuts may be
applied to the valuation in specific circumstances, to sufficiently include all relevant factors impacting future
cash flows. ING applies haircuts to the collateral values of real estate, shipping and aviation assets that are
used in the calculation of the loss-given-default in recovery scenarios. The haircut reflects the risks of
adverse price developments between the moment of valuation of an asset and the actual settlement/cash
receipt.
Cover values (*)
This section provides insight into the types of cover and the extent to which exposures benefit from collateral
or guarantees. The disclosure differentiates between risk categories (lending, investment, money market
and pre-settlement). The most relevant types of cover include mortgages, financial collateral (cash and
securities), guarantees and other covers (mainly pledges). ING obtains covers that are eligible for credit risk
mitigation under CRR/CRDIV, as well as covers that are not eligible. Collateral covering financial market
transactions is valued on a daily basis, and as such not included in the following tables. To mitigate the credit
risk arising from financial markets transactions, the bank enters into legal agreements governing the
exchange of financial collateral (high-quality government bonds and cash).
The cover values are presented for the total portfolio of ING, both the performing and non-performing
portfolio.

The above tables gives an overview of the collateralisation of ING\u2019s total portfolio. Excluding the pre-
settlement portfolio, 55.9% (2023: 55.0%) of ING\u2019s outstandings were fully collateralised in 2024. Since
investments traditionally do not require covers, the \u2018no covers\u2019 percentage in this portfolio is over 99%.
Consumer lending portfolio (*)
The consumer lending portfolio accounts for 39.4% (2023: 38.7%) of ING\u2019s total outstanding, primarily
consisting of residential mortgage loans and other consumer lending loans. As a result, most collateral
consists of mortgages. Mortgage values are collected in an internal central database and in most cases
external data is used to index the market value. A significant part of ING\u2019s residential mortgage portfolio is in
the Netherlands (34.6%), Germany (27.5%), Belgium including Luxembourg (12.8%) and Australia (10.8%).
Note that the large increase in Other covers and decrease in Financial Collateral is related to a
reclassification of certain cover types.
Business lending portfolio (*)
Business lending accounts for 38.3% (2023: 39.1%) of ING\u2019s total outstanding. Business lending presented in
this section does not include pre-settlement, investment and money market exposures.
Credit quality (*)
ING uses three distinct statuses to categorise the management of clients with (perceived) deteriorating
credit risk profiles. ING usually classifies a client first with a \u201cwatch list\u201d status when there are concerns of
any potential or material deterioration in credit risk profile that may affect the ability of the client to adhere
to its debt service obligations or to refinance its existing loans. Watch list status requires more than usual
attention, increased monitoring and quarterly reviews. Furthermore, ING makes use of Early Warning
Indicators (EWIs) in daily credit risk management processes in non-Retail portfolios which relate to a change
in (internal and/or external) circumstances or outlook of the specific Obligor, the sector or portfolio. Some
clients with a watch list or EWI status may develop into a performing restructuring status (performing loans
that hold a reasonable probability that ING will end up with a loss, if no specific action is taken) or a non-
performing status.
When there is increasing doubt as to the performance and the collectability of the client\u2019s contractual
obligations the loans are managed by Global Credit Restructuring (GCR) or by restructuring units in the
various regions and business units. The statuses and links with rating grades are illustrated in the table
below.

Past due obligations (*)
Retail Banking measures its portfolio in terms of payment arrears and determines on a monthly basis if there
are any significant changes in the level of arrears. This methodology is applicable to private individuals, as
well as business lending. An obligation is considered \u2018past due\u2019 if a payment of interest or principal is more
than one day late. ING aims to help its customers as soon as they are past due by reminding them of their
payment obligations. In its contact with customers, ING aims to solve the (potential) financial difficulties by
offering a range of measures (e.g. payment arrangements, restructuring). If the issues cannot be resolved,
for example because the customer is unable or unwilling to pay, the contract is sent to the recovery unit. The
facility is downgraded to risk rating 20 (non-performing) when the facility or obligor \u2013 depending on the level
at which the non-performing status is applied \u2013 is more than 90 days past due and to risk rating 21 or 22 in
case of an exit scenario.

The past due but performing consumer lending outstanding decreased by \u20ac44 million, due to a decrease in
1-30 days (-\u20ac64 million) which was partially offset by an increase in 31-60 (+\u20ac22 million). The largest
decrease was observed in Belgium (-\u20ac32 million) and Germany (-\u20ac22 million), mainly in the 1-30 days
bucket. The largest increase was seen in Rest of Europe (+\u20ac18 million).

Total past due but performing outstanding of business lending increased by \u20ac0.3 billion. Increase was
witnessed in the 1\u201330 days past due bucket (\u20ac1.4 billion) which was offset by the decrease observed in the
31-60 days (-\u20ac0.9 billion) and 61-90 days (-\u20ac0.2 billion) past due buckets. The largest increase was in the
Americas (\u20ac0.9 billion) while the largest decrease was in the United Kingdom (-\u20ac0.6 billion).
Forbearance (*)
Forbearance occurs when a client is unable to meet their financial commitments due to financial difficulties
they face or are about to face and ING grants concessions towards them. Forborne assets are assets in
respect of which forbearance measures have been granted.
Forbearance may enable clients experiencing financial difficulties to continue repaying their debt.
For business clients, ING mainly applies forbearance measures to support clients with fundamentally sound
business models that are experiencing temporary difficulties. The aim is to maximise the client\u2019s repayment
ability, thereby avoiding a default situation, or help the client to return to a performing situation.
For ING Retail units, clear criteria have been established to determine whether a client is eligible for the
forbearance process. Specific approval mandates are in place to approve the measures, as well as
procedures to manage, monitor and report the forbearance activities.
ING reviews the performance of forborne exposures at least quarterly, either on a case-by-case (Business) or
on a portfolio (Retail) basis.
All exposures are eligible for forbearance measures, i.e. both performing (risk ratings 1-19) and non-
performing (risk ratings 20-22) exposures. ING uses specific criteria to move forborne exposures from non-
performing to performing or to remove the forbearance statuses that are consistent with the corresponding
European Banking Authority (EBA) standards. An exposure is reported as forborne for a minimum of two
years. An additional one-year probation period is applied to forborne exposures that move from non-
performing back to performing.

Net decrease in WB is driven by the performing forborne exposures -\u20ac728 million. Non-performing forborne
assets increased by \u20ac599 million, mainly in Chemicals, Health & Pharmaceuticals and in Real Estate in line
with earlier mentioned NPL increases.
WB's forborne assets are mainly concentrated in real estate; food, beverages & personal care; natural
resources; chemicals, health & pharmaceuticals; and utilities. These five sectors accounted for 68.3% of the
total WB forborne outstandings.
Retail Banking (*)
As of 31 December 2024, Retail Banking forborne assets amounted to \u20ac6.9 billion (2023: \u20ac7.0 billion), which
represented 1.3% (2023: 1.4%) of the total RB portfolio. 26.7% of the forborne exposures were in Private
Individuals.\u00a0

The main concentration of forborne assets in a single country was in Belgium with 28.2% (2023: 30.6%) of
total Retail Banking forborne assets and 39.4% (2023: 45.4%) of the non-performing forborne assets,
followed by the Netherlands with 22.5% (2023: 21.1%) and Germany having 20.0% (2023: 18.6%) of the total
Retail forborne assets.
Non-performing loans (*)
ING has aligned the regulatory concept of non-performing with that of the definition of default. Hence,
borrowers are classified as non-performing when a default trigger occurs:
\u2022 ING believes the borrower is unlikely to pay. The borrower has evidenced significant financial difficulty, to
the extent that it will have a negative impact on the future cash flows of the financial asset. The following
events could be seen as indicators of financial difficulty:
\u2022 The borrower (or third party) has started insolvency proceedings;
\u2022 A group company/co-borrower has NPL status;
\u2022 Indication of fraud (affecting the company\u2019s ability to service its debt);
\u2022 There is doubt as to the borrower\u2019s ability to generate stable and sufficient cash flows to service its
debt; and
\u2022 Restructuring of debt.
\u2022 ING has granted concessions relating to the borrower\u2019s financial difficulty, the effect of which is a
reduction in expected future cash flows of the financial asset below current carrying amount.
\u2022 The obligor has failed in the payment of principal, interest or fees; the total past due amount is above the
materiality threshold and this remains the case for more than 90 consecutive days.
Further, WB has an individual name approach, using early warning indicators to signal possible future issues
in debt service.
The table below represents the breakdown of credit risk outstandings that have been classified as non-
performing by sector and business line.

In 2024, the NPL portfolio increased to \u20ac13.3 billion, an increase in Wholesale Banking (+\u20ac1.2 billion) together
with an increase in Retail Banking (+\u20ac0.5 billion). The increase in Wholesale Banking was mainly witnessed in
real estate; chemicals, health & pharmaceuticals; and in natural resources, partially offset by telecom. In
Retail Banking, the increase was concentrated in Private Individuals. The top three countries by NPL
outstanding are Belgium, the Netherlands and Poland.
Loan loss provisioning (*)
ING recognises loss allowances based on the expected credit loss (ECL) model of IFRS 9, which is designed to
be forward-looking. The IFRS 9 impairment requirements are applicable to on-balance-sheet financial assets
measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI), such as loans, debt
securities and lease receivables, as well as off-balance-sheet items such as undrawn loan commitments,
financial- and non-financial guarantees issued.
ING distinguishes between two types of calculation methods for credit loss allowances:
\u2022 Collective 12-month ECL (Stage 1) and collective lifetime ECL (Stage 2) for portfolios of financial
instruments, as well as collective lifetime ECL for credit-impaired exposures (Stage 3) below \u20ac1 million;
and
\u2022 Individual lifetime ECL for credit-impaired (Stage 3) financial instruments with exposures above \u20ac1 million.
IFRS 9 models (*)
ING\u2019s IFRS 9 models leverage on the internal rating-based (IRB) models (PD, LGD, EAD), which include certain
required conservatism. To include IFRS 9 requirements, such regulatory conservatism is removed from the
ECL parameters (PD, LGD and EAD). The IFRS 9 models apply two other types of adjustments to the IRB ECL
parameters: (i) to the economic outlook and (ii) for Stage 2 and Stage 3 assets only, to the lifetime horizon.
The IFRS 9 model parameters are estimated based on statistical techniques and supported by expert
judgement.
ING has aligned the definition of default for regulatory purposes with the definition of \u2018credit-impaired\u2019
financial assets under IFRS 9 (Stage 3). ING has also aligned its definition of default between IFRS 9 and the
regulatory technical standards (RTS) and EBA guidelines. More information can be found in section 1.5.6 of
the consolidated financial statements.
Climate and environmental risks in IFRS 9 models (*)
Climate risk drivers (physical and transition risks) can reduce the ability of businesses and households to fulfil
their obligations due on existing lending contracts. These may also lead to the depreciation/erosion of
collateral values, which would translate into higher credit losses and loan-to-value ratios in the lending
portfolio of ING.
Currently, it is not yet possible to fully incorporate climate risk separately into IFRS 9 ECL models given the
lack of sufficient empirical historical data and data limitations in the risk assessments on client level.
However, ING has taken next steps in 2024 to more explicitly cover for climate-risk drivers in loan loss
provisioning. A management adjustment to ECL models for business clients was introduced to specifically
cover for the medium- to long-term transition risk on high greenhouse gas-emitting sectors. For households,
particularly the mortgage book, next step in the development will be to apply differentiation in collateral
valuation based on EPC labels.
Additionally, where climate and environmental factors have impacted the economy in the recent past or
present, these impacts are implicitly embedded in ING\u2019s IFRS 9 ECL models through the projected
macroeconomic indicators (e.g. indirectly via GDP growth and unemployment rates). We note, however, that
our ECL models are primarily sensitive to the short-term economic outlook as we use a three-year time
horizon for macroeconomic outlook, after which a mean reversion approach is applied.
With regard to our evaluation of specific climate-related matters, particularly physical risk events that have
already occurred (e.g. floods, stranded assets etc.), the impact of such events is individually assessed in the
calculation of Stage 3 individual provisions, collective SICR or management adjustments to ECL models. For
example, we consider whether affected assets have suffered from a significant increase in credit risk (or are
credit impaired) and whether the ECL is appropriate. Furthermore as at 31 December 2024 we have reported
a management adjustment for the increased expected credit risk in the Mortgage and Consumer Lending
portfolio in Spain due to payment holidays provided for customers with collateral or activities in the Valencia
area impacted by the severe floods in the fourth quarter of 2024. For more, see \u2018Management adjustments
applied this reporting period\u2019.
Going forward, ING aims to continue to improve on climate risk data, which will enable us to further embed
climate risks into the IFRS 9 ECL models. For further details on ESG risk management, see \u2018ESG risk\u2019
Portfolio quality (*)
The table below describes the portfolio composition over the different IFRS 9 stages and rating classes. The
Stage 1 portfolio represents 91.1% (2023: 91.5%) of the total gross carrying amounts, mainly composed of
investment grade, while Stage 2 makes up 7.6% (2023: 7.4%) and Stage 3 makes up 1.3% (2023: 1.2%) of the
total gross carrying amounts, respectively.

1 Compared to the credit risk portfolio, the differences are mainly undrawn committed amounts (\u20ac156 billion; 2023: \u20ac151 billion) and other positions (\u20ac6 billion; 2023: \u20ac9 billion) not included in credit outstandings and non-IFRS 9 eligible assets (\u20ac75 billion; 2023: \u20ac67 billion), mainly
pre-settlement exposures) included in credit outstandings but not in the gross carrying amounts.
2 Stage 3 lifetime credit impaired provision includes \u20ac21 million (2023: \u20ac11 million) on purchased or originated credit impaired.
Changes in gross carrying amounts and loan loss provisions (*)
The table below provides a reconciliation by stage of the gross carrying amount and allowances for loans
and advances to banks and customers, including loan commitments and financial guarantees. The transfers
of financial instruments represent the impact of stage transfers upon the gross carrying/nominal amount
and associated allowance for ECL. This includes the net-remeasurement of ECL arising from stage transfers,
for example, moving from a 12-month (Stage 1) to a lifetime (Stage 2) ECL measurement basis.
The net-remeasurement line represents the changes in provisions for facilities that remain in the same
stage.
Please note the following comments with respect to the movements observed in the table below:
\u2022 Stage 3 gross carrying amount increased by \u20ac1.7 billion from \u20ac12.0 billion as at 31 December 2023 to
\u20ac13.7 billion as at 31 December 2024, mainly as a result of \u20ac4.8 billion net inflow into NPL (credit
impaired) in 2024 which is offset by \u20ac1.8 billion derecognitions and repayments and \u20ac1.3 billion write-offs
and disposals. Following the increase in carrying amount, Stage 3 provisions increased by \u20ac0.6 billion.
\u2022 Stage 2 gross carrying amounts increased by \u20ac4.4 billion from \u20ac75.5 billion as at 31 December 2023 to
\u20ac79.9 billion as at 31 December 2024, largely driven by \u20ac23.7 billion net transfers from Stage 1 into Stage
2, including the impact of changes in risk drivers (including updated macro-economic forecasts), model
redevelopments mainly for Wholesale Banking models and new Stage 2 overlays. This was offset by a
decrease of exposure by \u20ac16.2 billion due to derecognised financial assets (including sales), repayments
and \u20ac2.9 billion exposure moving to Stage 3. Stage 2 provisions decreased by \u20ac0.3 billion to \u20ac1.1 billion as
of 31 December 2024.

1 Stage 3 lifetime credit impaired provision includes \u20ac21 million (2023:\u20ac11 million) on purchased or originated credit impaired.
2 The addition to the loan provision (in the consolidated statement of profit or loss) amounts to \u20ac1,194 million (2023: \u20ac520 million) of which \u20ac1,170 million (2023: \u20ac483 million) related to IFRS 9 eligible financial assets, \u20ac9 million (2023: \u20ac-31 million) related to non-credit
replacement guarantees and \u20ac15 million (2023: \u20ac67 million) to modification gains and losses on restructured financial assets.

Macroeconomic scenarios and sensitivity analysis of key sources of estimation
uncertainty (*)
Methodology (*)
Our methodology in relation to the adoption and generation of macroeconomic scenarios is described in this
section. We continue to follow this methodology in generating our probability-weighted ECL, with
consideration of alternative scenarios and management adjustments supplementing this ECL where, in
management's opinion, the consensus forecast does not fully capture the extent of recent credit or
economic events. The macroeconomic scenarios are applicable to the whole ING portfolio in the scope of
IFRS 9 ECLs.
The IFRS 9 standard, with its inherent complexities and potential impact on the carrying amounts of our
assets and liabilities, represents a key source of estimation uncertainty. In particular, ING\u2019s reportable ECL
numbers are sensitive to the forward-looking macroeconomic forecasts used as model inputs, the
probability-weights applied to each of the three scenarios, and the criteria for identifying a significant
increase in credit risk. As such, these crucial components require consultation and management judgement,
and are subject to extensive governance.
Baseline scenario (*)
As a baseline for IFRS 9, ING has adopted a market-neutral view combining consensus forecasts for economic
variables (GDP, unemployment) with market forwards (for interest rates, exchange rates and oil prices). Input
from a leading third-party service provider is used to complement the consensus with consistent projections
for variables for which there are no consensus estimates available (most notably house prices and \u2013 for
some countries \u2013 unemployment), to generate alternative scenarios, to convert annual consensus
information to a quarterly frequency and to ensure general consistency of the scenarios. As the baseline
scenario is consistent with the consensus view, it can be considered as free from any bias.
The relevance and selection of macroeconomic variables is defined by the ECL models under credit risk
model governance. The scenarios are reviewed and challenged by two panels of ING experts. The first panel
consists of (economic) experts from Global Markets Research, risk and modelling, while the second panel
consists of relevant senior managers in ING.
Alternative scenarios and probability weights (*)
Two alternative scenarios are taken into account: an upside and a downside scenario. The alternative
scenarios have statistical characteristics as they are based on the forecast deviations of the leading third-
party service provider.
To understand the baseline level of uncertainty around any forecast, the leading third-party service provider
keeps track of all its deviations (so-called forecast errors) of the past 20 years. The distribution of forecast
errors for GDP, unemployment, house prices and share prices is applied to the baseline forecast creating a
broad range of alternative outcomes. In addition, to understand the balance of risks facing the economy in
an unbiased way, the leading third-party service provider runs a survey with respondents from around the
world and across a broad range of industries. In this survey, respondents put forward their views of key risks.
Following the survey results, the distribution of forecast errors (that is being used for determining the
scenarios) may be skewed.
For the downside scenario, ING has chosen the 90th percentile of that distribution because this corresponds
with the way risk management earnings-at-risk is defined within the Group. The upside scenario is
represented by the 10th percentile of the distribution. The applicable percentiles of the distribution imply a
20 percent probability for each alternative scenario. Consequently, the baseline scenario has a 60 percent
probability weighting. Please note that, given their technical nature, the downside and upside scenarios are
not based on an explicit specific narrative.
Macroeconomic scenarios applied (*)
The macroeconomic scenarios applied in the calculation of loan loss provisions are based on the consensus
forecasts.
Baseline assumptions (*)
The general picture that the consensus conveys is that global economic growth is diverging between major
blocs. US growth is expected to continue to outpace European markets, while China is expected to continue
on a declining growth trend, but still at higher rates than seen in advanced markets. Inflation is expected to
remain near target for most advanced economies, although it is set to remain above target for the United
States. With interest rates moderating, although some uncertainty about this path for the US exists at this
point, monetary conditions should turn more favourable for growth. For the housing market, continued price
growth is expected for almost all main markets.
The December 2024 consensus expects global output (as measured by the weighted average GDP growth
rate of ING\u2019s 25 main markets) to slow from 2.5 percent in 2024 to 2.4 percent in 2025. For 2026-2027,
economic growth is expected to come in at 2.4 percent and 2.3 percent respectively.\u00a0
The American economy continues to perform very well despite signs of a slowing labour market around the
summer of 2024. Inflation has come down to more benign levels, which has prompted the Federal Reserve to
lower interest rates. Still, inflation remains above the 2% target and the outlook for inflation has become
more uncertain. The US administration\u2019s economic plans are set to stimulate the economy for 2025, as
reflected in the increased expectations for 2025 GDP of consensus forecasters. The consensus expects the
growth rate of the US economy to slow from 2.7 percent in 2024 to 2.0 percent for both 2025 and 2026.
The eurozone economy has seen some growth return in 2024 after a long period of stagnation that started
during the energy crisis. Still, expectations for 2025 remain modest. The export environment continues to be
plagued by weak global demand and investments are stymied by high interest rates and weak
manufacturing performance. Expectations of a pickup in growth over the course of the year hang on
domestic drivers like a pickup in real wage growth and continued rate cuts from the ECB at the start of the
year. Consensus expects the eurozone to have grown by only 0.8 percent in 2024, before recovering slightly
to 1.0 percent and 1.2 percent in 2025 and 2026 respectively.
Elsewhere in Europe, the outlook is more upbeat. In Poland, domestic demand appears to remain the key
growth driver over the near-term forecast. Foremost, consumers remain willing to spend, encouraged by
elevated wage growth and a resilient labour market. The economy is expected to grow by 2.7 percent in
2024, picking up to 3.5 percent in 2025 and 3.8 percent in 2026. The consensus expectation for T\u00fcrkiye is to
see growth slow, which is being confirmed by weak incoming data. Consensus expects growth to slow from
3.1 percent in 2024 to 2.6 percent in 2025, in part due to soft demand from export orders. For 2026, a
recovery to 3.5 percent is expected. The Russian economy is expected to slow substantially in 2025 after a
strong 2024. Growth is expected to drop from 3.7 percent in 2024 to 1.6 percent in 2025 and 1.3 percent in
2026.
For China, economic underperformance continues as it still struggles with the impact of the real estate
correction and weak domestic demand. Large scale stimulus plans and a possible bottoming out of the real
estate market do help economic forecasts for the short-run, although medium term consensus continues to
be downbeat for the moment. For 2024, consensus expects 4.8 percent growth, down to 4.4 percent in 2025
and 4.1 percent in 2026.
Economic momentum in Australia is expected to be soft. The economy is lacking a clear growth engine, with
the private sector clearly struggling against restrictive policy settings and consumers facing a tough outlook.
Growth is expected to have come in at 1.2 percent in 2024, with just moderate pick-up expected for 2025 to
2.0 percent and 2.4 percent for 2026.
When compared to the June 2024 consensus forecast, the December 2024 forecast is relatively stable.
Global GDP is expected to increase by 2.5 percent in 2024 (compared to 2.4 percent assumed before) and is
expected to grow by 2.4 percent in 2025 (2.3 percent assumed before). With the energy crisis and pandemic
now further behind us, the consensus for economic activity in major markets is showing smaller deviations
over time despite economic and geopolitical uncertainty still being very prevalent.
Alternative scenarios and risks (*)
The baseline scenario assumes continued steady economic growth. However, a longer period of weakness,
due to even more concerning geopolitical tensions, persistent elevated inflation and trade tensions could
lead to a more protracted and deeper economic slowdown. As such, the balance of risks to the baseline
outlook is negative, and the alternative scenarios have a downward skew in line with the outcomes of Oxford
Economics\u2019 Global Risk Survey.
The downside scenario \u2013 though technical in nature \u2013 sees a recession in 2025 and 2026 for most countries.
Unemployment increases strongly in this scenario and house prices in most countries show outright falls.
The downside scenario captures the possible impact from escalating geopolitical tensions, increased trade
tensions and persistent elevated inflation.
The upside scenario \u2013 while equally technical in nature \u2013 reflects the possibility of a better economic out-turn
because of a substantial loosening of monetary policy, and policy stimulus in China.
Management adjustments applied this reporting period (*)
In times of volatility and uncertainty where portfolio quality and the economic environment are changing
rapidly, models alone may not be able to accurately predict losses. In these cases, management
adjustments can be applied to appropriately reflect ECL. Management adjustments can also be applied
where the impact of the updated macroeconomic scenarios is over- or under-estimated by the IFRS 9
models, as well as to reflect the impact of model redevelopment or recalibration and periodic model
assessment procedures that have not been incorporated in the IFRS 9 models yet.
ING has internal governance frameworks and controls in place to assess the appropriateness of all
management adjustments.

As the ING credit risk models generally assume that inflation and interest rate increase risks materialise via
other risk drivers, such as GDP and unemployment rates with a delay, an overlay approach was determined
in previous financial years to timely estimate the expected credit losses (ECL) related to reduced repayment
capacity and affordability for private individuals and business clients in the Retail Banking segment.
As inflationary stress has decreased since origination of the overlay approach and the limited observed
impact in both the Retail and the Wholesale Banking segment, no management adjustment is reported as at
31 December 2024, with exception of a management adjustment of \u20ac50 million for the Commercial Real
Estate portfolio (31 December 2023: \u20ac351 million in total). The \u20ac50 million management adjustment related
to the Commercial Real Estate portfolio is reported in Wholesale Banking (\u20ac33.5 million) and in Business
Banking in the Netherlands (\u20ac16.5 million) because the prevailing risks from increased levels of interest rates
and inflation still exist for this sector in these portfolios. This management adjustment is reflected in Stage 1
and Stage 2. Furthermore, in specific parts in the Retail Banking segment, that were previously included in
the inflation and interest rate increases overlay and where increased risked not yet captured in the credit
risk models are still observed, specific portfolio-based adjustments have been recognised.
As at 31 December 2024, the economic sector / portfolio based adjustments in Stage 2 of \u20ac38 million in total
included a management adjustment of \u20ac14 million for the increased expected credit risk in the Mortgage
and Consumer Lending portfolio in Spain due to payment holidays provided for customers with collateral or
activities in the areas impacted by the severe floods in the Valencia area in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Furthermore, adjustments have been taken in the Business Banking portfolio in Germany (\u20ac10 million) to
cover for the increased uncertainty in the German economy and to the Mortgage portfolio in Australia (\u20ac15
million) to cover for affordability risk from inflation and interest rate increases.
The economic sector adjustments as at 31 December 2023 of \u20ac36 million, fully related to Business Banking
clients that had benefited from government support programmes in the Netherlands during the Covid-19
pandemic. This adjustment was released in full in 2024 as the risk was considered to be no longer present in
the portfolio. The overall mortgage portfolio adjustment as at 31 December 2024 decreased to \u20ac112 million
(31 December 2023: \u20ac126 million). The management adjustment in Stage 2 for the risk segmentation model
that captures affordability, repayment and refinancing risk on performing mortgage customers with a bullet
loan in the Netherlands was decreased to \u20ac112 million (31 December 2023: \u20ac115 million). The mortgage
portfolio adjustment that related to the overvaluation of house prices was released in full in 2024 (31
December 2023: \u20ac11 million).
As of 31 December 2024, an adjustment of \u20ac29 million was introduced to cover for the impact of climate
transition risk in Wholesale Banking (\u20ac17 million) and in Business Banking (\u20ac12 million). Climate transition risk
is expected to lead to a structural change in credit risk, which means specific business activities will become
structurally riskier due to environmental policies, technological progress or changes in market sentiment and
preferences. The current IFRS 9 models do not capture this (novel) risk. The management adjustment to ECL
models for business clients was made to specifically cover for the medium- to long-term transition risk on
high greenhouse gas-emitting sectors and is reported in Stage 2.
Other post-model adjustments mainly relate to the impact of model redevelopment or recalibration and
periodic model assessment procedures that have not been incorporated in the ECL models yet. The impact
on total ECL can be positive or negative. These result from both regular model maintenance and ING\u2019s
multiyear programme to update ECL models. These adjustments will be removed once updates to the
specific models have been implemented. The change in balance compared to previous reporting date is due
to i) released PMAs because of model updates that have been implemented and ii) new PMAs recognised for
new redevelopments and recalibrations.
Analysis on sensitivity (*)
The table below presents the analysis on the sensitivity of key forward-looking macroeconomic inputs used
in the ECL collective-assessment modelling process and the probability weights applied to each of the three
scenarios. The countries included in the analysis are the most significant geographic regions in ING, and for
Wholesale Banking the US is the most significant in terms of both gross contribution to reportable ECL and
sensitivity of ECL to forward-looking macroeconomics. Accordingly, ING considers these portfolios to present
the most significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amount of financial assets
within the next financial year. ING also observes that, in general, the WB business is more sensitive to the
impact of forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios.
The purpose of the sensitivity analysis is to enable the reader to understand the extent of the impact from
the upside and downside scenario on model-based reportable ECL.
In the table below, the real GDP is presented in percentage year-on-year change, the unemployment in
percentage of total labour force and the house price index (HPI) in percentage year-on-year change.

\u00b9Excluding management adjustments.
When compared to the sensitivity analysis of 2023, the macroeconomic inputs are overall more favourable.
This is driven by an improved macroeconomic outlook, mainly because economies prove to be rather
resilient to increased interest rates, particularly in the US, as well as recovery in house prices in, among
others, the Netherlands.
On a total ING level, the unweighted ECL for all collective provisioned clients in the upside scenario was
\u20ac2,721 million, in the baseline scenario \u20ac2,949 million and in the downside scenario \u20ac3,533 million compared
to \u20ac3,020 million reportable collective provisions as at 31 December 2024 (excluding all management
adjustments). To perform the sensitivity analysis, a point in time reportable ECL is used as input, which
slightly deviates from the total Model ECL as reported below:

Criteria for identifying a significant increase in credit risk (SICR) (*)
All assets and off-balance-sheet items that are in scope of IFRS 9 impairment and which are subject to
collective ECL assessment are allocated a 12-month ECL if deemed to belong in Stage 1, or a lifetime ECL if
deemed to belong in Stages 2 or 3. An asset belongs in Stage 2 if it is considered to have experienced a
significant increase in credit risk (SICR) since initial origination or purchase.
The main determinant of SICR is a quantitative test, whereby the lifetime probability of default (PD) of an
asset at each reporting date is compared against its lifetime PD determined at the date of initial recognition.
If either a threshold for absolute change in lifetime PD or a threshold for relative change in lifetime PD is
reached, the item is considered to have experienced a SICR (for more details on absolute and relative
thresholds, see the following sections). Furthermore, any facility which shows an increase of 200 percent
between the PD at the date of initial recognition and the lifetime PD at the reporting date (i.e. threefold
increase in PD) must be classified as Stage 2. This is considered a backstop within the quantitative
assessment of SICR.
In Wholesale Banking, significant increase in lifetime PD is not considered plausible for assets of obligors with
a credit rating at the reporting date in the top range of investment grade. As of 2024, the assets of these
Wholesale Banking obligors are excluded from the assessment of significant increase in credit risk triggers.
For these obligors the qualitative significant increases in credit risk triggers remain applicable (see the
section below on Qualitative SICR triggers). These are for example the Watchlist and/ or forbearance triggers.
Finally, the 30 days past due backstop also remains applicable for the top range of investment grade
exposures to ensure significant increase in credit risk recognition.
Absolute lifetime PD threshold
The absolute threshold is a fixed value calibrated per portfolio/segment and provides a fixed threshold that, if
exceeded by the difference between lifetime PD at reporting date and lifetime PD at origination, triggers
Stage 2 classification. The absolute threshold is calibrated during model development.
Relative lifetime PD threshold
The relative threshold defines a relative increase of the lifetime PD beyond which a given facility is classified
in Stage 2 because of a significant increase in credit risk. The relative threshold is dependent on the individual
PD assigned to each facility at the moment of origination, and a scaling factor calibrated in the model
development phase.
Ultimately, the relative threshold provides a criterion to assess whether the ratio (i.e. increase) between
lifetime PD at reporting date and lifetime PD at origination date is deemed a significant increase in credit risk.
If the threshold is breached, SICR is identified and Stage 2 is assigned to the given facility.
The threshold for the relative change in lifetime PD is inversely correlated with the PD at origination; the
higher the PD at origination, the lower the threshold. The logic behind this is to allow facilities originated in
very favourable ratings to downgrade for longer without the need of a Stage 2 classification. In fact, it is
likely that such facilities will still be in favourable ratings even after a downgrade of a few notches. On the
contrary, facilities originated in already unfavourable ratings grades are riskier and even a single-notch
downgrade might represent a significant increase in credit risk and thus a tighter threshold will be in place.
Still, the relative threshold is relatively sensitive for investment-grade assets while the absolute threshold
primarily affects non-investment grade assets.
Average threshold ratio
In the table below the average increase in PD at origination needed to be classified in Stage 2 is reported,
taking into account the PD at origination of the facilities included in each combination of asset class and
rating quality. In terms of rating quality, assets are divided into 'investment grade' and 'non-investment
grade' facilities. Rating 18 and 19 are not included in the table, since facilities are not originated in these
ratings and they constitute a staging trigger of their own (i.e. if a facility is ever to reach rating 18 or 19 at
reporting date, it is classified in Stage 2). In the table, values are weighted by IFRS 9 exposure and shown for
both year-end 2023 and year-end 2024.
To represent the thresholds as a ratio (i.e. how much should the PD at origination increase in relative terms
to trigger Stage 2 classification) the absolute threshold is recalculated as a relative threshold for disclosure
purposes. Since breaching only relative or absolute threshold triggers Stage 2 classification, the minimum
between the relative and recalculated absolute threshold is taken as value of reference for each facility.

As it is apparent from the disclosures above, as per ING\u2019s methodology, the threshold is tighter the higher
the riskiness at origination of the assets, illustrated by the difference between the average threshold applied
to investment grade facilities and non-investment grade facilities.
Sensitivity of ECL to PD lifetime PD thresholds
The setting of PD threshold bands requires management judgement and is a key source of estimation
uncertainty. On Group level, the total model ECL on performing assets, which is the ECL collective-
assessment without taking management adjustments into account, was \u20ac1,328 million as at 31 December
2024 (31 December 2023: \u20ac1,412 million). To demonstrate the sensitivity of the ECL to these PD threshold
bands, hypothetically solely applying the upside scenario would result in total model ECL on performing
assets of \u20ac1,066 million and a decrease in the Stage 2 ratio by 0.5%-point, while solely applying the
downside scenario would result in total model ECL on performing assets of \u20ac1,911 million and an increase in
the Stage 2 ratio by 1.9%-point.
Qualitative SICR thresholds
It should be noted that the lifetime PD thresholds are not the only drivers of stage allocation as ING Group
also relies on a number of qualitative indicators to identify and assess SICR. An asset can also change stages
as a result of other triggers, such as having over 30 days arrears (used as a backstop), collective SICR
assessment, being on a watch list, being under intensive care management, having a substandard internal
rating or being forborne.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfCreditRiskExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:549300NYKK9MWM7GGW15", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "f-7": { "value": "
Loan loss provisioning (*)
ING recognises loss allowances based on the expected credit loss (ECL) model of IFRS 9, which is designed to
be forward-looking. The IFRS 9 impairment requirements are applicable to on-balance-sheet financial assets
measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI), such as loans, debt
securities and lease receivables, as well as off-balance-sheet items such as undrawn loan commitments,
financial- and non-financial guarantees issued.
ING distinguishes between two types of calculation methods for credit loss allowances:
\u2022 Collective 12-month ECL (Stage 1) and collective lifetime ECL (Stage 2) for portfolios of financial
instruments, as well as collective lifetime ECL for credit-impaired exposures (Stage 3) below \u20ac1 million;
and
\u2022 Individual lifetime ECL for credit-impaired (Stage 3) financial instruments with exposures above \u20ac1 million.
IFRS 9 models (*)
ING\u2019s IFRS 9 models leverage on the internal rating-based (IRB) models (PD, LGD, EAD), which include certain
required conservatism. To include IFRS 9 requirements, such regulatory conservatism is removed from the
ECL parameters (PD, LGD and EAD). The IFRS 9 models apply two other types of adjustments to the IRB ECL
parameters: (i) to the economic outlook and (ii) for Stage 2 and Stage 3 assets only, to the lifetime horizon.
The IFRS 9 model parameters are estimated based on statistical techniques and supported by expert
judgement.
ING has aligned the definition of default for regulatory purposes with the definition of \u2018credit-impaired\u2019
financial assets under IFRS 9 (Stage 3). ING has also aligned its definition of default between IFRS 9 and the
regulatory technical standards (RTS) and EBA guidelines. More information can be found in section 1.5.6 of
the consolidated financial statements.
Climate and environmental risks in IFRS 9 models (*)
Climate risk drivers (physical and transition risks) can reduce the ability of businesses and households to fulfil
their obligations due on existing lending contracts. These may also lead to the depreciation/erosion of
collateral values, which would translate into higher credit losses and loan-to-value ratios in the lending
portfolio of ING.
Currently, it is not yet possible to fully incorporate climate risk separately into IFRS 9 ECL models given the
lack of sufficient empirical historical data and data limitations in the risk assessments on client level.
However, ING has taken next steps in 2024 to more explicitly cover for climate-risk drivers in loan loss
provisioning. A management adjustment to ECL models for business clients was introduced to specifically
cover for the medium- to long-term transition risk on high greenhouse gas-emitting sectors. For households,
particularly the mortgage book, next step in the development will be to apply differentiation in collateral
valuation based on EPC labels.
Additionally, where climate and environmental factors have impacted the economy in the recent past or
present, these impacts are implicitly embedded in ING\u2019s IFRS 9 ECL models through the projected
macroeconomic indicators (e.g. indirectly via GDP growth and unemployment rates). We note, however, that
our ECL models are primarily sensitive to the short-term economic outlook as we use a three-year time
horizon for macroeconomic outlook, after which a mean reversion approach is applied.
With regard to our evaluation of specific climate-related matters, particularly physical risk events that have
already occurred (e.g. floods, stranded assets etc.), the impact of such events is individually assessed in the
calculation of Stage 3 individual provisions, collective SICR or management adjustments to ECL models. For
example, we consider whether affected assets have suffered from a significant increase in credit risk (or are
credit impaired) and whether the ECL is appropriate. Furthermore as at 31 December 2024 we have reported
a management adjustment for the increased expected credit risk in the Mortgage and Consumer Lending
portfolio in Spain due to payment holidays provided for customers with collateral or activities in the Valencia
area impacted by the severe floods in the fourth quarter of 2024. For more, see \u2018Management adjustments
applied this reporting period\u2019.
Going forward, ING aims to continue to improve on climate risk data, which will enable us to further embed
climate risks into the IFRS 9 ECL models. For further details on ESG risk management, see \u2018ESG risk\u2019
Portfolio quality (*)

1 Compared to the credit risk portfolio, the differences are mainly undrawn committed amounts (\u20ac156 billion; 2023: \u20ac151 billion) and other positions (\u20ac6 billion; 2023: \u20ac9 billion) not included in credit outstandings and non-IFRS 9 eligible assets (\u20ac75 billion; 2023: \u20ac67 billion), mainly
pre-settlement exposures) included in credit outstandings but not in the gross carrying amounts.
2 Stage 3 lifetime credit impaired provision includes \u20ac21 million (2023: \u20ac11 million) on purchased or originated credit impaired.
Changes in gross carrying amounts and loan loss provisions (*)
The table below provides a reconciliation by stage of the gross carrying amount and allowances for loans
and advances to banks and customers, including loan commitments and financial guarantees. The transfers
of financial instruments represent the impact of stage transfers upon the gross carrying/nominal amount
and associated allowance for ECL. This includes the net-remeasurement of ECL arising from stage transfers,
for example, moving from a 12-month (Stage 1) to a lifetime (Stage 2) ECL measurement basis.
The net-remeasurement line represents the changes in provisions for facilities that remain in the same
stage.
Please note the following comments with respect to the movements observed in the table below:
\u2022 Stage 3 gross carrying amount increased by \u20ac1.7 billion from \u20ac12.0 billion as at 31 December 2023 to
\u20ac13.7 billion as at 31 December 2024, mainly as a result of \u20ac4.8 billion net inflow into NPL (credit
impaired) in 2024 which is offset by \u20ac1.8 billion derecognitions and repayments and \u20ac1.3 billion write-offs
and disposals. Following the increase in carrying amount, Stage 3 provisions increased by \u20ac0.6 billion.
\u2022 Stage 2 gross carrying amounts increased by \u20ac4.4 billion from \u20ac75.5 billion as at 31 December 2023 to
\u20ac79.9 billion as at 31 December 2024, largely driven by \u20ac23.7 billion net transfers from Stage 1 into Stage
2, including the impact of changes in risk drivers (including updated macro-economic forecasts), model
redevelopments mainly for Wholesale Banking models and new Stage 2 overlays. This was offset by a
decrease of exposure by \u20ac16.2 billion due to derecognised financial assets (including sales), repayments
and \u20ac2.9 billion exposure moving to Stage 3. Stage 2 provisions decreased by \u20ac0.3 billion to \u20ac1.1 billion as
of 31 December 2024.

Macroeconomic scenarios and sensitivity analysis of key sources of estimation
uncertainty (*)
Methodology (*)
Our methodology in relation to the adoption and generation of macroeconomic scenarios is described in this
section. We continue to follow this methodology in generating our probability-weighted ECL, with
consideration of alternative scenarios and management adjustments supplementing this ECL where, in
management's opinion, the consensus forecast does not fully capture the extent of recent credit or
economic events. The macroeconomic scenarios are applicable to the whole ING portfolio in the scope of
IFRS 9 ECLs.
The IFRS 9 standard, with its inherent complexities and potential impact on the carrying amounts of our
assets and liabilities, represents a key source of estimation uncertainty. In particular, ING\u2019s reportable ECL
numbers are sensitive to the forward-looking macroeconomic forecasts used as model inputs, the
probability-weights applied to each of the three scenarios, and the criteria for identifying a significant
increase in credit risk. As such, these crucial components require consultation and management judgement,
and are subject to extensive governance.
Baseline scenario (*)
As a baseline for IFRS 9, ING has adopted a market-neutral view combining consensus forecasts for economic
variables (GDP, unemployment) with market forwards (for interest rates, exchange rates and oil prices). Input
from a leading third-party service provider is used to complement the consensus with consistent projections
for variables for which there are no consensus estimates available (most notably house prices and \u2013 for
some countries \u2013 unemployment), to generate alternative scenarios, to convert annual consensus
information to a quarterly frequency and to ensure general consistency of the scenarios. As the baseline
scenario is consistent with the consensus view, it can be considered as free from any bias.
The relevance and selection of macroeconomic variables is defined by the ECL models under credit risk
model governance. The scenarios are reviewed and challenged by two panels of ING experts. The first panel
consists of (economic) experts from Global Markets Research, risk and modelling, while the second panel
consists of relevant senior managers in ING.
Alternative scenarios and probability weights (*)
Two alternative scenarios are taken into account: an upside and a downside scenario. The alternative
scenarios have statistical characteristics as they are based on the forecast deviations of the leading third-
party service provider.
To understand the baseline level of uncertainty around any forecast, the leading third-party service provider
keeps track of all its deviations (so-called forecast errors) of the past 20 years. The distribution of forecast
errors for GDP, unemployment, house prices and share prices is applied to the baseline forecast creating a
broad range of alternative outcomes. In addition, to understand the balance of risks facing the economy in
an unbiased way, the leading third-party service provider runs a survey with respondents from around the
world and across a broad range of industries. In this survey, respondents put forward their views of key risks.
Following the survey results, the distribution of forecast errors (that is being used for determining the
scenarios) may be skewed.
For the downside scenario, ING has chosen the 90th percentile of that distribution because this corresponds
with the way risk management earnings-at-risk is defined within the Group. The upside scenario is
represented by the 10th percentile of the distribution. The applicable percentiles of the distribution imply a
20 percent probability for each alternative scenario. Consequently, the baseline scenario has a 60 percent
probability weighting. Please note that, given their technical nature, the downside and upside scenarios are
not based on an explicit specific narrative.
Macroeconomic scenarios applied (*)
The macroeconomic scenarios applied in the calculation of loan loss provisions are based on the consensus
forecasts.
Baseline assumptions (*)
The general picture that the consensus conveys is that global economic growth is diverging between major
blocs. US growth is expected to continue to outpace European markets, while China is expected to continue
on a declining growth trend, but still at higher rates than seen in advanced markets. Inflation is expected to
remain near target for most advanced economies, although it is set to remain above target for the United
States. With interest rates moderating, although some uncertainty about this path for the US exists at this
point, monetary conditions should turn more favourable for growth. For the housing market, continued price
growth is expected for almost all main markets.
The December 2024 consensus expects global output (as measured by the weighted average GDP growth
rate of ING\u2019s 25 main markets) to slow from 2.5 percent in 2024 to 2.4 percent in 2025. For 2026-2027,
economic growth is expected to come in at 2.4 percent and 2.3 percent respectively.\u00a0
The American economy continues to perform very well despite signs of a slowing labour market around the
summer of 2024. Inflation has come down to more benign levels, which has prompted the Federal Reserve to
lower interest rates. Still, inflation remains above the 2% target and the outlook for inflation has become
more uncertain. The US administration\u2019s economic plans are set to stimulate the economy for 2025, as
reflected in the increased expectations for 2025 GDP of consensus forecasters. The consensus expects the
growth rate of the US economy to slow from 2.7 percent in 2024 to 2.0 percent for both 2025 and 2026.
The eurozone economy has seen some growth return in 2024 after a long period of stagnation that started
during the energy crisis. Still, expectations for 2025 remain modest. The export environment continues to be
plagued by weak global demand and investments are stymied by high interest rates and weak
manufacturing performance. Expectations of a pickup in growth over the course of the year hang on
domestic drivers like a pickup in real wage growth and continued rate cuts from the ECB at the start of the
year. Consensus expects the eurozone to have grown by only 0.8 percent in 2024, before recovering slightly
to 1.0 percent and 1.2 percent in 2025 and 2026 respectively.
Elsewhere in Europe, the outlook is more upbeat. In Poland, domestic demand appears to remain the key
growth driver over the near-term forecast. Foremost, consumers remain willing to spend, encouraged by
elevated wage growth and a resilient labour market. The economy is expected to grow by 2.7 percent in
2024, picking up to 3.5 percent in 2025 and 3.8 percent in 2026. The consensus expectation for T\u00fcrkiye is to
see growth slow, which is being confirmed by weak incoming data. Consensus expects growth to slow from
3.1 percent in 2024 to 2.6 percent in 2025, in part due to soft demand from export orders. For 2026, a
recovery to 3.5 percent is expected. The Russian economy is expected to slow substantially in 2025 after a
strong 2024. Growth is expected to drop from 3.7 percent in 2024 to 1.6 percent in 2025 and 1.3 percent in
2026.
For China, economic underperformance continues as it still struggles with the impact of the real estate
correction and weak domestic demand. Large scale stimulus plans and a possible bottoming out of the real
estate market do help economic forecasts for the short-run, although medium term consensus continues to
be downbeat for the moment. For 2024, consensus expects 4.8 percent growth, down to 4.4 percent in 2025
and 4.1 percent in 2026.
Economic momentum in Australia is expected to be soft. The economy is lacking a clear growth engine, with
the private sector clearly struggling against restrictive policy settings and consumers facing a tough outlook.
Growth is expected to have come in at 1.2 percent in 2024, with just moderate pick-up expected for 2025 to
2.0 percent and 2.4 percent for 2026.
When compared to the June 2024 consensus forecast, the December 2024 forecast is relatively stable.
Global GDP is expected to increase by 2.5 percent in 2024 (compared to 2.4 percent assumed before) and is
expected to grow by 2.4 percent in 2025 (2.3 percent assumed before). With the energy crisis and pandemic
now further behind us, the consensus for economic activity in major markets is showing smaller deviations
over time despite economic and geopolitical uncertainty still being very prevalent.
Alternative scenarios and risks (*)
The baseline scenario assumes continued steady economic growth. However, a longer period of weakness,
due to even more concerning geopolitical tensions, persistent elevated inflation and trade tensions could
lead to a more protracted and deeper economic slowdown. As such, the balance of risks to the baseline
outlook is negative, and the alternative scenarios have a downward skew in line with the outcomes of Oxford
Economics\u2019 Global Risk Survey.
The downside scenario \u2013 though technical in nature \u2013 sees a recession in 2025 and 2026 for most countries.
Unemployment increases strongly in this scenario and house prices in most countries show outright falls.
The downside scenario captures the possible impact from escalating geopolitical tensions, increased trade
tensions and persistent elevated inflation.
The upside scenario \u2013 while equally technical in nature \u2013 reflects the possibility of a better economic out-turn
because of a substantial loosening of monetary policy, and policy stimulus in China.
Management adjustments applied this reporting period (*)
In times of volatility and uncertainty where portfolio quality and the economic environment are changing
rapidly, models alone may not be able to accurately predict losses. In these cases, management
adjustments can be applied to appropriately reflect ECL. Management adjustments can also be applied
where the impact of the updated macroeconomic scenarios is over- or under-estimated by the IFRS 9
models, as well as to reflect the impact of model redevelopment or recalibration and periodic model
assessment procedures that have not been incorporated in the IFRS 9 models yet.
ING has internal governance frameworks and controls in place to assess the appropriateness of all
management adjustments.

As the ING credit risk models generally assume that inflation and interest rate increase risks materialise via
other risk drivers, such as GDP and unemployment rates with a delay, an overlay approach was determined
in previous financial years to timely estimate the expected credit losses (ECL) related to reduced repayment
capacity and affordability for private individuals and business clients in the Retail Banking segment.
As inflationary stress has decreased since origination of the overlay approach and the limited observed
impact in both the Retail and the Wholesale Banking segment, no management adjustment is reported as at
31 December 2024, with exception of a management adjustment of \u20ac50 million for the Commercial Real
Estate portfolio (31 December 2023: \u20ac351 million in total). The \u20ac50 million management adjustment related
to the Commercial Real Estate portfolio is reported in Wholesale Banking (\u20ac33.5 million) and in Business
Banking in the Netherlands (\u20ac16.5 million) because the prevailing risks from increased levels of interest rates
and inflation still exist for this sector in these portfolios. This management adjustment is reflected in Stage 1
and Stage 2. Furthermore, in specific parts in the Retail Banking segment, that were previously included in
the inflation and interest rate increases overlay and where increased risked not yet captured in the credit
risk models are still observed, specific portfolio-based adjustments have been recognised.
As at 31 December 2024, the economic sector / portfolio based adjustments in Stage 2 of \u20ac38 million in total
included a management adjustment of \u20ac14 million for the increased expected credit risk in the Mortgage
and Consumer Lending portfolio in Spain due to payment holidays provided for customers with collateral or
activities in the areas impacted by the severe floods in the Valencia area in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Furthermore, adjustments have been taken in the Business Banking portfolio in Germany (\u20ac10 million) to
cover for the increased uncertainty in the German economy and to the Mortgage portfolio in Australia (\u20ac15
million) to cover for affordability risk from inflation and interest rate increases.
The economic sector adjustments as at 31 December 2023 of \u20ac36 million, fully related to Business Banking
clients that had benefited from government support programmes in the Netherlands during the Covid-19
pandemic. This adjustment was released in full in 2024 as the risk was considered to be no longer present in
the portfolio. The overall mortgage portfolio adjustment as at 31 December 2024 decreased to \u20ac112 million
(31 December 2023: \u20ac126 million). The management adjustment in Stage 2 for the risk segmentation model
that captures affordability, repayment and refinancing risk on performing mortgage customers with a bullet
loan in the Netherlands was decreased to \u20ac112 million (31 December 2023: \u20ac115 million). The mortgage
portfolio adjustment that related to the overvaluation of house prices was released in full in 2024 (31
December 2023: \u20ac11 million).
As of 31 December 2024, an adjustment of \u20ac29 million was introduced to cover for the impact of climate
transition risk in Wholesale Banking (\u20ac17 million) and in Business Banking (\u20ac12 million). Climate transition risk
is expected to lead to a structural change in credit risk, which means specific business activities will become
structurally riskier due to environmental policies, technological progress or changes in market sentiment and
preferences. The current IFRS 9 models do not capture this (novel) risk. The management adjustment to ECL
models for business clients was made to specifically cover for the medium- to long-term transition risk on
high greenhouse gas-emitting sectors and is reported in Stage 2.
Other post-model adjustments mainly relate to the impact of model redevelopment or recalibration and
periodic model assessment procedures that have not been incorporated in the ECL models yet. The impact
on total ECL can be positive or negative. These result from both regular model maintenance and ING\u2019s
multiyear programme to update ECL models. These adjustments will be removed once updates to the
specific models have been implemented. The change in balance compared to previous reporting date is due
to i) released PMAs because of model updates that have been implemented and ii) new PMAs recognised for
new redevelopments and recalibrations.
Analysis on sensitivity (*)
The table below presents the analysis on the sensitivity of key forward-looking macroeconomic inputs used
in the ECL collective-assessment modelling process and the probability weights applied to each of the three
scenarios. The countries included in the analysis are the most significant geographic regions in ING, and for
Wholesale Banking the US is the most significant in terms of both gross contribution to reportable ECL and
sensitivity of ECL to forward-looking macroeconomics. Accordingly, ING considers these portfolios to present
the most significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amount of financial assets
within the next financial year. ING also observes that, in general, the WB business is more sensitive to the
impact of forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios.
The purpose of the sensitivity analysis is to enable the reader to understand the extent of the impact from
the upside and downside scenario on model-based reportable ECL.
In the table below, the real GDP is presented in percentage year-on-year change, the unemployment in
percentage of total labour force and the house price index (HPI) in percentage year-on-year change.

\u00b9Excluding management adjustments.
When compared to the sensitivity analysis of 2023, the macroeconomic inputs are overall more favourable.
This is driven by an improved macroeconomic outlook, mainly because economies prove to be rather
resilient to increased interest rates, particularly in the US, as well as recovery in house prices in, among
others, the Netherlands.
On a total ING level, the unweighted ECL for all collective provisioned clients in the upside scenario was
\u20ac2,721 million, in the baseline scenario \u20ac2,949 million and in the downside scenario \u20ac3,533 million compared
to \u20ac3,020 million reportable collective provisions as at 31 December 2024 (excluding all management
adjustments). To perform the sensitivity analysis, a point in time reportable ECL is used as input, which
slightly deviates from the total Model ECL as reported below:

Criteria for identifying a significant increase in credit risk (SICR) (*)
All assets and off-balance-sheet items that are in scope of IFRS 9 impairment and which are subject to
collective ECL assessment are allocated a 12-month ECL if deemed to belong in Stage 1, or a lifetime ECL if
deemed to belong in Stages 2 or 3. An asset belongs in Stage 2 if it is considered to have experienced a
significant increase in credit risk (SICR) since initial origination or purchase.
The main determinant of SICR is a quantitative test, whereby the lifetime probability of default (PD) of an
asset at each reporting date is compared against its lifetime PD determined at the date of initial recognition.
If either a threshold for absolute change in lifetime PD or a threshold for relative change in lifetime PD is
reached, the item is considered to have experienced a SICR (for more details on absolute and relative
thresholds, see the following sections). Furthermore, any facility which shows an increase of 200 percent
between the PD at the date of initial recognition and the lifetime PD at the reporting date (i.e. threefold
increase in PD) must be classified as Stage 2. This is considered a backstop within the quantitative
assessment of SICR.
In Wholesale Banking, significant increase in lifetime PD is not considered plausible for assets of obligors with
a credit rating at the reporting date in the top range of investment grade. As of 2024, the assets of these
Wholesale Banking obligors are excluded from the assessment of significant increase in credit risk triggers.
For these obligors the qualitative significant increases in credit risk triggers remain applicable (see the
section below on Qualitative SICR triggers). These are for example the Watchlist and/ or forbearance triggers.
Finally, the 30 days past due backstop also remains applicable for the top range of investment grade
exposures to ensure significant increase in credit risk recognition.
Absolute lifetime PD threshold
The absolute threshold is a fixed value calibrated per portfolio/segment and provides a fixed threshold that, if
exceeded by the difference between lifetime PD at reporting date and lifetime PD at origination, triggers
Stage 2 classification. The absolute threshold is calibrated during model development.
Relative lifetime PD threshold
The relative threshold defines a relative increase of the lifetime PD beyond which a given facility is classified
in Stage 2 because of a significant increase in credit risk. The relative threshold is dependent on the individual
PD assigned to each facility at the moment of origination, and a scaling factor calibrated in the model
development phase.
Ultimately, the relative threshold provides a criterion to assess whether the ratio (i.e. increase) between
lifetime PD at reporting date and lifetime PD at origination date is deemed a significant increase in credit risk.
If the threshold is breached, SICR is identified and Stage 2 is assigned to the given facility.
The threshold for the relative change in lifetime PD is inversely correlated with the PD at origination; the
higher the PD at origination, the lower the threshold. The logic behind this is to allow facilities originated in
very favourable ratings to downgrade for longer without the need of a Stage 2 classification. In fact, it is
likely that such facilities will still be in favourable ratings even after a downgrade of a few notches. On the
contrary, facilities originated in already unfavourable ratings grades are riskier and even a single-notch
downgrade might represent a significant increase in credit risk and thus a tighter threshold will be in place.
Still, the relative threshold is relatively sensitive for investment-grade assets while the absolute threshold
primarily affects non-investment grade assets.
Average threshold ratio
In the table below the average increase in PD at origination needed to be classified in Stage 2 is reported,
taking into account the PD at origination of the facilities included in each combination of asset class and
rating quality. In terms of rating quality, assets are divided into 'investment grade' and 'non-investment
grade' facilities. Rating 18 and 19 are not included in the table, since facilities are not originated in these
ratings and they constitute a staging trigger of their own (i.e. if a facility is ever to reach rating 18 or 19 at
reporting date, it is classified in Stage 2). In the table, values are weighted by IFRS 9 exposure and shown for
both year-end 2023 and year-end 2024.
To represent the thresholds as a ratio (i.e. how much should the PD at origination increase in relative terms
to trigger Stage 2 classification) the absolute threshold is recalculated as a relative threshold for disclosure
purposes. Since breaching only relative or absolute threshold triggers Stage 2 classification, the minimum
between the relative and recalculated absolute threshold is taken as value of reference for each facility.

As it is apparent from the disclosures above, as per ING\u2019s methodology, the threshold is tighter the higher
the riskiness at origination of the assets, illustrated by the difference between the average threshold applied
to investment grade facilities and non-investment grade facilities.
Sensitivity of ECL to PD lifetime PD thresholds
The setting of PD threshold bands requires management judgement and is a key source of estimation
uncertainty. On Group level, the total model ECL on performing assets, which is the ECL collective-
assessment without taking management adjustments into account, was \u20ac1,328 million as at 31 December
2024 (31 December 2023: \u20ac1,412 million). To demonstrate the sensitivity of the ECL to these PD threshold
bands, hypothetically solely applying the upside scenario would result in total model ECL on performing
assets of \u20ac1,066 million and a decrease in the Stage 2 ratio by 0.5%-point, while solely applying the
downside scenario would result in total model ECL on performing assets of \u20ac1,911 million and an increase in
the Stage 2 ratio by 1.9%-point.
Qualitative SICR thresholds
It should be noted that the lifetime PD thresholds are not the only drivers of stage allocation as ING Group
also relies on a number of qualitative indicators to identify and assess SICR. An asset can also change stages
as a result of other triggers, such as having over 30 days arrears (used as a backstop), collective SICR
assessment, being on a watch list, being under intensive care management, having a substandard internal

Market risk
Introduction (*)
Market risk is the risk that movements in market variables, such as interest rates, equity prices, foreign
exchange rates, credit spreads and real-estate prices negatively impact the bank\u2019s earnings, capital, market
value or liquidity position. Market risk either arises through positions in banking books or trading books.
The banking book positions are intended to be held for the long term (or until maturity) or for the purpose of
hedging other banking book positions. The trading book positions are typically held with the intention of
short-term trading or to hedge other positions in the trading book. Policies and processes are in place to
monitor the inclusion of positions in either the trading or banking book as well as to monitor the transfer of
risk between the trading and banking books.
The following sections elaborate on the various elements of the risk management framework for:
\u2022 Market risk in banking books;
\u2022 Market risk in trading books; and
\u2022 Market risk capital.
Market risk in banking books (*)
ING makes a distinction between the trading and banking (non-trading) books. Positions in banking books
originate from the market risks inherent in commercial products that are sold to clients, Group Treasury
exposures, and from the investment of our own funds (core capital). Both the commercial products and the
products used to hedge related market-risk exposures are intended to be held until maturity, or at least for
the long term.
Risk transfer (*)
Market risks in the banking book are managed via the risk transfer process. In this process the interest rate,
FX, funding and liquidity risks are transferred from the commercial books through matched funding or
replication to Group Treasury, where they are centrally managed. The scheme below presents the transfer
and management process of market risks in the banking books.
Risk measurement (*)
The main concepts and metrics used for measuring market risk in the banking book are described below per
risk type.
Interest rate risk in banking book (*)
Interest rate risk in the banking book is defined as the exposure of a bank\u2019s earnings, capital, and market
value to adverse movements in interest rates originated from positions in the banking book.
ING centralises interest rate risk management from commercial books (that capture the products sold to
clients) to globally managed interest rate risk books. This enables a clear demarcation between commercial
business results and results based on unhedged interest rate positions.
ING distinguishes between three types of activities that generate interest rate risk in the banking book:
\u2022 Investment of own funds.
\u2022 Commercial business.
\u2022 Group Treasury exposures including strategic interest rate positions.
Group Treasury is responsible for managing the investment of own funds (core capital). Capital is invested for
longer periods to contribute to stable earnings within the risk appetite boundaries set by ALCO Bank. The
main objective is to maximise the economic value of the capital investment book while having stable
earnings.
Commercial activities can result in linear interest rate risk due to different re-pricing properties of assets and
liabilities. Also, interest rate risk can arise from customer behaviour and/or convexity risk, depending on the
nature of the underlying product characteristics.
To determine the interest rate risk in particular products (like savings, mortgages) specific assumptions may
need to be made. Customer behaviour risk is defined as the potential future (value) loss due to deviations in
the actual behaviour of clients versus the modelled behaviour with respect to the embedded options in
commercial products. General sources of customer behaviour risk, among other things, include the state of
the economy, competition, changes in regulation, legislation and tax regime, developments in the housing
market and interest rate developments.
From an interest rate risk perspective, commercial activities can typically be divided into the following main
product types: savings and current accounts (funds entrusted), demand deposits, mortgages and loans.
Savings and demand deposits are generally invested in such a way that both the value is hedged and the
sensitivity of the margin to market interest rates is minimised. This is achieved by creating the investment
profile distributed from short term to long term, which dampens the immediate impact from changes in the
market rates as well as stabilises margin in the longer horizon. Interest rate risk is modelled based on the
stability of deposits and the pass-through rate. This takes account of different elements, such as pricing
strategies, volume developments and the level and shape of the yield curve.
Interest rate risk for mortgages arises due to prepayment or other embedded optionalities. In modelling this
risk, both interest-rate-dependent pre-payments and constant prepayments are considered. Next to a
dependence on interest rates, modelled prepayments may include other effects such as loan-to-value,
seasonality and the reset date of the loan. In addition, the interest sensitivity of embedded offered rate
options may be considered.\u00a0
Wholesale Banking loans typically do not experience interest-rate-dependent prepayment behaviour. These
portfolios are match-funded, taking the constant prepayment model into account, and typically do not
contain significant convexity risk. Wholesale Banking loans can have an all-in rate floor or a floor on a
reference rate.
Customer behaviour in relation to mortgages, loans, savings and demand deposits is modelled, based on
extensive analysis of historical data. However, the substantial change in the interest rate environment in
recent years makes the analysis more challenging than before and may increase model risk. Models are
backtested and updated when deemed necessary in an annual procedure. Model parameters and the
resulting risk measures are approved by (local) ALCO, and are closely monitored on a monthly basis.
Linear risk transfers take place from commercial business books to the treasury book (Group Treasury), if
necessary, by using estimations of customer behaviour. The originating commercial business is ultimately
responsible for estimating this customer behaviour, leaving convexity risk and (unexpected) customer
behaviour risk with the commercial business. Risk measurement and the risk transfer process take place at
least monthly. If deemed necessary, additional risk transfers can take place.
The commercial business manages the convexity risk that is the result of products that contain embedded
options, like mortgages. Here the convexity risk is defined as the optionality effects in the value due to
interest rate changes, excluding the first-order effects. In some cases, convexity risk is transferred from the
commercial books to treasury books using cap/floor contracts and swaptions.
In the following sections, the interest rate risk exposures in the banking books are presented. ING quantifies
risk measures from both earnings and value perspectives. Net interest income (NII)-at-Risk is used to provide
the earnings perspective and the net present value (NPV)-at-Risk figures provide the value perspective.
Please note that the NPV-at-Risk is measured under a direct interest rate shock. Hence no additional,
corrective hedges are included in the measure. The NII-at-Risk measure is measured for interest rate
movements over a period, whereby (assumed) corrective hedges are included in the risk metric.
Net interest income (NII) at Risk (*)
The NII-at-Risk measures the impact of changing interest rates on the forecasted net interest income (before
tax) of the banking book, excluding the impacts of credit spread sensitivity, fees and fair value impact. Future
projected balance sheet developments (dynamic plan) are included in this risk metric. NII-at-Risk provides
insight into the sensitivity of ING\u2019s NII under shocked interest rate scenarios against what is projected in a
base case scenario.
In its risk management, ING monitors the NII-at-Risk under a three-year time frame. Interest rates are
shocked during the first year of analysis through the gradual application of shock. The rate changes
considered encompass both upward and downward scenarios, as well as both parallel (equal movements
across the yield curve) and non-parallel scenarios.
The impact of changing interest rates on ING\u2019s NII is predominantly caused by the following factors:
\u2022 Change in returns of (re)investments of client deposits;
\u2022 Change in client deposit rates (mainly savings), (partially) tracking changes in market interest rates;
\u2022 Change in the amortisation profile of mortgages, due to an increase or decrease in expected
prepayments;
\u2022 Higher/lower returns of (re-)investments of capital investment;
\u2022 Open interest rate positions, leading to changes in return because of different market rates; and
\u2022 Assumed volume development of the balance sheet in line with ING\u2019s dynamic plan.
For projecting the change in client deposit rates, ING uses a client rate model that describes the relation
between market interest rates and client deposit rates. The model is calibrated under a range of interest rate
scenarios. Per scenario, the actual change in client deposit rates may deviate from this calibrated model. The
actual NII development of customer deposits may, indeed, differ from the provided scenarios, depending on,
among other things, actual interest rate and savings client rate evolution, as well as changes to ING\u2019s
balance sheet composition, such as net deposit growth and relative share of savings deposits and non-
remunerated current accounts.
The NII-at-Risk figures in the table below reflect a parallel, linear interest rate movement during a year
('ramped') under the assumption of balance sheet developments in line with ING\u2019s dynamic plan with a time
horizon of one year. The majority of the risk comes from fixed-rate positions, most notably non-
remunerated current accounts and variable-rate savings accounts.
The NII-at-Risk is mainly influenced by the difference in the sensitivity between client liabilities and client
assets and investments to rate changes. The primary factor of NII-at-Risk are the investments of current
accounts, while the investments of own funds have a marginal effect, as only a relatively small portion
needs to be (re)invested within a one-year period.

USD ramped (floored at -100bps) is at +/- 120bps in 1 year (2023: +/-110bps)
The change in NII under declining and upward interest rate scenarios may not be equal. This is due to
different expected reactions in prepayment behaviour of mortgages and different pricing developments of
commercial loans and deposits products (mainly savings). This is caused by embedded options, explicit or
implicit pricing floors and other (assumed) pricing factors.
The metrics mentioned above are internal metrics, which therefore deviate from the regulatory NII SOT
metrics.
Year-on-year variance analysis (*)
In 2024, in response to falling inflation, most central banks (including ECB and FED) began to ease their
monetary policy, executing series of rates cuts. ING applied a dynamic hedging process, by which interest
rate risk was transferred from the business to Group Treasury and subsequently hedged in the markets. The
impact of explicit and implicit floors on both rates of client assets and savings remains limited. Pre-existing
hedges, as executed by Group Treasury, were also adjusted continuously throughout the year to hedge any
interest rate risk coming from lower interest rates. Most of the year-on-year change in NII sensitivity is due
to enhancements in risk management framework in one of non-EUR locations. These enhancements are
aimed at mitigating sensitivity in a volatile rate environment and include increasing the granularity of risk
transferred positions and implementing limits to trigger an intra-month recalibration of the hedges.
Excluding model risk, the total NII-at-Risk remains relatively limited in comparison to ING\u2019s total interest
income.
Net present value (NPV) at Risk (*)
NPV-at-Risk measures the impact of changing interest rates on the value of the positions in the banking
book. The NPV-at-Risk is defined as the outcome of an instantaneous increase or decrease in interest rates
from applying currency-specific scenarios. The NPV-at-Risk asymmetry between the downward and upward
shock is mainly caused by convexity risk in the mortgage and savings portfolio.
The full value impact cannot be directly linked to the financial position or profit or loss account, as fair value
movements in banking books are not necessarily reported through the profit or loss account or through
other comprehensive income (OCI). The changes in value are expected to materialise over time in the profit
and loss account if interest rates develop according to forward rates throughout the remaining maturity of
the portfolio. The majority of the risk comes from the investments of own funds and from positions
exhibiting negative convexity due to embedded optionality (most notably variable rate savings and fixed
rate mortgages).
The metrics mentioned above are internal metrics, which therefore deviate from the regulatory EVE SOT
metrics.

Year-on-year variance analysis (*)
The overall NPV sensitivity increased considerably over last year. The worst-case scenario remains the
parallel up, while the shock used in calculation for main currencies (EUR and USD) increased from 110bps to
120bps on the back of increased volatility observed in the market during 2023. This increase partially
explains the observed higher sensitivity. The other important factor impacting end of 2024 utilisation is
convexity: with lower interest rates, the increase in convexity on mortgages and savings accounts was
observed, especially for EUR positions. Lastly, Group Treasury actively managed the position and executed
investments for capital in the anticipation of possible further rates decreases.
The impact of the benchmark rate reform (*)
In line with the recommendations of the Financial Stability Board, a fundamental review of important
interest rates benchmarks has been undertaken. Some interest rate benchmarks have been reformed, while
others have or will be replaced by risk-free rates and discontinued. USD LIBOR in its current form ceased on
30 June 2023, whereas the cessation of GBP, CHF, JPY, and EUR LIBOR rates occurred on 31 December 2021.
To support these changes, the financial sector has issued several guidance papers and other initiatives to
help phase the transition. In 2024, the benchmark rate reform of only one reference rate, to which the Group
has significant exposures as at 31 December 2024, was continuing (i.e. WIBOR). The WIBOR rate is expected
to be ceased and replaced by a risk-free rate (RFR) by 31 December 2027.
The Steering Committee of the National Working Group (NWG SC) appointed in connection with the WIBOR
benchmark reform the decision (published on 10 December 2024) on the selection of the proposed index
with the technical name 'WIRF \u2013' as the ultimate interest rate benchmark in Poland to replace the WIBOR
benchmark. On 24 January 2025, the Steering Committee of the National Working Group has selected target
name POLSTR (Polish Short Term Rate) for this index. The chosen index is calculated based on unsecured
deposits of Credit and Financial Institutions. Thus, the NWG SC has reviewed and modified its previous
decision to select WIRON as alternative RFR in Poland. The WIBOR rate is still expected to be ceased and
replaced by a new RFR (\"WIRF -\") by 31 December 2027.
Due to the discontinuation of WIBOR, ING, its customers, and in general those market participants with
exposure to such benchmark rates will be faced with a number of risks. These risks include legal, financial,
operational, reputational and conduct risk. The WIBOR rates are used in several of our lending and derivative
products, and hence a project team has been established to manage the transition. WIBOR transition is
especially important for our Polish subsidiary (ING Bank \u015al\u0105ski S.A.) with a significant amount of Polish zloty-
denominated assets and liabilities including derivatives that are continuously rebalanced to hedge the risk
exposures.
The tables below summarise the approximate gross exposures of ING that have yet to transition related to
USD LIBOR and WIBOR, excluding exposures expiring before the transition date 31 December 2027 for WIBOR.

See sections 1.5.4 and 1.5.7 of Note 1 \u2018Basis of preparation and material accounting policy information\u2019 for
information on the Phase 1 and Phase 2 amendments.
As at 31 December 2024, Phase 1 reliefs are applicable to WIBOR indexed fair value and cash flow hedge
accounting relationships as there is uncertainty arising from the WIBOR reform with respect to the timing
and the amount of the underlying cash flows that the Group is exposed to. Therefore, for WIBOR financial
instruments designated in hedge accounting the applicable Phase 1 reliefs will continue to apply until the
relevant contract is modified. At that point in time, Phase 2 reliefs will become applicable. For these affected
fair value and cash flow hedge relationships, ING assumes that the WIBOR-based cash flows from the
hedging instrument and hedged item will remain unaffected.
The same assumption is used to assess the likelihood of occurrence of the forecast transactions that are
subject to cash flow hedges. The hedged cash flows in cash flow hedges directly impacted by the WIBOR
reform still meet the highly probable requirement, assuming the WIBOR benchmark on which the hedged
cash flows are based is not altered as a result of the reform.
The total gross notional amounts of hedging instruments that are used in the ING\u2019s hedge accounting
relationships for which the Phase 1 amendments to IAS 39 were applied are:

date beyond 31 December 2027. The notional amounts of the derivative hedging instruments provide a
close approximation of the extent of the risk exposure ING manages through these hedging relationships.
Credit spread risk in banking books (CSRBB) (*)
Credit spread risk is defined as risk driven by the changes of the market price for credit risk, for liquidity and
potentially other characteristics of credit-risky instruments, which is not captured by another existing
prudential framework such as IRRBB or by expected credit/(jump-to-) default risk. CSRBB framework is
implemented based on EBA Guidelines. Metrics used are NPV-at-Risk, NII-at-Risk and Market Value Changes-
at Risk and view the positions across different accounting treatments.
Credit spread risk is not part of the internal risk transfer towards Group Treasury and therefore remains in
the business unit it originated in. Group Treasury itself is also an important driver of credit spread risk via its
HQLA investment portfolio and issuance activities.
Risk appetite limits are set on a combination of metrics and accounting scopes and are cascaded to local
ALCOs depending on the type of limit and materiality. Metrics and limits are monitored and reported
monthly to ALCO Bank, local ALCOs and various stakeholders.
Foreign exchange (FX) risk in banking books (*)
FX exposures in banking books result from core banking business activities (business units doing business in
currencies other than their base currency), foreign currency investments in subsidiaries (including realised
net profit and loss), and strategic equity stakes in foreign currencies. The policy regarding these exposures is
briefly explained below.
Core banking business (*)
Every business unit hedges the FX risk resulting from core banking business activities into its base currency
to prevent volatility in profit and loss. Consequently, assets and liabilities are matched in terms of currency,
within certain friction limits.
FX translation (*)
ING\u2019s strategy is to protect the CET1 ratio against adverse impact from FX rate fluctuations, while limiting the
volatility in the profit and loss account due to this CET1 hedging and limiting the RWA impact under the
regulatory framework. Hedge accounting is applied to the largest extent possible. Taking this into account,
the CET1 ratio hedge can be achieved by deliberately taking foreign currency positions equal to certain
target positions, such that the CET1 capital and risk-weighted assets are equally sensitive in relative terms to
changing FX rates.
Risk profile \u2013 FX translation (*)
The following table presents the currency exposures in the banking books for the most important currencies
for the FX translation result. Positive figures indicate long positions in the respective currency. As a result of
the strategy to hedge the CET1 ratio an open structural FX exposure exists.
To measure the volatility of the CET1 ratio from FX rate fluctuations, different metrics are used, including the
CET1 Ratio-at-Risk. The impact is controlled via the Solvency and Financial Risk RAS.

Equity price risk in banking books (*)
ING maintains a portfolio with substantial equity exposure in its banking books.
Risk profile (*)
Equity price risk arises from the possibility that an equity security\u2019s price will fluctuate, affecting the values of
the equity security itself as well as other instruments whose values react similarly to the particular security,
a defined basket of securities, or a securities index. ING\u2019s equity exposure mainly consists of the investments
in associates and joint ventures of \u20ac1,679 million (2023: \u20ac1,509 million) and equity securities held at fair
value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) of \u20ac2,562 million (2023: \u20ac1,885 million). The value of
equity securities held at FVOCI is directly linked to equity security prices with increases/decreases being
recognised in the revaluation reserve. Investments in associates and joint ventures are measured in
accordance with the equity method of accounting, and the balance sheet value is therefore not directly
linked to equity security prices. The equity sensitivity is expressed as the equity position.
Year-on-year variance analysis (*)
In 2024, the revaluation reserve equity securities increased by \u20ac664 million from \u20ac1,152 million to \u20ac1,816
million mainly due to revaluation of the shares in Bank of Beijing with \u20ac652 million. In 2024, the equity
securities at fair value through OCI increased by \u20ac678 million.

Market risk in trading books (*)
Within the trading portfolios, the positions are maintained in the financial markets. These positions are often
a result of transactions with clients and may benefit from short-term price movements. In 2024, ING
continued its strategy of undertaking trading activities to develop its client-driven franchise and deliver a
differentiating experience by offering multiple market and trading products.
With respect to the trading portfolios, Trading Risk Management (TRM) focuses on the management of
market risks of Wholesale Banking (mainly Financial Markets) as this is the only business line within ING
where trading activities take place. Trading activities include facilitation of client business and market
making. TRM is responsible for the development and implementation of trading risk policies and risk
measurement methodologies, and for reporting and monitoring risk exposures against approved trading
limits. TRM also reviews trading mandates and global limits, and performs the gatekeeper role in the product
review process (PARP).
Risk measurement (*)
ING uses a comprehensive set of methodologies and techniques to measure market risk in trading books:
Value at Risk (VaR) and Stressed Value at Risk (SVaR), Incremental Risk Charge (IRC), and stress testing.
Systematic validation processes are in place to validate the accuracy and internal consistency of data and
parameters used for the internal models and modelling processes.
Value at Risk (*)
TRM uses the historical simulation VaR methodology (HVaR) as its primary risk measure. The HVaR for
market risk quantifies, with a one-sided confidence level of 99 percent, the maximum overnight loss that
could occur in the trading portfolio of ING due to changes in risk factors (e.g. interest rates, equity prices,
foreign exchange rates, credit spreads, implied volatilities) considering the positions remain unchanged for a
time period of one day.
Next to general market movements in these risk factors, HVaR also takes into account market data
movements for specific moves in, for example, the underlying issuer or securities. A single model which
diversifies general and specific risk is used. In general, a full revaluation approach is applied, while for a
limited number of linear trading positions and risk factors in commodity and equity risk classes a sensitivity-
based approach is applied. The potential impact of historical market movements on today\u2019s portfolio is
estimated, based on equally weighted observed market movements of the previous year (260 business
days). When simulating potential movements in risk factors, depending on the risk factor type, either an
absolute or a relative shift is used.
The data used in the computations is updated daily. ING uses HVaR with a one-day horizon for internal risk
measurement, management control, and backtesting, and HVaR with a 10-day horizon for determining
regulatory capital. To compute HVaR with a 10-day horizon, the one-day risk factor shifts are scaled by the
square root of 10 and then used as an input for the revaluation. The same model is used for all legal entities
within ING with market risk exposure in the trading portfolio.
Limitations (*)
HVaR has some limitations: it uses historical data to forecast future price behaviour, but future price
behaviour could differ substantially from past behaviour. Moreover, the use of a one-day holding period (or
10 days for regulatory capital calculations) assumes that all positions in the portfolio can be liquidated or
hedged in one day. In periods of illiquidity or market events, this assumption may not hold. Also, the use of a
99 percent confidence level means that HVaR does not take into account any losses that occur beyond this
confidence level.
Backtesting (*)
Backtesting is a technique for the ongoing monitoring of the plausibility of the HVaR model in use. Although
HVaR models estimate potential future trading results, estimates are based on historical market data. In a
backtest, the actual daily trading result (excluding fees and commissions) is compared with the one-day
HVaR.
In addition to using actual results for backtesting, ING also uses hypothetical results, which exclude the
effects of intraday trading, fees, and commissions. When an actual or a hypothetical loss exceeds the HVaR,
an \u2018outlier\u2019 occurs. Based on ING\u2019s one-sided confidence level of 99 percent, an outlier is expected once in
every 100 business days.
On an overall level in 2024, there was one outlier for hypothetical P&L and zero outliers for actual P&L. The
hypothetical outlier occurred in the third quarter of 2024, mainly due to higher interest rate and FX market
movements.
Stressed HVaR (*)
The stressed HVaR (SVaR) is intended to replicate the HVaR calculation that would be generated on the
bank\u2019s current portfolio with inputs calibrated to the historical data from a continuous 12-month period of
significant financial stress relevant to the bank\u2019s portfolio.
To calculate SVaR, ING uses the same model that is used for 1DHVaR, with a 10-day horizon. The data for the
historical stress period used currently includes the height of the credit crisis around the fall of Lehman
Brothers (2008-2009), and this choice is reviewed regularly. The historical data period is chosen so that it
gives the worst-scenario loss estimates for the current portfolio. The same SVaR model is used for
management purposes and for regulatory purposes. The same SVaR model is used for all legal entities within
ING with market risk exposure in the trading portfolio.
Incremental risk charge (*)
The incremental risk charge (IRC) for ING is an estimate of the default and migration risks for credit products
(excluding securitisations) in the trading book, over a one-year capital horizon, with a 99.9 percent
confidence level. Trading positions (excluding securitisations) of ING, which are subject to specific interest
rate risk included in the internal model approach for market risk regulatory capital, are in scope of the IRC
model. By model choice, equity is excluded from the model. For the calculation of IRC, ING performs a Monte
Carlo simulation based on a multi-factor t-copula. In the multi-factor IRC model the supervisory asset
correlations are no longer applicable and the calibration of the correlations is based on historical market
data. The rating change is simulated for all issuers over the different liquidity horizons (i.e. time required to
liquidate the position or hedge all significant risks) within one year. Movements across different rating
categories and probabilities of default are governed by a credit-rating transition matrix. An internal
transition matrix along with internal LGDs is used, to comply with the consistency requirement. The financial
impact is then determined for the simulated migration to default, or for the simulated migration to a
different rating category, based on LGD or credit spread changes, respectively.
The liquidity horizon has been set to the regulatory minimum of three months for all positions in scope. ING
reviews the liquidity horizons on a yearly basis, based on a structured assessment of the time it takes to
liquidate the positions in the trading portfolio.
Stress testing and event risk (*)
Stress testing is a valuable risk management tool. In addition to the bank-wide stress-test framework as
described in the stress-testing section, Trading Risk Management performs stress tests specific to the trading
book with various frequencies. The trading book stress tests evaluate the impact on the bank\u2019s trading book
under severe but plausible stress scenarios, using a full revaluation approach. The framework is based on
historical as well as hypothetical scenarios. The stress result is an estimate of the profit and loss caused by a
potential event and its worldwide impact for ING. The results of the stress tests are used for decision-making,
aimed at maintaining a financially healthy going-concern institution after a severe event occurs.
In stress scenarios, shocks are applied to prices (credit spreads, interest rates, equity, commodities, and FX
rates) and volatilities. Depending on the type of the stress test, additional scenario assumptions can be
made, for example on correlations, dividends, or recovery rates. The structural scenarios are defined to cover
market moves in various directions and capture different asset class correlations. Scenarios are calculated
using full revaluation approach. The worst scenarios are determined for each product line, business line and
super business line, and compared against limits
Sensitivities (*)
As part of the risk monitoring framework, TRM actively monitors the sensitivities of the trading portfolios.
Sensitivities measure the impact of movements in individual market risk factors (foreign exchange rates,
interest rates, credit spreads, equity and commodity prices) on profit and loss results of the trading positions
and portfolios.
The following tables show the five largest trading positions in terms of sensitivities to foreign exchange,
interest rate and credit spread risk factor movements. These largest exposures also reflect concentrations of
risk in FX risk per currency, interest rate risk per currency, and credit spread risk per country, rating and
sector. Due to the nature of the trading portfolios, positions in the portfolios can change significantly from
day to day, and sensitivities of the portfolios can change daily accordingly.

Funding and liquidity risk (*)
Introduction (*)
Funding and liquidity (F&L) risk is the risk that ING or one of its subsidiaries cannot meet their financial
obligations upon their maturity date at a reasonable cost and in a timely manner. ING incorporates funding
and liquidity risk management in its business strategy and has established a funding and liquidity risk
framework to manage these risks within pre-defined boundaries.
The following sections elaborate on the various elements of funding and liquidity risk:
\u2022 Funding and liquidity risk framework;
\u2022 Funding and liquidity risk management strategy and objectives;
\u2022 Funding and liquidity adequacy and risk appetite;
\u2022 Funding and liquidity risk indicators;
\u2022 Liquidity stress testing; and
\u2022 Contingency funding planning.
Funding and liquidity risk framework (*)
Macroeconomic and market environment are important considerations in ING\u2019s F&L framework. The
macroeconomic environment is comprised of various exogenous factors over which ING has no control, but
which may have a material impact on ING\u2019s F&L position. The main macroeconomic factors analysed on a
regular basis include:
\u2022 performance of global and local macroeconomic indicators, e.g. shifts in GDP, inflation rates,
unemployment rates, and public deficit/surplus;
\u2022 developments and risks arising from geopolitical tensions and trends;
\u2022 monetary policy with a focus on the alternative monetary measures employed by central banks in recent
years as a result of the global energy crisis and the recent period of high inflation; and
\u2022 regulatory requirements, e.g. understanding the changing regulatory landscape as well as the impact of
ING\u2019s actions on existing regulatory boundaries.
The strategic ambitions of ING, together with the design and execution of the funding plan, are assessed
under both current and projected market conditions. An emphasis is placed on understanding overall market
trends and developments, credit rating changes and peer comparisons.
The EB, MBB and staff departments from the CRO and CFO domains, as well as Group Treasury, have
oversight of, and are responsible for, managing funding and liquidity risks.
Funding and liquidity management strategy and objectives (*)
The main objective of ING\u2019s funding and liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient liquidity to fund
the commercial activities of ING both under normal and stressed market circumstances across various
locations, currencies and tenors.
ING\u2019s funding consists mainly of retail and corporate deposits contributing 53 percent and 22 percent of total
funding, respectively. These funding sources provide a (relatively) stable funding base. The remainder of the
required funding is attracted primarily through a combination of long-term and short-term professional
funding. Group Treasury manages the professional funding in line with the F&L risk appetite with the aim of
ensuring a sufficiently diversified and stable funding base.
Funding and liquidity adequacy and risk appetite (*)
ING identifies key drivers of short-term and future liquidity and funding needs on an ongoing basis through
the periodic risk-identification process. Taking into consideration the identified risk drivers, ING regularly
assesses its current and future liquidity adequacy and, if deemed necessary, takes action to further improve
ING\u2019s liquidity position and maintain sufficient counterbalancing capacity. A Liquidity Adequacy Statement is
formulated on a regular basis to substantiate and reflect the management view on the current funding and
liquidity position as well as the potential future challenges. The Liquidity Adequacy Statement is an
important part of ING\u2019s ILAAP process. Additionally, ING completes ad hoc funding and liquidity assessments
if deemed necessary. In 2024, ING focused on the implementation of activities which steered the LCR higher
and diversified the funding mix in order to ensure funding stability for the bank into the F&L risk appetite.
ING assesses its F&L adequacy through three lenses \u2013 stress, economic and normative:
\u2022 Through the stress lens, ING evaluates its ability to withstand periods of prolonged F&L stress for both
normative and economic requirements or limits under idiosyncratic, market-related, combined
idiosyncratic and market-related, and climate risk scenarios, which lead to customer deposit outflows,
deterioration of access to funding markets, and lower liquidity value of counterbalancing capacity.
\u2022 Through the economic lens, ING assesses the extent to which its customers, professional counterparties
and investors are comfortable to provide deposits and funding in the tenors, currencies and instruments
necessary to sustainably fund the business (intraday, short-term and long-term) in a going-concern
situation.
\u2022 Through the normative lens, ING ascertains that the bank is in the position to meet current and future
home and host regulatory requirements.
For each lens, ING has established a related set of risk appetite statements, which define ING\u2019s risk appetite,
commensurate with the principles of liquidity adequacy.
The F&L risk appetite statements are translated into metrics with appropriate boundaries and instruments
which are used to regularly measure and manage ING\u2019s funding and liquidity risk. The risk appetite with
respect to the stress lens aims to have sufficient counterbalancing capacity under various internally defined
stress scenarios. Regarding the economic perspective, an internally defined stable funding to loans (SFtL)
ratio and stable funding surplus (SFS) metric (supplemented by other metrics) is used to stimulate a
diversified funding base and to prevent overreliance on professional funding. Finally, the liquidity coverage
ratio (LCR) and the net stable funding ratio (NSFR) regulatory metrics are monitored in terms of both ING\u2019s
risk appetite and normative requirements.
Liquidity stress testing (*)
Funding and liquidity stress testing forms part of the overall F&L framework. It allows ING to examine the
effects of exceptional but plausible future events on ING\u2019s funding and liquidity position and provides insight
into which entities, business lines or portfolios are vulnerable to which types of risk drivers or scenarios.
The stress-testing framework encompasses the funding and liquidity risks of the consolidated balance sheet
of ING Group, including all entities, business lines as well as on- and off-balance sheet positions. The net
liquidity position (NLP) is the main stress-testing measure and is measured at different time buckets.
The stress-testing framework considers idiosyncratic, market-wide, combined (idiosyncratic and market-
wide) and climate-stress scenarios. The design of the framework is based on empirical evidence
supplemented by expert judgment. The framework can be extended to additional ad-hoc scenarios. For
example, it can be used as input for firm-wide stress testing and reverse stress testing.
Outcomes of the stress tests are considered in the key aspects of ING\u2019s F&L risk framework and F&L risk
management, including:
\u2022 Risk Appetite Framework (through risk appetite statements);
\u2022 Risk identification and assessment;
\u2022 Monitoring of the liquidity and funding position;
\u2022 Business actions (if needed);
\u2022 Contingency funding plan; and
\u2022 Early-warning indicators.
The funding and liquidity stress-testing framework is also subject to regular internal validation by model
validation.
In line with supervisory expectations, ING\u2019s liquidity position is stress tested on (at minimum) a monthly basis
using scenarios that form part of the F&L risk appetite statement. The results of all internal stress scenarios
are monitored and assessed on a monthly basis. In addition, ad hoc scenarios based on current economic
and market developments are run to determine their potential impacts on the funding and liquidity position
of ING. In 2024, this included stress-test scenarios assessing the impact of a shutdown of US short- and long-
term funding markets and FX markets. The internal stress scenarios and their corresponding results serve as
input in the decision on holding additional contingency measures.
Contingency funding planning (*)
ING\u2019s contingent F&L risks are addressed in its Contingency Capital and Funding Plan (CCFP).The objectives of
the CCFP include the following:
\u2022 Establishment of a monitoring framework to detect approaching contingent events as well as their
impact on ING\u2019s F&L position;
\u2022 Provision of a plan for responding to various and increasing levels of a bank\u2019s liquidity and capital shortfall
under adverse and stressed conditions;
\u2022 Designation of management responsibilities, crisis communication methods and channels, and reporting
requirements;
\u2022 Identification of contingent capital and liquidity sources that can be used under various and increasing
adverse as well as stressed circumstances; and
\u2022 Description of steps which should be taken to ensure that the bank\u2019s sources of capital and liquidity are
sufficient to fund scheduled operating requirements and meet the institution\u2019s commitments with
minimal costs and disruption.
The contingency funding measures are developed in conjunction with the ING Recovery Plan and are
reviewed and tested on a regular basis.

To improve transparency, reduce duplication, and present related information in one place, certain
disclosures of the nature and extent of risks related to financial instruments required by IFRS 7 \u2018Financial
instruments: Disclosures\u2019 are included in the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
These disclosures are an integral part of ING Group Consolidated financial statements and are indicated in
the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section by the symbol (*). Chapters, paragraphs, graphs or tables within the 'Risk
management' section that are indicated with this symbol in the respective headings or table header are
considered to be an integral part of the Consolidated financial statements.
1.3\u00a0 Changes to accounting policies and presentation
ING Group has consistently applied its accounting policies to all periods presented in these Consolidated
financial statements. In 2024, ING Group updated the presentation of the Consolidated statement of
changes in equity to simplify its structure and reduce duplication. Comparative figures have been updated
accordingly. Furthermore, presentation in 'Note 30 Segments' was updated to reflect the clarified
requirements for segment disclosures as issued by the IFRIC in an agenda decision issued in July 2024.
1.3.1\u00a0 Changes in IFRS effective in 2024
The following amendments to IFRS became effective in the current reporting period (and have been EU
endorsed) with no significant impact for ING Group:
\u2022 Amendments to IFRS 16 'Leases': Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (issued in September 2022).
\u2022 Amendments to IAS 1 \u2018Presentation of Financial Statements\u2019: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-
current (issued in January 2020) and Non-current liabilities with Covenants (issued in October 2022).
\u2022 Amendments to IAS 7 'Statement of Cash flows' and IFRS 7 'Financial Instruments: Disclosures': Supplier
Finance Arrangements (issued in May 2023).
1.3.2\u00a0 Upcoming changes in IFRS after 2024
ING Group has not early adopted any of the following Standards, interpretations or amendments that have
been issued but are not yet effective, and is assessing their potential impact on the Group.
Effective in 2025 (endorsed by the EU):
\u2022 Amendments to IAS 21 'The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates': Lack of Exchangeability
(issued in August 2023).
The implementation of the above amendments is expected to have no significant impact on ING Group's
Consolidated financial statements when they become effective.
Effective in 2026 (not yet endorsed by the EU):
\u2022 Amendments to IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments' and IFRS 7 'Financial Instruments: Disclosure': Classification
and Measurement of Financial Instruments (issued in May 2024).
\u2022 Amendments to IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments' and IFRS 7 'Financial Instruments: Disclosure': Contracts
Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity (issued in December 2024).
\u2022 Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards: Volume 11 (issued in July 2024).
Effective in 2027 (not yet endorsed by the EU):
\u2022 New Standard IFRS 18 'Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements' (issued in April 2024).
In addition, in May 2024, the IASB also issued a new accounting Standard IFRS 19 'Subsidiaries without Public
Accountability: Disclosures'. However, it is not applicable for the consolidated financial statements of ING
Group.
1.4\u00a0 Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements in the
process of applying its accounting policies and to use estimates and assumptions. The estimates and
assumptions affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities and the amounts of the contingent
assets and contingent liabilities at the balance sheet date, as well as reported income and expenses for the
year. The actual outcome may differ from these estimates. The process of setting assumptions is subject to
internal control procedures and approvals.
ING Group has identified areas that require management to make significant judgements and use critical
accounting estimates and assumptions based on the information and financial data that may or may not
change in future periods. These areas are:
\u2022 Loan loss provisions (financial assets) (refer to Note 1.5.6 \u2018Impairment of financial assets');
\u2022 The determination of the fair values of financial assets and liabilities (refer to Note 1.5.3 for \u2018Fair values of
financial assets and liabilities\u2019);
\u2022 Investment in associate - assessment of additional impairment losses or reversal of previous impairment
losses (refer to Note 1.10 \u2018Investments in associates and joint ventures); and
\u2022 Provisions (refer to Note 1.15 \u2018Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets\u2019).
In March 2024 ING repaid the final EUR 6 billion of its Targeted Longer-Term Refinancing Operations (TLTRO)
III participation. As a result, accounting for TLTRO is no longer\u00a0 an area of significant judgement in 2024, while
it was as such in 2023 and 2022.
1.5\u00a0 Financial instruments
ING Group applies IFRS 9 \u2018Financial Instruments\u2019 to the recognition, classification and measurement, and
derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities and the impairment of financial assets. ING Group
applies the requirements of IAS 39 \u2018Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement\u2019 for hedge
accounting purposes.
1.5.1\u00a0 Recognition and derecognition of financial instruments
Recognition of financial assets
Financial assets are recognised in the balance sheet when ING Group becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument. For a regular way purchase or sale of a financial asset, trade date and
settlement date accounting is applied, depending on the classification of the financial asset.
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have
expired or where ING Group has transferred the rights to receive the cash flows from the financial asset or
assumed an obligation to pass on the cash flows and has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards
of the asset. If ING Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of
a financial asset, it derecognises the financial asset if it no longer has control over the asset. The difference
between the carrying amount of a financial asset that has been derecognised and the consideration
received is recognised in profit or loss.
Recognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are recognised on the date that the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions
of the instrument.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or
expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished and
the consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss.
1.5.2\u00a0 Classification and measurement of financial instruments
Financial assets
ING Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
\u2022 those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI, or through profit or loss); and
\u2022 those to be measured at amortised cost (AC).
At initial recognition, ING Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial
asset not at FVPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL) are expensed in the
statement of profit or loss.
Financial assets \u2013 Debt instruments
The classification depends on the entity\u2019s business model for managing the financial assets and the
contractual terms of the cash flows at initial recognition.
Business models
Business models are classified as Hold to Collect (HtC), Hold to Collect and Sell (HtC&S) or Other depending on
how a portfolio of financial instruments as a whole is managed. ING Group\u2019s business models are based on
the existing management structure of the bank, and refined based on an analysis of how businesses are
evaluated and reported, how their specific business risks are managed, and on historic and expected future
sales. Sales are permissible in a HtC business model when these are due to an increase in credit risk, take
place close to the maturity date (where the proceeds from the sales approximate the collection of the
remaining contractual cash flows), are insignificant in value (both individually and in aggregate) or are
infrequent.
Contractual cash flows Solely Payments of Principal and Interest (SPPI)
The contractual cash flows of a financial asset are assessed to determine whether they represent SPPI.
Interest includes consideration for the time value of money, credit risk and for other basic lending risks such
as consideration for liquidity risk and costs associated with holding the financial asset for a particular period
of time. In addition, interest can include a profit margin that is consistent with a basic lending arrangement.
Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their
cash flows are SPPI.
In assessing whether the contractual cash flows are SPPI, ING Group considers the contractual terms of the
instrument. This includes assessing whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could
change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not meet this condition.
Based on the entity\u2019s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the
cash flows, there are three measurement categories into which ING Group classifies its debt instruments:
\u2022 Amortised Cost (AC):
Debt instruments that are held for collection of contractual cash flows under a HtC business model where
those cash flows represent SPPI are measured at AC. Interest income from these financial assets is
included in Interest income using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method. Any gain or loss arising on
derecognition is recognised directly in profit or loss. Impairment losses are presented as a separate line
item in the statement of profit or loss.
\u2022 FVOCI:
Debt instruments that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets
under a HtC&S business model, where the assets\u2019 cash flows represent SPPI, are measured at FVOCI.
Movements in the carrying amount are recognised in OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains
or losses, interest revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit or loss.
When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is
reclassified from equity to profit or loss and presented in Investment income or Other net income, based
on the specific characteristics of the business model. Interest income from these financial assets is
included in Interest income using the EIR method. Impairment losses are presented as a separate line
item in the statement of profit or loss.
\u2022 FVPL:
Debt instruments that do not meet the criteria for AC or FVOCI are measured at FVPL. This includes debt
instruments that are held-for-trading (presented separately as Trading assets) and all other debt
instruments that do not meet the criteria for AC or FVOCI (presented separately as Mandatorily at FVPL).
ING Group may in some cases, on initial recognition, irrevocably designate a financial asset as classified
and measured at FVPL. This is the case where doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting
mismatch that would otherwise arise on assets measured at AC or FVOCI. Fair value movements on
trading securities, trading loans and deposits (mainly reverse repo's) are presented fully within valuation
result and net trading income. This also includes interest. The interest arising on financial assets
designated as at FVPL is recognised in profit or loss and presented within Other interest income or Other
interest expense in the period in which it arises. The interest arising on a debt instrument that is part of a
hedge relationship, but not subject to hedge accounting, is recognised in profit or loss and presented
within Other interest income or Other interest expense in the period in which it arises.
ING Group reclassifies debt instruments if, and only if, its business model for managing those financial assets
changes. Such changes in business models are expected to be very infrequent. There have been no
reclassifications during the reporting period.
Financial assets \u2013 Equity instruments
All equity investments are measured at fair value. ING Group applies the fair value through OCI option to
investments which are considered strategic, consisting of investments that add value to ING Group\u2019s core
banking activities.
There is no subsequent recycling of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of
investments if elected to be classified and measured as FVOCI. However, the cumulative gain or loss is
transferred within equity to retained earnings on derecognition of such equity instruments. Dividends from
such investments continue to be recognised in profit or loss as Investment income when ING Group\u2019s right to
receive payments is established. Impairment requirements are not applicable to equity investments
classified and measured as FVOCI.
Other remaining equity investments are measured at FVPL. All changes in the fair value are recognised in
Valuation result and Net trading income in the Consolidated statement of profit or loss.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified and subsequently measured at AC, except for financial guarantee contracts,
derivatives and liabilities designated at FVPL. Financial liabilities classified and measured at FVPL are
presented as follows:
\u2022 the amount of change in the fair value that is attributable to changes in own credit risk of the liability
designated at FVPL is presented in OCI. Upon derecognition this Debit Valuation Adjustment (DVA) impact
does not recycle from OCI to profit or loss;\u00a0
\u2022 the remaining amount of change in the fair value is presented in profit or loss in \u2018Valuation results and
net trading income\u2019. Interest on financial liabilities at FVPL is also recognised in the valuation result,
except for items voluntarily designated as FVPL, for which interest is presented within \u2018Other interest
income (expense)'.
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires ING Group to make specified payments to
reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in
accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. Such a contract is initially recognised at
fair value and is subsequently measured at the higher of (a) the amount determined in accordance with
impairment provisions of IFRS 9 \u2018Financial instruments\u2019 (see section 'Impairment of financial assets') and (b)
the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, cumulative amortisation recognised in accordance
with the revenue recognition principle of IFRS 15 \u2018Revenue from contracts with customers\u2019.
Repurchase transactions and reverse repurchase transactions
Securities sold subject to repurchase agreements (repo's), securities lending and similar agreements
continue to be recognised in the Consolidated statement of financial position. The counterparty liability is
measured at FVPL (designated) and included in Other financial liabilities at FVPL if the asset is measured at
FVPL. Otherwise, the counterparty liability is included in Deposits from banks, Customer deposits, or Trading,
as appropriate.
Securities purchased under agreements to resell (reverse repos), securities borrowings and similar
agreements are not recognised in the Consolidated statement of financial position. The consideration paid to
purchase securities is recognised as Loans and advances to customers, Loans and advances to banks, Other
financial assets at FVPL or Trading assets, as appropriate. The difference between the sale and repurchase
price is treated as interest and amortised over the life of the agreement using the effective interest method
for instruments that are not measured at FVPL.
1.5.3\u00a0 Fair values of financial assets and liabilities
All financial assets and liabilities are recognised initially at fair value. The fair value of a financial instrument
on initial recognition is generally its transaction price (that is, the fair value of the consideration given or
received). However, if there is a material difference between the transaction price and the fair value of
financial instruments whose fair value is based on a valuation technique using significant unobservable
inputs, the entire 'day one' difference (a \u2018Day One Profit or Loss\u2019) is deferred. ING Group defers the Day One
Profit or Loss relating to financial instruments classified as Level 3 and financial instruments with material
unobservable inputs into CVA which are not necessarily classified as Level 3. The deferred Day One Profit or
Loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss over the life of the transaction until the transaction
matures, or until the significant unobservable inputs become observable, or until the significant
unobservable inputs become non-significant. In all other cases, ING Group recognises the difference as a gain
or loss at inception.
Subsequently, except for financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost, all the other
financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It assumes that market
participants would use and take into account the characteristics of the asset or liability when pricing the
asset or liability. Fair values of financial assets and liabilities are based on unadjusted quoted market prices
where available. Such quoted market prices are primarily obtained from exchange prices for listed financial
instruments. Where an exchange price is not available, quoted prices in an active market may be obtained
from independent market vendors, brokers, or market makers. In general, positions are valued at the bid
price for a long position and at the offer price for a short position or are valued at the price within the bid-
offer spread that is most representative of fair value in the circumstances. In some cases where positions are
marked at mid-market prices, a fair value adjustment is calculated.
For certain financial assets and liabilities, quoted market prices are not available. For such instruments, fair
value is determined using valuation techniques. These range from discounting of cash flows to various
valuation models, where relevant pricing factors including the market price of underlying reference
instruments, market parameters (volatilities, correlations and credit ratings), and customer behaviour are
taken into account. ING Group maximises the use of market observable inputs and minimises the use of
unobservable inputs in determining the fair value. It can be subjective dependent on the significance of the
unobservable input to the overall valuation. All valuation techniques used are subject to internal review and
approval. Most data used in these valuation techniques are validated on a daily basis when possible.
When a group of financial assets and liabilities are managed on the basis of their net risk exposures, the fair
value of a group of financial assets and liabilities are measured on a net portfolio level.
To include credit risk in fair value, ING Group applies both Credit and Debit Valuation Adjustments (CVA, DVA,
also known as Bilateral Valuation Adjustments or BVA). Own issued debt and structured notes that are
designated at FVPL are adjusted for ING Group\u2019s own credit risk by means of a DVA. To include the funding
risk, ING Group applies an additional \u2018Funding Valuation Adjustment\u2019 (FVA) to the uncollateralised derivatives
based on the market price of funding liquidity. ING Group also applies to certain positions other valuation
adjustments to arrive at the fair value, such as Bid-Offer adjustments, Model Risk Adjustments and Collateral
Valuation Adjustments (CollVA).
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
\u2022 Even if market prices are available, when markets are less liquid there may be a range of prices for
the same security from different price sources. Selecting the most appropriate price requires
judgement and could result in different estimates of fair value.\u00a0
\u2022 Valuation techniques are subjective in nature and significant judgement is involved in establishing
fair values for certain financial assets and liabilities. Valuation techniques involve various
assumptions regarding pricing factors. The use of different valuation techniques and assumptions
could produce significantly different estimates of fair value.\u00a0
\u2022 Price testing is performed to assess whether the process of valuation has led to an appropriate fair
value of the position and to minimise the potential risks of economic losses due to incorrect or
misused models.
\u2022 Assessing whether a market is active, and whether an input is observable and significant, requires
judgement. ING Group categorises its financial instruments that are either measured in the
statement of financial position at fair value or of which the fair value is disclosed, into a three-level
hierarchy based on the observability and significance of the valuation inputs. The use of different
approaches to assess whether a market is active, whether an input is observable, and whether an
unobservable input is significant could produce different classification within the fair value
hierarchy as well as potentially different deferral of the Day One Profit or Loss.
\u2022 Reference is made to Note 34 'Fair value of assets and liabilities' and to the \u2018Market risk\u2019 paragraph
in the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report for the basis of the determination of the fair
value of financial instruments and related sensitivities.
1.5.4\u00a0 Derivatives and hedge accounting
IFRS 9 includes an accounting policy choice to defer the adoption of IFRS 9 hedge accounting and to continue
with hedge accounting under IAS 39. ING Group decided to exercise this accounting policy choice and did not
adopt IFRS 9 hedge accounting as of 1 January 2018. Furthermore, ING Group applies fair value hedge
accounting for portfolio hedges of interest rate risk (macro fair value hedges) in accordance with the EU
carve-out version of IAS 39.
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and
are subsequently measured at fair value. Fair values are obtained from quoted market prices in active
markets, including market transactions and valuation techniques (such as discounted cash flow models and
option pricing models), as appropriate. All derivatives are carried as assets when their fair value is positive
and as liabilities when their fair value is negative. Fair value movements on derivatives are presented in profit
or loss in 'Valuation result and net trading income', except for derivatives in either a formal hedge
relationship or so-called economic hedges that are not in a formal hedge accounting relationship where a
component is presented separately in interest result in line with ING Group\u2019s risk management strategy.
Embedded derivatives are separated from financial liabilities and other non-financial contracts and
accounted for as a derivative if, and only if:
1. the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to the
economic characteristics and risks of the host contract;
2. a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a
derivative; and
3. the combined instrument is not measured at fair value with changes in fair value reported in profit or loss.
If an embedded derivative is separated, the host contract is accounted for as a similar free-standing
contract.
The method of recognising the resulting fair value gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is
designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. ING Group designates
certain derivatives as hedges of the fair value of recognised assets or liabilities or firm commitments (fair
value hedge), hedges of highly probable future cash flows attributable to a recognised asset or liability or a
forecast transaction (cash flow hedge), or hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation. Hedge
accounting is used for derivatives designated in this way provided certain criteria are met.
At the inception of the transaction, ING Group documents the relationship between hedging instruments and
hedged items, its risk management objective, together with the methods selected to assess hedge
effectiveness. ING Group also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis,
of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in
fair values or cash flows of the hedged items.
Fair value hedges
Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recognised in
the statement of profit or loss, together with fair value adjustments to the hedged item attributable to the
hedged risk. If the hedge relationship no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the cumulative
adjustment of the hedged item is, in the case of interest-bearing instruments, amortised through the
statement of profit or loss over the remaining term of the original hedge or recognised directly when the
hedged item is derecognised. For non-interest bearing instruments, the cumulative adjustment of the
hedged item is recognised in the statement of profit or loss only when the hedged item is derecognised.
Cash flow hedges
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow
hedges are recognised in the Other Comprehensive Income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective
portion is recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss. Amounts accumulated in the Other
Comprehensive Income are recycled to the statement of profit or loss in the periods in which the hedged
item affects net result. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, or when a hedge no longer meets the
criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in the Other Comprehensive Income at
that time remains in the Other Comprehensive Income and is recognised when the forecast transaction is
ultimately recognised in the statement of profit or loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to
occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in the Other Comprehensive Income is transferred
immediately to the statement of profit or loss.
Net investment hedges
Hedges of net investments in foreign operations are accounted for in a similar way to cash flow hedges. Any
gain or loss on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge is recognised in the
Other Comprehensive Income and the gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised
immediately in the statement of profit or loss. Gains and losses accumulated in the Other Comprehensive
Income are included in the statement of profit or loss when the foreign operation is disposed.
Benchmark rate reform \u2013 specific policies for hedges directly affected by the benchmark rate
reform
As explained in the \u2018Impact of the benchmark rate reform\u2019 paragraph of the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section, a
fundamental review of important interest rate benchmarks has been carried out, and is still ongoing for
some of them (for instance, WIBOR).
Given that the benchmark rate reform may have various accounting implications, the IASB has undertaken a
two-phase project. Phase 1 (issued in 2019) addresses those issues that affect financial reporting before the
replacement of an existing benchmark. Phase 2 (issued in 2020) focuses on issues that may affect financial
reporting when the existing benchmark rate is reformed or replaced.
Phase 1 amendments to IFRS allow ING Group to apply a set of temporary exceptions to continue hedge
accounting even when there is uncertainty about contractual cash flows arising from the reform. Under
these temporary exceptions, interbank-offered rates are assumed to continue unaltered for the purposes of
hedge accounting until such time as the uncertainty is resolved.
More specifically, the following temporary reliefs are part of the Phase 1 amendments:
\u2022 Highly probable requirement for cash flow hedges
When determining whether a forecast transaction is highly probable, it is assumed that the interest rate
benchmark on which the hedged cash flows are based is not altered as a result of the reform.
\u2022 Prospective assessment of hedge effectiveness
When performing the prospective assessment it is assumed that the interest rate benchmark on which
the hedged cash flows are based is not altered as a result of the reform.
\u2022 Retrospective assessment of hedge effectiveness
When performing the retrospective assessment, hedges are allowed to pass the assessment even if
actual results are outside the 80-125% range, during the period of uncertainty arising from the
benchmark rate reform.
\u2022 Designation of a component of an item as a hedged item
For hedges of the benchmark component of interest rate risk affected by the reform, the separately
identifiable requirement only needs to be demonstrated at the inception of such hedging relationships
(including macro hedges).
The amendments are relevant given that ING Group hedges and applies hedge accounting to the benchmark
interest rate exposure part of the benchmark rate reform. ING Group hedges are being progressively
amended, where necessary, to incorporate the new benchmark rates. Temporary exceptions under Phase 1
continued to be relevant for ING Group as at 31 December 2024 (mainly for WIBOR hedges).
ING Group will completely cease to apply the amendments when this uncertainty is no longer present or
when the hedging relationship is discontinued. Refer to note \u2018Risk management/ Impact of the benchmark
rate reform\u2019 for the disclosures relating to the application of the amendments as part of Phase 1.
Phase 2 amendments require that hedge accounting continues on transition to risk free rates provided that
the modifications made to financial instruments are those necessary to implement the benchmark rate
reform and that the new basis for calculating cash flows is \u2018economically equivalent\u2019 to the previous basis.
Particularly, Phase 2 amendments allow the continuation of hedging relationships, subject to amending their
documentation to reflect changes in hedged instruments, hedging instruments, hedged risk, and/or the
method for measuring effectiveness during the transition to the new benchmark rates. By applying these
mandatory amendments, ING Group avoids hedge accounting discontinuations when modifying both
hedged items and hedging instruments (and related hedge documentation) as a consequence of the
benchmark rate reform that would otherwise be required in the absence of Phase 2 amendments. During
2024, Phase 2 continued to be relevant for ING Group when ING actually transitioned its financial
instruments (designated in hedge accounting relationships) to the new benchmark rates.
More specifically, the following temporary reliefs are part of the Phase 2 amendments:
Relief from discontinuing hedging relationships
\u2022 Amendments in the hedge documentation as a consequence of changes required by the benchmark rate
reform do not result in the discontinuation of the hedge relationship nor the designation of a new hedge
relationship. The changes can be in the form of designating an alternative benchmark rate as a hedged
risk, the description of the hedging instrument, the description of the hedged item, or the method to
measure the effectiveness.
\u2022 When the hedged item is amended as a consequence of the benchmark rate reform (or if the hedge has
previously been discontinued), amounts accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve are deemed to be
based on the Risk-Free Rate (RFR). This results in the release of the cash flow hedge reserve to profit or
loss in the same period or periods in which the hedged cash flows that are now based on the RFR affect
profit or loss.
\u2022 When the items within a designated group of hedged items are amended as a consequence of the
benchmark rate reform, the hedging strategy remains and is not discontinued. As items within the
hedged group transition at different times from the benchmark rates to RFRs, they are transferred to sub-
groups of instruments that reference RFRs as the hedged risk. The existing benchmark rates remain
designated as the hedged risk for the other sub-group of hedged items, until they are also updated to
reference the new RFR. The usual hedge accounting requirements are applied to the hedge relationship in
its entirety.
\u2022 For the assessment of retrospective hedge effectiveness, the cumulative fair value changes may be reset
to zero when the exception to the retrospective assessment of the Phase 1 reliefs ends. This decision is
made separately for each hedging relationship (i.e., on a hedge-by-hedge basis).
\u2022 Temporary relief from having to meet the separately identifiable requirement: a RFR is considered a
separately identifiable risk component if it is reasonably expected to meet the separately identifiable
requirement within 24 months from the date it is first designated as a non-contractually specified risk
component (i.e. when the entity first designates the RFR as a non-contractually specified risk
component). This relief applies to each RFR on a rate-by-rate basis.
As explained above, Phase 1 and Phase 2 benchmark rate amendments to IFRS provide specific hedge
accounting reliefs that allow hedge accounting relationships to continue when the benchmark rate reform is
ongoing. Phase 1 reliefs cease to apply when uncertainty arising from the benchmark rate reform is no
longer present with respect to the timing and amount of the benchmark rate-based cash flows of the
relevant instruments, or when the hedging instrument is discontinued. It is ING Group\u2019s policy to cease to
apply Phase 1 reliefs when the applicable contract (either hedging instrument or hedged item) is actually
modified. As a result, for these hedge accounting relationships the applicable Phase 1 reliefs ceased to apply
and Phase 2 became applicable. Refer to note \u2018Risk management/Impact of the benchmark rate reform\u2019 for
the disclosures relating to the application of the amendments as part of Phase 2.
Non-trading derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting
Derivative instruments that are used by ING Group as part of its risk management strategies, but which do
not qualify for hedge accounting under ING Group\u2019s accounting policies, are presented as non-trading
derivatives. Non-trading derivatives are measured at fair value with changes in the fair value taken to the
statement of profit or loss.
1.5.5\u00a0 Offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset, and the net amount is reported in the statement of
financial position, when ING Group has a current legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts
and intends to either settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Offsetting is applied to derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements and cash pooling
agreements. A significant portion of offsetting is applied to derivatives and related cash margin balances,
which are either directly cleared through central clearing parties or cleared through clearing members of
central clearing parties. For more information, reference is made to Note 39 \u2018Offsetting financial assets and
liabilities\u2019.
1.5.6\u00a0 Impairment of financial assets
An Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model is applied to financial assets accounted for at AC or FVOCI such as loans,
debt securities and lease receivables, as well as off-balance sheet items such as undrawn loan
commitments, certain financial guarantees issued, and undrawn committed revolving credit facilities. Under
the ECL model, ING Group calculates the ECL by considering on a discounted basis the cash shortfall it would
incur in case of a default and multiplying the shortfall by the probability of a default occurring. The ECL is the
sum of the probability-weighted outcomes. The ECL estimates are unbiased and include reasonable and
supportable information about past events, current conditions, and forecasts of future economic conditions.
ECL is recognised on the balance sheet as loan loss provisions (LLP).
Three-stage approach
Financial assets are classified in one of the below three stages at each reporting date. A financial asset can
move between Stages during its lifetime. The Stages are based on changes in credit quality since initial
recognition and defined as follows:
\u2022 Stage 1
Financial assets that have not had a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition (i.e. no Stage
2 or 3 triggers apply). Assets are classified as Stage 1 upon initial recognition (with the exception of
purchased or originated credit impaired (POCI) assets) and ECL is determined by the probability that a
default occurs in the next 12 months (12 months ECL);
\u2022 Stage 2
Financial assets showing a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. For assets in Stage 2,
ECL reflects an estimate on the credit losses over the remaining maturity of the asset (lifetime ECL); or
\u2022 Stage 3
Financial assets that are credit-impaired. Also for these assets, ECL is determined over the remaining
maturity of the asset.
Significant increase in credit risk
ING Group established a framework, incorporating quantitative and qualitative indicators, to identify and
assess significant increases in credit risk (SICR). This is used to determine the appropriate ECL Stage for each
financial asset. Reference is made to the \u2018Criteria for identifying a significant increase in credit risk (SICR)\u2019 in
the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
An asset that is in Stage 2 will move back to Stage 1 when none of the above criteria are in place anymore.
However, if the asset was moved to Stage 2 based on the forbearance status, then the asset stays in Stage 2
for at least 24 months. If the asset was classified as Stage 2 due to the '30 days past due' trigger, then the
asset is moved back to Stage 1 only after three months from when the trigger no longer applies.
Credit-impaired financial assets (Stage 3)
Financial assets are assessed for credit-impairment at each reporting date and more frequently when
circumstances warrant further assessment. Evidence of credit-impairment includes arrears of over 90 days
on any material credit obligation, indications that the borrower is experiencing significant financial difficulty,
a breach of contract, bankruptcy or distressed restructuring. The definition of 'credit-impaired' under IFRS 9
(Stage 3) is aligned with the definition of 'default' used by ING Group for internal risk management purposes,
which is also the definition used for regulatory purposes.
An asset (other than a POCI asset) that is in Stage 3 will move back to Stage 2 when, as at the reporting date,
it is no longer considered to be credit-impaired, subject to certain probation periods. The asset will migrate
back to Stage 1 when its credit risk at the reporting date is no longer considered to have increased
significantly since initial recognition.
Macroeconomic scenarios
ING Group has established a quarterly process whereby forward-looking macroeconomics scenarios and
probability weightings are developed for the purpose of ECL. ING Group applies data predominantly from a
leading service provider enriched with the internal ING Group view. A baseline, up-scenario and down-
scenario are determined to reflect an unbiased and probability-weighted ECL amount. As a baseline
scenario, ING Group applies the market-neutral view combining consensus forecasts for economic variables
such as unemployment rates, GDP growth, house prices, commodity prices, and short-term interest rates.
Applying market consensus in the baseline scenario ensures unbiased estimates of the expected credit
losses.
The alternative scenarios are based on observed forecast errors in the past, adjusted for the risks affecting
the economy today and the forecast horizon. The probabilities assigned are based on the likelihoods of
observing the three scenarios and are derived from confidence intervals on a probability distribution. The
forecasts for the economic variables are adjusted on a quarterly basis.
The probability weights applied to each of the three scenarios
ING Group uses three macroeconomic scenarios when determining IFRS 9 ECL (baseline, upside and
downside). The management approach used to determine the weights of each scenario and in selecting the
parts of the distribution of forecast errors from which the weights are derived is disclosed in the 'Alternative
Scenarios and Probability Weights' section. Additionally, this approach is detailed in the sensitivity analysis
within the 'Risk Management' section of the Annual Report.
Measurement of ECL
ING Group applies a collective assessment method to measure ECL for Stage 1, Stage 2, and certain Stage 3
assets. Other credit-impaired assets subject to ECL measurement apply the individual assessment method.
Collectively assessed assets (Stages 1 to 3)
For collective assessed assets, ING Group applies a model-based approach. ECL is determined by, expressed
simplistically, multiplying the probability of default (PD) with the loss given default (LGD) and exposure at
default (EAD), adjusted for the time value of money. Assets that are collectively assessed are grouped on the
basis of similar credit-risk characteristics, taking into account the loan type, industry, geographic location,
collateral type, past due status and other relevant factors. These characteristics are relevant to the
estimation of future cash flows for groups of such assets by being indicative of the debtors\u2019 ability to pay all
amounts due according to the contractual terms of the assets being evaluated and the loss in case the
debtor is not able to pay all amounts due.
For Stage 3 assets, the PD equals 100% and the LGD and EAD represent a lifetime view of the losses based on
characteristics of defaulted facilities.
For the measurement of ECL, ING Group\u2019s expected credit loss models (PD, LGD, EAD) used for regulatory
purposes have been adjusted. These adjustments include removing embedded prudential conservatism
(such as floors) and converted through-the-cycle estimates to point-in-time estimates. The models assess
ECL on the basis of forward-looking macroeconomic forecasts and other inputs. For most financial assets,
the expected life is limited to the remaining maturity. For overdrafts and certain revolving credit facilities,
such as credit cards, the maturity is estimated based on historical data as these do not have a fixed term or
repayment schedule.
Individually assessed assets (Stage 3)
ING Group estimates ECL for individually significant credit-impaired financial assets within Stage 3 on an
individual basis. ECL for these Individually assessed assets are determined using the discounted expected
future cash flow method. To determine expected future cash flows, one or more scenarios are used. Each
scenario is analysed based on the probability of occurrence and includes forward-looking information.
In determining the scenarios, all relevant factors impacting the future cash flows are taken into account.
These include expected developments in credit quality, business and economic forecasts, and estimates of if/
when recoveries will occur, taking into account ING Group\u2019s restructuring/recovery strategy.
The best estimate of ECL is calculated as the weighted-average of the shortfall (gross carrying amount
minus discounted expected future cash flow using the original EIR) per scenario, based on best estimates of
expected future cash flows. Recoveries can arise from, among other things, the repayment of the loan,
collateral recovery and the sale of the asset. Cash flows from collateral and other credit enhancements are
included in the measurement of ECL of the related financial asset when it is part of or integral to the
contractual terms of the financial asset and the credit enhancement is not recognised separately. For the
individual assessment, with granular (company- or asset-specific) scenarios, specific factors can have a
larger impact on the future cash flows than macroeconomic factors.
When a financial asset is credit-impaired, interest income is no longer recognised based on the gross
carrying amount of the asset. Instead, interest income is calculated by applying the original effective
interest rate to the amortised cost of the asset, which is the gross carrying amount less the related loan loss
provision.
Purchased or Originated Credit Impaired (POCI) assets
POCI assets are financial assets that are credit-impaired on initial recognition. Impairment on a POCI asset is
determined based on lifetime ECL from initial recognition. POCI assets are recognised initially at an amount net
of ECL and are measured at AC using a credit-adjusted effective interest rate. In subsequent periods, any
changes to the estimated lifetime ECL are recognised in profit or loss. Favourable changes are recognised as an
impairment gain if the lifetime ECL at the reporting date is lower than the estimated lifetime ECL at origination.
Write-off and debt forgiveness
Loans and debt securities are written off (either partially or in full) when there is no reasonable expectation
of recovery and/or collectability of amounts due. The following events can lead to a write-off:
\u2022 After a restructuring has been completed and there is a high improbability of recovery of part of the
remaining loan exposure (including partial debt forgiveness);
\u2022 In a bankruptcy liquidation scenario;
\u2022 After divestment or sale of a credit facility at a discount; and
\u2022 Specific fraud cases with no recourse options.
When a loan is uncollectable, it is written off against the related loan loss provision. Subsequent recoveries of
amounts previously written off are recognised in \u2018Addition to loan loss provisions\u2019 in the Consolidated
statement of profit or loss.
Debt forgiveness (or debt settlement) involves write-off, but also involves the forgiveness of a legal
obligation, in whole or in part. This means that ING Group forfeits the legal right to recover the debt. As a
result, the financial asset needs to be derecognised.
Presentation of ECL
ECL for financial assets measured at AC is deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. For debt
instruments at FVOCI, the ECL is recognised in OCI, instead of deducting it from the carrying amount of the
asset. ECL also reflects any credit losses related to the portion of the loan commitment that is expected to
be drawn down over the remaining life of the instrument. The ECL on issued financial guarantee contracts, in
scope of IFRS 9 and not measured at FVPL, is recognised as liabilities and presented in Other provisions. ECL
are presented in profit or loss in Addition to loan loss provision.
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The calculation of ECL requires a number of judgements and estimates. In particular:
\u2022 ING Group makes various assumptions about the risk of default, the credit loss rates in case of a
default and expected future cash flows. For collective provisions, ING Group applies significant
judgement when estimating modelled parameters such as PD, LGD and EAD, including the
selection and calibration of relevant models. For Stage 3 individual provisioning, the determination
and probabilities of restructuring and recovery scenarios, as well as the amount and timing of
expected future cash flows, may be particularly subjective.
\u2022 Forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios used in impairment assessments are uncertain in
nature. The use of alternate forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios can produce significantly
different estimates of ECL. This is demonstrated in the sensitivity analysis in the \u2018Risk Management\u2019
section of the annual report, where the un-weighted ECL under each of the three scenarios for
some significant portfolios is disclosed.
\u2022 When determining whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly (criteria
for identifying a significant increase in credit risk), ING Group considers reasonable and
supportable information to compare the risk of default occurring at reporting date with the risk of a
default occurring at initial recognition of the financial asset. Whilst judgement is required in
applying a PD rating to each financial asset, there is significant judgement used in determining the
Stage allocation PD banding thresholds. The process of comparing a financial asset\u2019s PD with the
PD banding thresholds determines its ECL Stage. Assets in Stage 1 are allocated a 12-month ECL,
and those in Stage 2 are allocated a lifetime ECL, and the difference is often significant. As such,
the judgement made in assigning financial asset PDs and the PD banding thresholds constitutes a
significant judgement. Analysis of the sensitivity associated with the assessment of a significant
increase in credit risk is presented in the \u2018Risk Management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
\u2022 Judgement is exercised in management\u2019s evaluation of whether there is objective evidence that
exposures are credit-impaired.
\u2022 To reflect the risks that are not properly captured by the ECL models (including climate risk), a
number of management adjustments to the model-based ECL were necessary as at 31 December
2024, which required significant judgement. Reference is made to the \u2018Management adjustments
applied this reporting period\u2019 paragraph in the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
1.5.7\u00a0 Modification of financial instruments
In certain circumstances, ING Group grants borrowers postponement, reduction of loan principal and/or
interest payments on a temporary period of time to maximise collection opportunities, and if possible, avoid
default, foreclosure, or repossession. When such postponement, reduction of loan principal and/or interest
payments are executed based on credit concerns, they are also referred to as forbearance (refer to the \u2018Risk
Management\u2019 section of the Annual Report for more details) and require analysis on whether the contractual
terms have been substantially modified or not. A similar assessment is needed when contractual terms are
modified for reasons other than forbearance.
ING Group determines whether there has been a substantial modification using both quantitative and
qualitative factors. If the modification results in a substantial modification of the terms of the loan, the
original loan is derecognised and a new loan is recognised at fair value at the modification date. In case of a
non-substantial modification, a modification gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss.
Benchmark rate reform \u2013 specific policies for modifications necessary to implement the benchmark rate
reform
As explained in the \u2018Benchmark rate reform \u2013 specific policies for hedges directly affected by the benchmark
rate reform\u2019 paragraph of section \u20181.5.4 Derivatives and hedge accounting\u2019, given that the benchmark rate
reform may have various accounting implications, the IASB undertook a two-phase project. Apart from
hedge accounting, Phase 2 amendments to IFRS relate to accounting for changes in the basis for
determining the contractual cash flows of financial assets and liabilities due to the benchmark rate reform.
Specifically, Phase 2 amendments require that the effective interest rate on debt financial instruments is
adjusted, but only to the extent that the modifications made to financial instruments are those necessary to
implement the benchmark rate reform and that the new basis for calculating cash flows is \u2018economically
equivalent\u2019 to the previous basis. By applying these mandatory amendments, ING Group avoids recognising
modification gains and losses on debt instruments that would otherwise be required in the absence of Phase
2 amendments (changes to debt instruments resulting from the benchmark rate reform are treated as a
reset to the instrument\u2019s variable interest rate). Refer to note \u2018Risk management/Impact of the benchmark
rate reform\u2019 for the disclosures relating to the application of the amendments as part of Phase 2.
1.5.8\u00a0 Accounting for Targeted Longer-Term Refinancing Operations (TLTRO)
ING Group participated in the Targeted Longer-Term Refinancing Operations (TLTRO III), which mainly
affected comparative periods as, in March 2024, ING repaid the final EUR 6 billion of its TLTRO III participation.
ING Group considered TLTRO funding provided by the ECB to banks to be on market terms on the basis that
the ECB has established a separate market with TLTRO programmes. They have specific terms which are
different from other sources of funding available to banks, including those provided by the ECB.
Consequently, the rate under TLTRO was considered to be a market conforming rate and TLTRO funding was
recognised fully as a financial liability.
ING Group interpreted the whole rate set by the ECB under TLTRO as a floating rate on the financial liability,
being the market rate for each specific period in time. This resulted in discrete rates for discrete interest
periods over the life of TLTRO. The change in the applicable rate between interest periods was seen as a
change in the floating rate and was accounted for prospectively. Similarly, if the ECB announced changes in
the rate for the amounts already drawn under the existing TLTRO, then such changes also represented a
change in a floating rate. Following this, such changes led to the recognition of an increased/decreased
interest in the relevant period of life of the exposure, rather than by the recognition of an immediate
modification gain or loss at the moment of the change of terms by the ECB. If the change related to the
periods already passed, the impact for those past periods was recognised in profit or loss immediately.
Reference is made to Note 12 \u2018Deposits from banks\u2019 and to Note 20 \u2018Net interest income\u2019 for the presentation
of ING Group\u2019s participation in TLTRO programmes.
1.6\u00a0 Consolidation
ING Group comprises ING Groep N.V. (the Parent Company), ING Bank N.V. and all other subsidiaries.
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by ING Groep N.V. Control exists if ING Groep N.V. is exposed to or has
rights to variable returns and has the ability to affect those returns through the power over the subsidiary.
For interests in structured entities, the existence of control requires judgement as these entities are designed
so that voting or similar rights are not the dominant factor in deciding who controls the entity. This
judgement includes, for example, the involvement in the design of the structured entity, contractual
arrangements that give rights to direct the structured entities' relevant activities and commitment to ensure
that the structured entity operates as designed.
Transactions between ING Groep N.V. and its subsidiaries are eliminated on consolidation. Reference is made
to Note 44 'Principal subsidiaries, investments in associates and joint ventures' for a list of principal
subsidiaries and their statutory place of incorporation. A description of ING\u2019s activities involving structured
entities is included in Note 44 'Structured entities'.
A list containing the information referred to in Section 379 (1), Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code has been filed
with the office of the Commercial Register of Amsterdam, in accordance with Section 379 (5), Book 2 of the
Dutch Civil Code.
ING Groep N.V. and its Dutch group companies are subject to legal restrictions regarding the amount of
dividends they can pay to their shareholders. The Dutch Civil Code contains the restriction that dividends can
only be paid up to an amount equal to the excess of the company\u2019s own funds over the sum of the paid-up
capital and reserves required by law. Certain Group companies are also subject to other restrictions in certain
countries, in addition to the restrictions on the amount of funds that may be transferred in the form of
dividends, or otherwise, to the parent company.
Furthermore, in addition to the restrictions regarding the minimum capital requirements that are imposed
by industry regulators in the countries in which the subsidiaries operate, other limitations exist in certain
countries.
1.7\u00a0 Segment reporting
An operating segment is a distinguishable component of ING Group, engaged in providing products or
services, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Executive Board of ING Group and the
Management Board Banking (together they make up the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM)) who
decide which resources to allocate to the segment and assess its performance. A geographical area is a
distinguishable component of ING Group engaged in providing products or services within a particular
economic environment that is subject to risks and returns that differ from those of segments operating in
other economic environments.
The CODM reviews and assesses ING Group's performance primarily by line of business. As a result, ING
identified five operating segments which are also disclosed as reportable segments. Additionally, the CODM
receives information by geographical area based on the location of the office where transactions originate.
1.8\u00a0 Hyperinflation accounting
Since the second quarter of 2022, T\u00fcrkiye has been considered a hyperinflationary economy for accounting
purposes. As ING Group has a subsidiary in T\u00fcrkiye, ING Group has applied IAS 29 \u2018Financial Reporting in
Hyperinflationary Economies\u2019 to its operations since 2022 as if the economy in T\u00fcrkiye had always been
hyperinflationary. Given that ING Group presents its results in EUR, comparatives do not get restated. As a
result, the impact of the first-time application of IAS 29, as well as the effect for that year, were both
recognised in 2022. IAS 29 continued to be relevant for ING\u2019s operations in T\u00fcrkiye in 2023 and 2024. Under
IAS 29, the results of the operations in T\u00fcrkiye should be stated in terms of the current purchasing power at
the reporting date. For that, the consumer price index (CPI) as determined by the Turkish Statistical Institute
was used. The CPI for T\u00fcrkiye (2003=100) at 31 December 2024 was 2,684.55, at 31 December 2023 it was
1,859.38 and for 2022 it was 1,128.45 (movement 2024: 44.38%; movement 2023: 64.77%, movement 2022:
64.27%). The effect of such restatement for inflation in the current period of the statement of
comprehensive income and the balance sheet has been recognised in the statement of profit or loss within
\u2018Other net income\u2019 as a \u2018Net monetary gain or loss\u2019. The net monetary loss for the period represents the loss
of purchasing power by the net monetary position (monetary assets exceeding monetary liabilities) of ING
T\u00fcrkiye.
After the application of the above restatement procedures in Turkish Lira under IAS 29, the financial position
and the results for the period of ING T\u00fcrkiye were translated and presented in EUR at the exchange rate on
31 December 2024. For the statement of comprehensive income this is in contrast with the usual translation
procedures where items of comprehensive income are translated at the exchange rate at the date of
transaction. Furthermore, ING Group chose to present both the restatement effect resulting from restating
ING Group\u2019s interest in the equity of ING T\u00fcrkiye as required by IAS 29, and the translation effect from
translating at a closing rate that differs from the previous closing rate, in the Currency translation reserve.
1.9\u00a0 Foreign currency translation
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of ING Group\u2019s entities are measured using the currency
of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). The
Consolidated financial statements are presented in euros, which is ING Group\u2019s presentation currency.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rate prevailing
at the date of the transactions. Exchange rate differences resulting from the settlement of such transactions
and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in
foreign currencies are recognised in the statement of profit or loss, except when deferred in equity as part of
qualifying cash flow hedges or qualifying net investment hedges.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using
the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Exchange rate differences on non-monetary items, measured at fair value through profit or loss, are reported as
part of the fair value gain or loss. Non-monetary items are retranslated at the date the fair value is determined.
Exchange rate differences on non-monetary items measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
are included in other comprehensive income and get accumulated in the revaluation reserve in equity.
Exchange rate differences in the statement of profit or loss are generally included in \u2018Valuation results and
net trading income\u2019. Reference is made to Note 22 \u2018Valuation results and net trading income\u2019, which
discloses the amounts included in the statement of profit or loss. Exchange rate differences relating to the
disposal of debt and FVPL equity securities are considered to be an inherent part of the capital gains and
losses recognised in Investment income. As mentioned below, in Group companies relating to the disposals
of group companies, any exchange rate difference deferred in equity is recognised in the statement of profit
or loss in \u2018Result on disposal of group companies\u2019. Reference is also made to Note 19 \u2018Equity\u2019, which discloses
the amounts included in the statement of profit or loss.
Group companies
The results and financial positions of all group companies that have a functional currency different from the
presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
\u2022 Assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of the statement of financial position;\u00a0
\u2022 Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable
approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case
income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions). However, under hyperinflation
accounting, income and expenses of ING T\u00fcrkiye are translated at the closing rate; and\u00a0
\u2022 All resulting exchange rate differences are recognised in a separate component of equity.\u00a0
On consolidation, exchange rate differences arising from the translation of a monetary item that forms part
of the net investment in a foreign operation, and of borrowings and other instruments designated as hedges
of such investments, are taken to shareholders\u2019 equity. When a foreign operation is sold, the corresponding
exchange rate differences are recognised in the statement of profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on sale.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising from the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets
and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date.
1.10\u00a0 Investments in associates and joint ventures
Associates are all entities over which ING Group has significant influence but not control. Significant influence
is the ability to participate in the financial and operating policies of the investee. It generally results from a
shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights or through situations including, but not limited to
one or more of the following:
\u2022 Representation on the board of directors;\u00a0
\u2022 Participation in the policymaking process; and\u00a0
\u2022 Interchange of managerial personnel.\u00a0
Joint ventures are entities over which ING Group has joint control.
Investments in associates and joint ventures are initially recognised at cost and subsequently accounted for
using the equity method of accounting.
ING Group\u2019s investment in associates and joint ventures (net of any accumulated impairment loss) includes
goodwill identified on acquisition. ING Group\u2019s share of its associates and joint ventures post-acquisition
profits or losses is recognised in the statement of profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition changes in
reserves is recognised in equity. The cumulative post-acquisition changes are adjusted against the carrying
amount of the investment. When ING Group\u2019s share of losses in an associate or joint venture equals or
exceeds its interest in the associate or joint venture, including any long-term interests in the associate like
uncollateralised loans that are neither planned nor likely to be settled in the foreseeable future, ING Group
does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the
associate or joint venture.
Unrealised gains on transactions between ING Group and its associates and joint ventures are eliminated to
the extent of ING Group\u2019s interest in the associates and joint ventures. Unrealised losses are also eliminated
unless they provide evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates
and joint ventures have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by
ING Group.
The recoverable amount, being the higher of fair value less cost of disposal and value in use, of the
investment in associate and joint venture is determined when there is an indication of potential (reversal of)
impairment. An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of the investment exceeds its
recoverable amount. Goodwill on acquisitions of interests in associates and joint ventures is not tested
separately for impairment, but is assessed as part of the carrying amount of the investment. An impairment
loss is subsequently reversed if there is indication of a reversal and there is a change in the estimates used to
determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the recoverable
amount exceeds its carrying amount, but cannot exceed the original impairment loss.
The reporting dates of certain associates and joint ventures can differ from the reporting date of the Group,
but by no more than three months.
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
Identification of impairment indicators as well as indicators of potential reversal of previous
impairments of ING Group\u2019s investment in TMBThanachart Bank Public Company Limited (hereafter:
TTB), an associate, requires significant judgement. When there is objective evidence of impairment or
indicators that prior period impairment losses no longer exist or may have decreased, value in use
(VIU) needs to be determined. Estimation of VIU involves significant estimates and management
assumptions. See Note 8 \u2018Investments in associates and joint ventures\u2019.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0
1.11\u00a0 Property and equipment
Property in own use
Land and buildings held for own use are stated at fair value at the balance sheet date. Depreciation is
recognised on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life (in general 20\u201350 years). On disposal, the
related revaluation reserve is transferred to retained earnings.
Equipment
Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. The cost of the assets
is depreciated on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives, which are generally as follows: two to
five years for data processing equipment, and four to ten years for fixtures and fittings.
Disposals of property and equipment
The difference between the proceeds on disposal and net carrying value is recognised in the statement of
profit or loss under Other net income.
Right-of-use assets
ING Group as the lessee
A lessee is required to recognise a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset
and a corresponding liability representing its obligation to make lease payments at the date at which the
leased asset is available for use by ING Group. Each lease payment is allocated between the repayment of the
liability and finance cost. The finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce
a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The right-of-use
asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset\u2019s useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis.
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities
include the net present value of the following lease payments:
\u2022 Fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable;
\u2022 Variable lease payments that are based on an index or a rate;
\u2022 Amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;
\u2022 The exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and
\u2022 Payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising that option.
The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily
determined, the lessee\u2019s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the lessee would have to
pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value in a similar economic environment
with similar terms and conditions.
Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the amount of the initial measurement of the lease
liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received
and any initial direct costs and restoration costs.
The right-of-use asset is included in the statement of financial position line-item \u2018Property and equipment\u2019.
The lease liability is included in the statement of financial position line-item \u2018Other liabilities\u2019. Refer to Note 9
\u2018Property and equipment\u2019 and to Note 16 \u2018Other liabilities\u2019.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the right-of-use asset amortises using a straight-line method to the
income statement over the life of the lease. The lease liability increases for the accrual of interest and
decreases when payments are made. Any remeasurement of the lease liability due to a lease modification
or other reassessment results in a corresponding adjustment to the carrying amount of the right-of-use
asset.
1.12\u00a0 ING Group as lessor
When ING Group acts as a lessor, a distinction should be made between finance leases and operating leases.
For ING Group as a lessor, these are mainly finance leases and are therefore not included in 'Property and
equipment'. Instead, the present value of the lease payments is recognised as a receivable under Loans and
advances to customers or Loans and advances to banks. The difference between the gross receivable and
the present value of the receivable is unearned finance lease income. Lease income is recognised over the
term of the lease using the net investment method (before tax), which reflects a constant periodic rate of
return.
1.13\u00a0 Goodwill and other intangible assets
Impairment of goodwill and other non-financial assets
ING Group assesses at each reporting period whether there is an indication that a non-financial asset may be
impaired. Irrespective of whether there is an indication of impairment, intangible assets with an indefinite
useful life, including goodwill acquired in a business combination, and intangible assets not yet available for
use, are tested annually for impairment. Goodwill is allocated to groups of cash generating units (CGUs) for
the purpose of impairment testing. These groups of CGUs represent the lowest level at which goodwill is
monitored for internal management purposes. Goodwill is tested for impairment by comparing the carrying
value of the group of CGUs to the recoverable amount of that group of CGUs. Impairment of goodwill, if
applicable, is included in the statement of profit or loss in Other operating expenses and is not subsequently
reversed.
Computer software
Computer software that has been purchased or generated internally for own use is stated at cost less
amortisation and any impairment losses. Amortisation is calculated on a straight-line basis over its useful
life, which generally does not exceed five years. Amortisation is included in Other operating expenses.
1.14\u00a0 Taxation
Income tax on the result for the year consists of current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in the
statement of profit or loss but it is recognised directly in equity if the tax relates to items that are recognised
directly in equity.
Uncertain tax positions are assessed continually by ING Group and in case it is probable that there will be a
cash outflow, a current tax liability is recognised.
Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, for temporary differences arising between
the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the Consolidated statement of financial
position. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or
substantively enacted at the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred
income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are not discounted.
Deferred tax assets are recognised when it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against
which the temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred income tax is provided for temporary differences
arising from investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the timing of the reversal of the
temporary difference is controlled by ING Group and it is probable that the difference will not reverse in the
foreseeable future. The tax effects of income-tax losses available for carry forward are recognised as an
asset where it is probable that future taxable profits will be available, against which these losses can be
utilised.
Fair value remeasurements of debt and equity instruments measured at FVOCI and cash flow hedges are
recognised directly in equity. Deferred tax related to this fair value remeasurement is also recognised
directly in equity and is subsequently recognised in the statement of profit or loss together with the deferred
gain or loss.
1.15\u00a0 Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
A provision is a present obligation arising from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in
an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits. However, the timing or the amount is uncertain.
Provisions are discounted when the effect of the time value of money is significant using a pre-tax discount
rate.
Reorganisation provisions include employee termination benefits when ING Group is demonstrably
committed to either terminate the employment of current employees according to a detailed formal plan
without possibility of withdrawal, or providing termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage
voluntary redundancy.
A liability is recognised for a levy when the activity that triggers payment, as identified by the relevant
legislation, occurs. For a levy that is triggered upon reaching a minimum threshold, the liability is recognised
only upon reaching the specified minimum threshold.
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will be
confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly
within the control of ING Group, or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognised
because it is either not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation
or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured reliably. Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the
statement of financial position, but are rather disclosed in the notes unless the possibility of the outflow of
economic benefits is remote.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed
only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the
control of ING Group. Contingent assets are recognised in the statement of financial position only when
realisation of the income that arises from such an asset is virtually certain. Contingent assets are disclosed in
the notes when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The recognition and measurement of provisions is an inherently uncertain process involving using
judgement to determine when a present obligation exists and estimates regarding probability,
amounts and timing of cash flows.
ING Group may become involved in governmental, regulatory, arbitration and legal proceedings and
investigations, and may be subject to third-party claims. With or without reference to the above, ING
Group may also offer compensation to certain of its customers. Judgement is required to assess
whether a present obligation exists and to estimate the probability of an unfavourable outcome and
the amount of potential loss. The degree of uncertainty and the method of making the accounting
estimate depends on the individual case, its nature and complexity. Such cases are usually one of a
kind. For the assessment of related provisions, ING Group consults with internal and external legal
experts. Even taking into consideration legal experts\u2019 advice, the probability of an outflow of economic
benefits can still be uncertain and the provision recognised can remain sensitive to the assumptions
used. Reference is made to Note 15 'Provisions'. For proceedings where it is not possible to make a
reliable estimate of the expected financial effect, that could result from the ultimate resolution of the
proceedings, no provision is recognised, however disclosure is included in the financial statements,
where relevant. Reference is made to Note 41 'Legal proceedings'.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions for the reorganisation provision are in estimating the
amounts and timing of cash flows as the announced transformation initiatives are implemented over
a period of several years. Reference is made to Note 15 'Provisions'.
1.16\u00a0 Irrevocable Payment Commitments on contributions to SRF and DGS
ING makes contributions to the Single Resolution Fund (SRF) and Deposit Guarantee Schemes (DGS). The
annual contributions are paid in cash or, in some cases, partly using Irrevocable Payment Commitments
(IPCs) that become payable if and when called. Cash contributions are accounted for as levies as described in
section 1.15 above, while IPCs are disclosed as contingent liabilities in Note 41 'Contingent liabilities and
commitments'. Cash collateral posted on IPCs to the SRF is accounted for as an interest bearing financial
asset at amortised cost. Government bonds posted as collateral on IPCs to DGS continue to be recognised as
assets of ING as securities at amortised cost.
1.17\u00a0 Other liabilities
Defined benefit plans
The net defined benefit asset or liability recognised in the statement of financial position in respect of
defined benefit pension plans is the fair value of the plan assets less the present value of the defined benefit
obligation at the balance sheet date.
Changes in plan assets include mainly:
\u2022 Return on plan assets are recognised as staff costs in the statement of profit or loss. It is determined
using a high quality corporate bond rate (identical to the discount rate used in determining the defined
benefit obligation) at the start of the reporting period; and\u00a0
\u2022 Remeasurements which are recognised in Other comprehensive income.\u00a0
The defined benefit obligation is calculated by internal and external independent qualified actuaries through
actuarial models and calculations using the projected unit credit method. This method considers expected
future payments required to settle the obligation resulting from employee service in the current and prior
periods, discounted using a high quality corporate bond rate. Inherent in these actuarial models are
assumptions including discount rates, rates of increase in future salary and benefit levels, mortality rates,
consumer price index and the expected level of indexation. The assumptions are based on available market
data as well as management expectations and are updated regularly.\u00a0
Changes in the defined benefit obligation include mainly:
\u2022 Service cost, which is recognised as staff costs in the statement of profit or loss;\u00a0
\u2022 Interest expenses are recognised as staff costs in the Statement of profit or loss. It is determined using a
high quality corporate bond rate at the start of the period;
\u2022 Remeasurements which are recognised in Other comprehensive income (equity) and not recycled to the
Statement of profit or loss;
\u2022 Any past service cost relating to a plan amendment is recognised in profit or loss in the period of the plan
amendment; and
\u2022 Gains and losses on curtailments and settlements are recognised in the Statement of profit or loss when
the curtailment or settlement occurs.
The recognition of a net defined benefit asset in the Consolidated statement of financial position is limited to
the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plans or reductions in
future contributions to the plans.
Defined contribution plans
For defined contribution plans, ING Group pays contributions to publicly or privately administered pension
insurance plans on a mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis. ING Group has no further payment
obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are recognised as staff expenses in the
profit or loss when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash
refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.
Other post-employment obligations
Some group companies provide other post-employment benefits to former employees. The entitlement to
these benefits is usually conditional on the employee remaining in service up to retirement age and the
completion of a minimum service period. The expected costs of these benefits are accrued over the period of
employment using an accounting methodology similar to that for defined benefit pension plans.
1.18\u00a0 Treasury shares
Treasury shares (own equity instruments bought back by ING Group or its subsidiaries) are deducted from
Equity (Other reserves). No gain or loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss when purchasing,
selling or cancelling these shares. Treasury shares are not taken into account when calculating earnings per
ordinary share or dividend per ordinary share as they are not considered to be outstanding.
Treasury shares can be purchased by ING as part of a share buyback programme. If a share buyback is
executed by a broker and the agreement with the broker is irrevocable, ING has a contractual obligation to
purchase its own shares that is unavoidable once it signs the agreement with the broker. This is the moment
when ING recognises a financial liability measured at the present value of the redemption amount with a
corresponding reduction in equity (Retained earnings). During the share buyback programme, ING settles
this liability for the actual purchase price paid for the shares bought on a daily basis. Actual shares bought
back and held by ING are presented as Treasury shares within Other reserves in equity.
1.19\u00a0 Income recognition
Interest
Interest income and expense are recognised in the statement of profit or loss using the effective interest
method. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or a
financial liability and of allocating the interest income or interest expense over the relevant period. The
effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through
the expected life of the financial instrument or, when appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying
amount of the financial asset or financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, ING Group
estimates cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment
options) but does not consider future credit losses.
The calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an
integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums or discounts. Once a
financial asset or a group of similar financial assets has been written down as a result of an impairment loss,
interest income is recognised using the rate of interest used to discount the future cash flows for the
purpose of measuring the impairment loss.
Interest results on instruments classified at Amortised Cost, assets measured at FVOCI and derivatives in a
formal hedge accounting relationship are presented in \u2018Interest income (expense) using effective interest
rate method\u2019. Interest result on financial assets and liabilities voluntarily designated as at FVPL and
derivatives in so-called economic hedges and instruments designated at fair value are presented in \u2018Other
interest income (expense)\u2019. Interest result on all other financial assets and liabilities at FVTPL is recognised in
\u2018Valuation results and net trading income\u2019.
Fees and commissions
Fees and commissions are generally recognised as the service is provided. Loan commitment fees for loans
that are likely to be drawn down are deferred (together with related direct costs) and recognised as an
adjustment to the effective interest rate on the loan. Loan syndication fees are recognised as income when
the performance obligation has been satisfied based on the particular contract and ING Group has retained
no part of the loan package for itself or has retained a part at the same effective interest rate as the other
participants. Commission and fees arising from negotiating, or participating in the negotiation of, a
transaction for a third party \u2013 such as the arrangement of the acquisition of shares or other securities or the
purchase or sale of businesses \u2013 are recognised on completion of the underlying transaction. Portfolio and
other management advisory and service fees are recognised based on the applicable service contracts as
the service is provided. Asset management fees related to investment funds and investment contract fees
are recognised on a pro-rata basis over the period the service is provided. The same principle is applied for
wealth management, financial planning and custody services that are continuously provided over an
extended period of time. Fees received and paid between banks for payment services are classified as
commission income and expenses.
Lease income
The proceeds from leasing out assets under operating leases are recognised on a straight-line basis over the
life of the lease agreement. Lease payments received in respect of finance leases when ING Group is the
lessor are divided into an interest component (recognised as interest income) and a repayment component
based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the lessor\u2019s net investment in the lease.
1.20\u00a0 Expense recognition
Expenses are recognised in the statement of profit or loss as incurred or when a decrease in future economic
benefits related to a decrease in an asset or an increase in a liability has arisen that can be measured
reliably. Fee and commission expenses generally result from contracts with ING service providers, who
perform their service for ING Group\u2019s customers. Costs are generally presented as \u2018Commission expenses\u2019 if
they are specific, incremental, directly attributable and identifiable to generate commission income.\u00a0
Share-based payments
ING Group only engages in share-based payment transactions with its staff and directors. Share-based
payment expenses are recognised as a staff expense over the vesting period. A corresponding increase in
equity is recognised for equity-settled share-based payment transactions. A liability is recognised for cash-
settled share-based payment transactions. The fair value of equity-settled share-based payment
transactions are measured at the grant date, and the fair value of cash-settled share-based payment
transactions are measured at each balance sheet date. Rights granted will remain valid until the expiry date,
even if the share based payment scheme is discontinued. The rights are subject to certain conditions,
including a pre-determined continuous period of service.
1.21\u00a0 Earnings per ordinary share
Earnings per ordinary share is calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding. In calculating the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding:
\u2022 Own shares held by group companies are deducted from the total number of ordinary shares in issue;\u00a0
\u2022 The computation is based on daily averages; and
\u2022 In case of exercised warrants, the exercise date is taken into consideration.\u00a0
Diluted earnings per share data are computed as if all convertible instruments outstanding at year-end were
exercised at the beginning of the period. It is also assumed that ING Group uses the assumed proceeds thus
received to buy its own shares against the average market price in the financial year. The net increase in the
number of shares resulting from the exercise is added to the average number of shares used to calculate
diluted earnings per share.
1.22\u00a0 Statement of cash flows
The statement of cash flows is prepared in accordance with the indirect method, distinguishing cash flows
from operating, investing and financing activities. In the net cash flow from operating activities, the result
before tax is adjusted for those items in the statement of profit or loss and changes in items per the
statement of financial position, which do not result in actual cash flows during the year.
For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, Cash and cash equivalents include deposits from banks and
loans and advances to banks that are on demand. Furthermore, it includes treasury bills and other eligible
bills shorter than three months. Investments qualify as a cash equivalent if they are readily convertible to a
known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Cash flows arising from foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the
exchange rates at the date of the cash flows.
The net cash flow shown in respect of Loans and advances to customers relates only to transactions
involving actual payments or receipts. The Addition to loan loss provision, which is deducted from the item
Loans and advances to customers in the statement of financial position, has been adjusted accordingly from
the result before tax and is shown separately in the statement of cash flows.
The difference between the Net cash flow in accordance with the statement of cash flows and the change
between the opening and closing balance of Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position
is due to exchange rate differences and is presented separately in the cash flow statement.
Liabilities arising from financing activities are debt securities, lease liabilities and subordinated loans.
As at 31 December 2024 ING Groep N.V. has issued USD 8,750 million (2023: USD 7,750 million; 2022: USD
6,750 million) Perpetual Additional Tier 1 Contingent Convertible Capital Securities which can, in accordance
with their terms and conditions, convert by operation of law into ordinary shares if the conditions (when the
Group CET1 ratio has fallen below 7.00%) to such a conversion are fulfilled. As a result of this conversion, the
issued share capital can increase by up to 982 million (2023: 864 million; 2022: 750 million) ordinary shares.
Reference is made to Note 18 'Subordinated loans'.
Ordinary shares

1.4\u00a0 Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements in the
process of applying its accounting policies and to use estimates and assumptions. The estimates and
assumptions affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities and the amounts of the contingent
assets and contingent liabilities at the balance sheet date, as well as reported income and expenses for the
year. The actual outcome may differ from these estimates. The process of setting assumptions is subject to
internal control procedures and approvals.
ING Group has identified areas that require management to make significant judgements and use critical
accounting estimates and assumptions based on the information and financial data that may or may not
change in future periods. These areas are:
\u2022 Loan loss provisions (financial assets) (refer to Note 1.5.6 \u2018Impairment of financial assets');
\u2022 The determination of the fair values of financial assets and liabilities (refer to Note 1.5.3 for \u2018Fair values of
financial assets and liabilities\u2019);
\u2022 Investment in associate - assessment of additional impairment losses or reversal of previous impairment
losses (refer to Note 1.10 \u2018Investments in associates and joint ventures); and
\u2022 Provisions (refer to Note 1.15 \u2018Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets\u2019).
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
\u2022 Even if market prices are available, when markets are less liquid there may be a range of prices for
the same security from different price sources. Selecting the most appropriate price requires
judgement and could result in different estimates of fair value.\u00a0
\u2022 Valuation techniques are subjective in nature and significant judgement is involved in establishing
fair values for certain financial assets and liabilities. Valuation techniques involve various
assumptions regarding pricing factors. The use of different valuation techniques and assumptions
could produce significantly different estimates of fair value.\u00a0
\u2022 Price testing is performed to assess whether the process of valuation has led to an appropriate fair
value of the position and to minimise the potential risks of economic losses due to incorrect or
misused models.
\u2022 Assessing whether a market is active, and whether an input is observable and significant, requires
judgement. ING Group categorises its financial instruments that are either measured in the
statement of financial position at fair value or of which the fair value is disclosed, into a three-level
hierarchy based on the observability and significance of the valuation inputs. The use of different
approaches to assess whether a market is active, whether an input is observable, and whether an
unobservable input is significant could produce different classification within the fair value
hierarchy as well as potentially different deferral of the Day One Profit or Loss.
\u2022 Reference is made to Note 34 'Fair value of assets and liabilities' and to the \u2018Market risk\u2019 paragraph
in the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report for the basis of the determination of the fair
value of financial instruments and related sensitivities.
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The calculation of ECL requires a number of judgements and estimates. In particular:
\u2022 ING Group makes various assumptions about the risk of default, the credit loss rates in case of a
default and expected future cash flows. For collective provisions, ING Group applies significant
judgement when estimating modelled parameters such as PD, LGD and EAD, including the
selection and calibration of relevant models. For Stage 3 individual provisioning, the determination
and probabilities of restructuring and recovery scenarios, as well as the amount and timing of
expected future cash flows, may be particularly subjective.
\u2022 Forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios used in impairment assessments are uncertain in
nature. The use of alternate forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios can produce significantly
different estimates of ECL. This is demonstrated in the sensitivity analysis in the \u2018Risk Management\u2019
section of the annual report, where the un-weighted ECL under each of the three scenarios for
some significant portfolios is disclosed.
\u2022 When determining whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly (criteria
for identifying a significant increase in credit risk), ING Group considers reasonable and
supportable information to compare the risk of default occurring at reporting date with the risk of a
default occurring at initial recognition of the financial asset. Whilst judgement is required in
applying a PD rating to each financial asset, there is significant judgement used in determining the
Stage allocation PD banding thresholds. The process of comparing a financial asset\u2019s PD with the
PD banding thresholds determines its ECL Stage. Assets in Stage 1 are allocated a 12-month ECL,
and those in Stage 2 are allocated a lifetime ECL, and the difference is often significant. As such,
the judgement made in assigning financial asset PDs and the PD banding thresholds constitutes a
significant judgement. Analysis of the sensitivity associated with the assessment of a significant
increase in credit risk is presented in the \u2018Risk Management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
\u2022 Judgement is exercised in management\u2019s evaluation of whether there is objective evidence that
exposures are credit-impaired.
\u2022 To reflect the risks that are not properly captured by the ECL models (including climate risk), a
number of management adjustments to the model-based ECL were necessary as at 31 December
2024, which required significant judgement. Reference is made to the \u2018Management adjustments
applied this reporting period\u2019 paragraph in the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
Identification of impairment indicators as well as indicators of potential reversal of previous
impairments of ING Group\u2019s investment in TMBThanachart Bank Public Company Limited (hereafter:
TTB), an associate, requires significant judgement. When there is objective evidence of impairment or
indicators that prior period impairment losses no longer exist or may have decreased, value in use
(VIU) needs to be determined. Estimation of VIU involves significant estimates and management
assumptions. See Note 8 \u2018Investments in associates and joint ventures\u2019.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The recognition and measurement of provisions is an inherently uncertain process involving using
judgement to determine when a present obligation exists and estimates regarding probability,
amounts and timing of cash flows.
ING Group may become involved in governmental, regulatory, arbitration and legal proceedings and
investigations, and may be subject to third-party claims. With or without reference to the above, ING
Group may also offer compensation to certain of its customers. Judgement is required to assess
whether a present obligation exists and to estimate the probability of an unfavourable outcome and
the amount of potential loss. The degree of uncertainty and the method of making the accounting
estimate depends on the individual case, its nature and complexity. Such cases are usually one of a
kind. For the assessment of related provisions, ING Group consults with internal and external legal
experts. Even taking into consideration legal experts\u2019 advice, the probability of an outflow of economic
benefits can still be uncertain and the provision recognised can remain sensitive to the assumptions
used. Reference is made to Note 15 'Provisions'. For proceedings where it is not possible to make a
reliable estimate of the expected financial effect, that could result from the ultimate resolution of the
proceedings, no provision is recognised, however disclosure is included in the financial statements,
where relevant. Reference is made to Note 41 'Legal proceedings'.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions for the reorganisation provision are in estimating the

1.5\u00a0 Financial instruments
ING Group applies IFRS 9 \u2018Financial Instruments\u2019 to the recognition, classification and measurement, and
derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities and the impairment of financial assets. ING Group
applies the requirements of IAS 39 \u2018Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement\u2019 for hedge
accounting purposes.
1.5.1\u00a0 Recognition and derecognition of financial instruments
Recognition of financial assets
Financial assets are recognised in the balance sheet when ING Group becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument. For a regular way purchase or sale of a financial asset, trade date and
settlement date accounting is applied, depending on the classification of the financial asset.
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have
expired or where ING Group has transferred the rights to receive the cash flows from the financial asset or
assumed an obligation to pass on the cash flows and has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards
of the asset. If ING Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of
a financial asset, it derecognises the financial asset if it no longer has control over the asset. The difference
between the carrying amount of a financial asset that has been derecognised and the consideration
received is recognised in profit or loss.
Recognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are recognised on the date that the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions
of the instrument.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or
expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished and
the consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss.
1.5.2\u00a0 Classification and measurement of financial instruments
Financial assets
ING Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
\u2022 those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI, or through profit or loss); and
\u2022 those to be measured at amortised cost (AC).
At initial recognition, ING Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial
asset not at FVPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL) are expensed in the
statement of profit or loss.
Financial assets \u2013 Debt instruments
The classification depends on the entity\u2019s business model for managing the financial assets and the
contractual terms of the cash flows at initial recognition.
Business models
Business models are classified as Hold to Collect (HtC), Hold to Collect and Sell (HtC&S) or Other depending on
how a portfolio of financial instruments as a whole is managed. ING Group\u2019s business models are based on
the existing management structure of the bank, and refined based on an analysis of how businesses are
evaluated and reported, how their specific business risks are managed, and on historic and expected future
sales. Sales are permissible in a HtC business model when these are due to an increase in credit risk, take
place close to the maturity date (where the proceeds from the sales approximate the collection of the
remaining contractual cash flows), are insignificant in value (both individually and in aggregate) or are
infrequent.
Contractual cash flows Solely Payments of Principal and Interest (SPPI)
The contractual cash flows of a financial asset are assessed to determine whether they represent SPPI.
Interest includes consideration for the time value of money, credit risk and for other basic lending risks such
as consideration for liquidity risk and costs associated with holding the financial asset for a particular period
of time. In addition, interest can include a profit margin that is consistent with a basic lending arrangement.
Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their
cash flows are SPPI.
In assessing whether the contractual cash flows are SPPI, ING Group considers the contractual terms of the
instrument. This includes assessing whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could
change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not meet this condition.
Based on the entity\u2019s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the
cash flows, there are three measurement categories into which ING Group classifies its debt instruments:
\u2022 Amortised Cost (AC):
Debt instruments that are held for collection of contractual cash flows under a HtC business model where
those cash flows represent SPPI are measured at AC. Interest income from these financial assets is
included in Interest income using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method. Any gain or loss arising on
derecognition is recognised directly in profit or loss. Impairment losses are presented as a separate line
item in the statement of profit or loss.
\u2022 FVOCI:
Debt instruments that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets
under a HtC&S business model, where the assets\u2019 cash flows represent SPPI, are measured at FVOCI.
Movements in the carrying amount are recognised in OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains
or losses, interest revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit or loss.
When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is
reclassified from equity to profit or loss and presented in Investment income or Other net income, based
on the specific characteristics of the business model. Interest income from these financial assets is
included in Interest income using the EIR method. Impairment losses are presented as a separate line
item in the statement of profit or loss.
\u2022 FVPL:
Debt instruments that do not meet the criteria for AC or FVOCI are measured at FVPL. This includes debt
instruments that are held-for-trading (presented separately as Trading assets) and all other debt
instruments that do not meet the criteria for AC or FVOCI (presented separately as Mandatorily at FVPL).
ING Group may in some cases, on initial recognition, irrevocably designate a financial asset as classified
and measured at FVPL. This is the case where doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting
mismatch that would otherwise arise on assets measured at AC or FVOCI. Fair value movements on
trading securities, trading loans and deposits (mainly reverse repo's) are presented fully within valuation
result and net trading income. This also includes interest. The interest arising on financial assets
designated as at FVPL is recognised in profit or loss and presented within Other interest income or Other
interest expense in the period in which it arises. The interest arising on a debt instrument that is part of a
hedge relationship, but not subject to hedge accounting, is recognised in profit or loss and presented
within Other interest income or Other interest expense in the period in which it arises.
ING Group reclassifies debt instruments if, and only if, its business model for managing those financial assets
changes. Such changes in business models are expected to be very infrequent. There have been no
reclassifications during the reporting period.
Financial assets \u2013 Equity instruments
All equity investments are measured at fair value. ING Group applies the fair value through OCI option to
investments which are considered strategic, consisting of investments that add value to ING Group\u2019s core
banking activities.
There is no subsequent recycling of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of
investments if elected to be classified and measured as FVOCI. However, the cumulative gain or loss is
transferred within equity to retained earnings on derecognition of such equity instruments. Dividends from
such investments continue to be recognised in profit or loss as Investment income when ING Group\u2019s right to
receive payments is established. Impairment requirements are not applicable to equity investments
classified and measured as FVOCI.
Other remaining equity investments are measured at FVPL. All changes in the fair value are recognised in
Valuation result and Net trading income in the Consolidated statement of profit or loss.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified and subsequently measured at AC, except for financial guarantee contracts,
derivatives and liabilities designated at FVPL. Financial liabilities classified and measured at FVPL are
presented as follows:
\u2022 the amount of change in the fair value that is attributable to changes in own credit risk of the liability
designated at FVPL is presented in OCI. Upon derecognition this Debit Valuation Adjustment (DVA) impact
does not recycle from OCI to profit or loss;\u00a0
\u2022 the remaining amount of change in the fair value is presented in profit or loss in \u2018Valuation results and
net trading income\u2019. Interest on financial liabilities at FVPL is also recognised in the valuation result,
except for items voluntarily designated as FVPL, for which interest is presented within \u2018Other interest
income (expense)'.
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires ING Group to make specified payments to
reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in
accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. Such a contract is initially recognised at
fair value and is subsequently measured at the higher of (a) the amount determined in accordance with
impairment provisions of IFRS 9 \u2018Financial instruments\u2019 (see section 'Impairment of financial assets') and (b)
the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, cumulative amortisation recognised in accordance
with the revenue recognition principle of IFRS 15 \u2018Revenue from contracts with customers\u2019.
Repurchase transactions and reverse repurchase transactions
Securities sold subject to repurchase agreements (repo's), securities lending and similar agreements
continue to be recognised in the Consolidated statement of financial position. The counterparty liability is
measured at FVPL (designated) and included in Other financial liabilities at FVPL if the asset is measured at
FVPL. Otherwise, the counterparty liability is included in Deposits from banks, Customer deposits, or Trading,
as appropriate.
Securities purchased under agreements to resell (reverse repos), securities borrowings and similar
agreements are not recognised in the Consolidated statement of financial position. The consideration paid to
purchase securities is recognised as Loans and advances to customers, Loans and advances to banks, Other
financial assets at FVPL or Trading assets, as appropriate. The difference between the sale and repurchase
price is treated as interest and amortised over the life of the agreement using the effective interest method
for instruments that are not measured at FVPL.
1.5.3\u00a0 Fair values of financial assets and liabilities
All financial assets and liabilities are recognised initially at fair value. The fair value of a financial instrument
on initial recognition is generally its transaction price (that is, the fair value of the consideration given or
received). However, if there is a material difference between the transaction price and the fair value of
financial instruments whose fair value is based on a valuation technique using significant unobservable
inputs, the entire 'day one' difference (a \u2018Day One Profit or Loss\u2019) is deferred. ING Group defers the Day One
Profit or Loss relating to financial instruments classified as Level 3 and financial instruments with material
unobservable inputs into CVA which are not necessarily classified as Level 3. The deferred Day One Profit or
Loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss over the life of the transaction until the transaction
matures, or until the significant unobservable inputs become observable, or until the significant
unobservable inputs become non-significant. In all other cases, ING Group recognises the difference as a gain
or loss at inception.
Subsequently, except for financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost, all the other
financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It assumes that market
participants would use and take into account the characteristics of the asset or liability when pricing the
asset or liability. Fair values of financial assets and liabilities are based on unadjusted quoted market prices
where available. Such quoted market prices are primarily obtained from exchange prices for listed financial
instruments. Where an exchange price is not available, quoted prices in an active market may be obtained
from independent market vendors, brokers, or market makers. In general, positions are valued at the bid
price for a long position and at the offer price for a short position or are valued at the price within the bid-
offer spread that is most representative of fair value in the circumstances. In some cases where positions are
marked at mid-market prices, a fair value adjustment is calculated.
For certain financial assets and liabilities, quoted market prices are not available. For such instruments, fair
value is determined using valuation techniques. These range from discounting of cash flows to various
valuation models, where relevant pricing factors including the market price of underlying reference
instruments, market parameters (volatilities, correlations and credit ratings), and customer behaviour are
taken into account. ING Group maximises the use of market observable inputs and minimises the use of
unobservable inputs in determining the fair value. It can be subjective dependent on the significance of the
unobservable input to the overall valuation. All valuation techniques used are subject to internal review and
approval. Most data used in these valuation techniques are validated on a daily basis when possible.
When a group of financial assets and liabilities are managed on the basis of their net risk exposures, the fair
value of a group of financial assets and liabilities are measured on a net portfolio level.
To include credit risk in fair value, ING Group applies both Credit and Debit Valuation Adjustments (CVA, DVA,
also known as Bilateral Valuation Adjustments or BVA). Own issued debt and structured notes that are
designated at FVPL are adjusted for ING Group\u2019s own credit risk by means of a DVA. To include the funding
risk, ING Group applies an additional \u2018Funding Valuation Adjustment\u2019 (FVA) to the uncollateralised derivatives
based on the market price of funding liquidity. ING Group also applies to certain positions other valuation
adjustments to arrive at the fair value, such as Bid-Offer adjustments, Model Risk Adjustments and Collateral
Valuation Adjustments (CollVA).
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
\u2022 Even if market prices are available, when markets are less liquid there may be a range of prices for
the same security from different price sources. Selecting the most appropriate price requires
judgement and could result in different estimates of fair value.\u00a0
\u2022 Valuation techniques are subjective in nature and significant judgement is involved in establishing
fair values for certain financial assets and liabilities. Valuation techniques involve various
assumptions regarding pricing factors. The use of different valuation techniques and assumptions
could produce significantly different estimates of fair value.\u00a0
\u2022 Price testing is performed to assess whether the process of valuation has led to an appropriate fair
value of the position and to minimise the potential risks of economic losses due to incorrect or
misused models.
\u2022 Assessing whether a market is active, and whether an input is observable and significant, requires
judgement. ING Group categorises its financial instruments that are either measured in the
statement of financial position at fair value or of which the fair value is disclosed, into a three-level
hierarchy based on the observability and significance of the valuation inputs. The use of different
approaches to assess whether a market is active, whether an input is observable, and whether an
unobservable input is significant could produce different classification within the fair value
hierarchy as well as potentially different deferral of the Day One Profit or Loss.
\u2022 Reference is made to Note 34 'Fair value of assets and liabilities' and to the \u2018Market risk\u2019 paragraph
in the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report for the basis of the determination of the fair
value of financial instruments and related sensitivities.
1.5.4\u00a0 Derivatives and hedge accounting
IFRS 9 includes an accounting policy choice to defer the adoption of IFRS 9 hedge accounting and to continue
with hedge accounting under IAS 39. ING Group decided to exercise this accounting policy choice and did not
adopt IFRS 9 hedge accounting as of 1 January 2018. Furthermore, ING Group applies fair value hedge
accounting for portfolio hedges of interest rate risk (macro fair value hedges) in accordance with the EU
carve-out version of IAS 39.
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and
are subsequently measured at fair value. Fair values are obtained from quoted market prices in active
markets, including market transactions and valuation techniques (such as discounted cash flow models and
option pricing models), as appropriate. All derivatives are carried as assets when their fair value is positive
and as liabilities when their fair value is negative. Fair value movements on derivatives are presented in profit
or loss in 'Valuation result and net trading income', except for derivatives in either a formal hedge
relationship or so-called economic hedges that are not in a formal hedge accounting relationship where a
component is presented separately in interest result in line with ING Group\u2019s risk management strategy.
Embedded derivatives are separated from financial liabilities and other non-financial contracts and
accounted for as a derivative if, and only if:
1. the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to the
economic characteristics and risks of the host contract;
2. a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a
derivative; and
3. the combined instrument is not measured at fair value with changes in fair value reported in profit or loss.
If an embedded derivative is separated, the host contract is accounted for as a similar free-standing
contract.
The method of recognising the resulting fair value gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is
designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. ING Group designates
certain derivatives as hedges of the fair value of recognised assets or liabilities or firm commitments (fair
value hedge), hedges of highly probable future cash flows attributable to a recognised asset or liability or a
forecast transaction (cash flow hedge), or hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation. Hedge
accounting is used for derivatives designated in this way provided certain criteria are met.
At the inception of the transaction, ING Group documents the relationship between hedging instruments and
hedged items, its risk management objective, together with the methods selected to assess hedge
effectiveness. ING Group also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis,
of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in
fair values or cash flows of the hedged items.
Fair value hedges
Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recognised in
the statement of profit or loss, together with fair value adjustments to the hedged item attributable to the
hedged risk. If the hedge relationship no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the cumulative
adjustment of the hedged item is, in the case of interest-bearing instruments, amortised through the
statement of profit or loss over the remaining term of the original hedge or recognised directly when the
hedged item is derecognised. For non-interest bearing instruments, the cumulative adjustment of the
hedged item is recognised in the statement of profit or loss only when the hedged item is derecognised.
Cash flow hedges
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow
hedges are recognised in the Other Comprehensive Income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective
portion is recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss. Amounts accumulated in the Other
Comprehensive Income are recycled to the statement of profit or loss in the periods in which the hedged
item affects net result. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, or when a hedge no longer meets the
criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in the Other Comprehensive Income at
that time remains in the Other Comprehensive Income and is recognised when the forecast transaction is
ultimately recognised in the statement of profit or loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to
occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in the Other Comprehensive Income is transferred
immediately to the statement of profit or loss.
Net investment hedges
Hedges of net investments in foreign operations are accounted for in a similar way to cash flow hedges. Any
gain or loss on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge is recognised in the
Other Comprehensive Income and the gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised
immediately in the statement of profit or loss. Gains and losses accumulated in the Other Comprehensive
Income are included in the statement of profit or loss when the foreign operation is disposed.
Benchmark rate reform \u2013 specific policies for hedges directly affected by the benchmark rate
reform
As explained in the \u2018Impact of the benchmark rate reform\u2019 paragraph of the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section, a
fundamental review of important interest rate benchmarks has been carried out, and is still ongoing for
some of them (for instance, WIBOR).
Given that the benchmark rate reform may have various accounting implications, the IASB has undertaken a
two-phase project. Phase 1 (issued in 2019) addresses those issues that affect financial reporting before the
replacement of an existing benchmark. Phase 2 (issued in 2020) focuses on issues that may affect financial
reporting when the existing benchmark rate is reformed or replaced.
Phase 1 amendments to IFRS allow ING Group to apply a set of temporary exceptions to continue hedge
accounting even when there is uncertainty about contractual cash flows arising from the reform. Under
these temporary exceptions, interbank-offered rates are assumed to continue unaltered for the purposes of
hedge accounting until such time as the uncertainty is resolved.
More specifically, the following temporary reliefs are part of the Phase 1 amendments:
\u2022 Highly probable requirement for cash flow hedges
When determining whether a forecast transaction is highly probable, it is assumed that the interest rate
benchmark on which the hedged cash flows are based is not altered as a result of the reform.
\u2022 Prospective assessment of hedge effectiveness
When performing the prospective assessment it is assumed that the interest rate benchmark on which
the hedged cash flows are based is not altered as a result of the reform.
\u2022 Retrospective assessment of hedge effectiveness
When performing the retrospective assessment, hedges are allowed to pass the assessment even if
actual results are outside the 80-125% range, during the period of uncertainty arising from the
benchmark rate reform.
\u2022 Designation of a component of an item as a hedged item
For hedges of the benchmark component of interest rate risk affected by the reform, the separately
identifiable requirement only needs to be demonstrated at the inception of such hedging relationships
(including macro hedges).
The amendments are relevant given that ING Group hedges and applies hedge accounting to the benchmark
interest rate exposure part of the benchmark rate reform. ING Group hedges are being progressively
amended, where necessary, to incorporate the new benchmark rates. Temporary exceptions under Phase 1
continued to be relevant for ING Group as at 31 December 2024 (mainly for WIBOR hedges).
ING Group will completely cease to apply the amendments when this uncertainty is no longer present or
when the hedging relationship is discontinued. Refer to note \u2018Risk management/ Impact of the benchmark
rate reform\u2019 for the disclosures relating to the application of the amendments as part of Phase 1.
Phase 2 amendments require that hedge accounting continues on transition to risk free rates provided that
the modifications made to financial instruments are those necessary to implement the benchmark rate
reform and that the new basis for calculating cash flows is \u2018economically equivalent\u2019 to the previous basis.
Particularly, Phase 2 amendments allow the continuation of hedging relationships, subject to amending their
documentation to reflect changes in hedged instruments, hedging instruments, hedged risk, and/or the
method for measuring effectiveness during the transition to the new benchmark rates. By applying these
mandatory amendments, ING Group avoids hedge accounting discontinuations when modifying both
hedged items and hedging instruments (and related hedge documentation) as a consequence of the
benchmark rate reform that would otherwise be required in the absence of Phase 2 amendments. During
2024, Phase 2 continued to be relevant for ING Group when ING actually transitioned its financial
instruments (designated in hedge accounting relationships) to the new benchmark rates.
More specifically, the following temporary reliefs are part of the Phase 2 amendments:
Relief from discontinuing hedging relationships
\u2022 Amendments in the hedge documentation as a consequence of changes required by the benchmark rate
reform do not result in the discontinuation of the hedge relationship nor the designation of a new hedge
relationship. The changes can be in the form of designating an alternative benchmark rate as a hedged
risk, the description of the hedging instrument, the description of the hedged item, or the method to
measure the effectiveness.
\u2022 When the hedged item is amended as a consequence of the benchmark rate reform (or if the hedge has
previously been discontinued), amounts accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve are deemed to be
based on the Risk-Free Rate (RFR). This results in the release of the cash flow hedge reserve to profit or
loss in the same period or periods in which the hedged cash flows that are now based on the RFR affect
profit or loss.
\u2022 When the items within a designated group of hedged items are amended as a consequence of the
benchmark rate reform, the hedging strategy remains and is not discontinued. As items within the
hedged group transition at different times from the benchmark rates to RFRs, they are transferred to sub-
groups of instruments that reference RFRs as the hedged risk. The existing benchmark rates remain
designated as the hedged risk for the other sub-group of hedged items, until they are also updated to
reference the new RFR. The usual hedge accounting requirements are applied to the hedge relationship in
its entirety.
\u2022 For the assessment of retrospective hedge effectiveness, the cumulative fair value changes may be reset
to zero when the exception to the retrospective assessment of the Phase 1 reliefs ends. This decision is
made separately for each hedging relationship (i.e., on a hedge-by-hedge basis).
\u2022 Temporary relief from having to meet the separately identifiable requirement: a RFR is considered a
separately identifiable risk component if it is reasonably expected to meet the separately identifiable
requirement within 24 months from the date it is first designated as a non-contractually specified risk
component (i.e. when the entity first designates the RFR as a non-contractually specified risk
component). This relief applies to each RFR on a rate-by-rate basis.
As explained above, Phase 1 and Phase 2 benchmark rate amendments to IFRS provide specific hedge
accounting reliefs that allow hedge accounting relationships to continue when the benchmark rate reform is
ongoing. Phase 1 reliefs cease to apply when uncertainty arising from the benchmark rate reform is no
longer present with respect to the timing and amount of the benchmark rate-based cash flows of the
relevant instruments, or when the hedging instrument is discontinued. It is ING Group\u2019s policy to cease to
apply Phase 1 reliefs when the applicable contract (either hedging instrument or hedged item) is actually
modified. As a result, for these hedge accounting relationships the applicable Phase 1 reliefs ceased to apply
and Phase 2 became applicable. Refer to note \u2018Risk management/Impact of the benchmark rate reform\u2019 for
the disclosures relating to the application of the amendments as part of Phase 2.
Non-trading derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting
Derivative instruments that are used by ING Group as part of its risk management strategies, but which do
not qualify for hedge accounting under ING Group\u2019s accounting policies, are presented as non-trading
derivatives. Non-trading derivatives are measured at fair value with changes in the fair value taken to the
statement of profit or loss.
1.5.5\u00a0 Offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset, and the net amount is reported in the statement of
financial position, when ING Group has a current legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts
and intends to either settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Offsetting is applied to derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements and cash pooling
agreements. A significant portion of offsetting is applied to derivatives and related cash margin balances,
which are either directly cleared through central clearing parties or cleared through clearing members of
central clearing parties. For more information, reference is made to Note 39 \u2018Offsetting financial assets and
liabilities\u2019.
1.5.6\u00a0 Impairment of financial assets
An Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model is applied to financial assets accounted for at AC or FVOCI such as loans,
debt securities and lease receivables, as well as off-balance sheet items such as undrawn loan
commitments, certain financial guarantees issued, and undrawn committed revolving credit facilities. Under
the ECL model, ING Group calculates the ECL by considering on a discounted basis the cash shortfall it would
incur in case of a default and multiplying the shortfall by the probability of a default occurring. The ECL is the
sum of the probability-weighted outcomes. The ECL estimates are unbiased and include reasonable and
supportable information about past events, current conditions, and forecasts of future economic conditions.
ECL is recognised on the balance sheet as loan loss provisions (LLP).
Three-stage approach
Financial assets are classified in one of the below three stages at each reporting date. A financial asset can
move between Stages during its lifetime. The Stages are based on changes in credit quality since initial
recognition and defined as follows:
\u2022 Stage 1
Financial assets that have not had a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition (i.e. no Stage
2 or 3 triggers apply). Assets are classified as Stage 1 upon initial recognition (with the exception of
purchased or originated credit impaired (POCI) assets) and ECL is determined by the probability that a
default occurs in the next 12 months (12 months ECL);
\u2022 Stage 2
Financial assets showing a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. For assets in Stage 2,
ECL reflects an estimate on the credit losses over the remaining maturity of the asset (lifetime ECL); or
\u2022 Stage 3
Financial assets that are credit-impaired. Also for these assets, ECL is determined over the remaining
maturity of the asset.
Significant increase in credit risk
ING Group established a framework, incorporating quantitative and qualitative indicators, to identify and
assess significant increases in credit risk (SICR). This is used to determine the appropriate ECL Stage for each
financial asset. Reference is made to the \u2018Criteria for identifying a significant increase in credit risk (SICR)\u2019 in
the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
An asset that is in Stage 2 will move back to Stage 1 when none of the above criteria are in place anymore.
However, if the asset was moved to Stage 2 based on the forbearance status, then the asset stays in Stage 2
for at least 24 months. If the asset was classified as Stage 2 due to the '30 days past due' trigger, then the
asset is moved back to Stage 1 only after three months from when the trigger no longer applies.
Credit-impaired financial assets (Stage 3)
Financial assets are assessed for credit-impairment at each reporting date and more frequently when
circumstances warrant further assessment. Evidence of credit-impairment includes arrears of over 90 days
on any material credit obligation, indications that the borrower is experiencing significant financial difficulty,
a breach of contract, bankruptcy or distressed restructuring. The definition of 'credit-impaired' under IFRS 9
(Stage 3) is aligned with the definition of 'default' used by ING Group for internal risk management purposes,
which is also the definition used for regulatory purposes.
An asset (other than a POCI asset) that is in Stage 3 will move back to Stage 2 when, as at the reporting date,
it is no longer considered to be credit-impaired, subject to certain probation periods. The asset will migrate
back to Stage 1 when its credit risk at the reporting date is no longer considered to have increased
significantly since initial recognition.
Macroeconomic scenarios
ING Group has established a quarterly process whereby forward-looking macroeconomics scenarios and
probability weightings are developed for the purpose of ECL. ING Group applies data predominantly from a
leading service provider enriched with the internal ING Group view. A baseline, up-scenario and down-
scenario are determined to reflect an unbiased and probability-weighted ECL amount. As a baseline
scenario, ING Group applies the market-neutral view combining consensus forecasts for economic variables
such as unemployment rates, GDP growth, house prices, commodity prices, and short-term interest rates.
Applying market consensus in the baseline scenario ensures unbiased estimates of the expected credit
losses.
The alternative scenarios are based on observed forecast errors in the past, adjusted for the risks affecting
the economy today and the forecast horizon. The probabilities assigned are based on the likelihoods of
observing the three scenarios and are derived from confidence intervals on a probability distribution. The
forecasts for the economic variables are adjusted on a quarterly basis.
The probability weights applied to each of the three scenarios
ING Group uses three macroeconomic scenarios when determining IFRS 9 ECL (baseline, upside and
downside). The management approach used to determine the weights of each scenario and in selecting the
parts of the distribution of forecast errors from which the weights are derived is disclosed in the 'Alternative
Scenarios and Probability Weights' section. Additionally, this approach is detailed in the sensitivity analysis
within the 'Risk Management' section of the Annual Report.
Measurement of ECL
ING Group applies a collective assessment method to measure ECL for Stage 1, Stage 2, and certain Stage 3
assets. Other credit-impaired assets subject to ECL measurement apply the individual assessment method.
Collectively assessed assets (Stages 1 to 3)
For collective assessed assets, ING Group applies a model-based approach. ECL is determined by, expressed
simplistically, multiplying the probability of default (PD) with the loss given default (LGD) and exposure at
default (EAD), adjusted for the time value of money. Assets that are collectively assessed are grouped on the
basis of similar credit-risk characteristics, taking into account the loan type, industry, geographic location,
collateral type, past due status and other relevant factors. These characteristics are relevant to the
estimation of future cash flows for groups of such assets by being indicative of the debtors\u2019 ability to pay all
amounts due according to the contractual terms of the assets being evaluated and the loss in case the
debtor is not able to pay all amounts due.
For Stage 3 assets, the PD equals 100% and the LGD and EAD represent a lifetime view of the losses based on
characteristics of defaulted facilities.
For the measurement of ECL, ING Group\u2019s expected credit loss models (PD, LGD, EAD) used for regulatory
purposes have been adjusted. These adjustments include removing embedded prudential conservatism
(such as floors) and converted through-the-cycle estimates to point-in-time estimates. The models assess
ECL on the basis of forward-looking macroeconomic forecasts and other inputs. For most financial assets,
the expected life is limited to the remaining maturity. For overdrafts and certain revolving credit facilities,
such as credit cards, the maturity is estimated based on historical data as these do not have a fixed term or
repayment schedule.
Individually assessed assets (Stage 3)
ING Group estimates ECL for individually significant credit-impaired financial assets within Stage 3 on an
individual basis. ECL for these Individually assessed assets are determined using the discounted expected
future cash flow method. To determine expected future cash flows, one or more scenarios are used. Each
scenario is analysed based on the probability of occurrence and includes forward-looking information.
In determining the scenarios, all relevant factors impacting the future cash flows are taken into account.
These include expected developments in credit quality, business and economic forecasts, and estimates of if/
when recoveries will occur, taking into account ING Group\u2019s restructuring/recovery strategy.
The best estimate of ECL is calculated as the weighted-average of the shortfall (gross carrying amount
minus discounted expected future cash flow using the original EIR) per scenario, based on best estimates of
expected future cash flows. Recoveries can arise from, among other things, the repayment of the loan,
collateral recovery and the sale of the asset. Cash flows from collateral and other credit enhancements are
included in the measurement of ECL of the related financial asset when it is part of or integral to the
contractual terms of the financial asset and the credit enhancement is not recognised separately. For the
individual assessment, with granular (company- or asset-specific) scenarios, specific factors can have a
larger impact on the future cash flows than macroeconomic factors.
When a financial asset is credit-impaired, interest income is no longer recognised based on the gross
carrying amount of the asset. Instead, interest income is calculated by applying the original effective
interest rate to the amortised cost of the asset, which is the gross carrying amount less the related loan loss
provision.
Purchased or Originated Credit Impaired (POCI) assets
POCI assets are financial assets that are credit-impaired on initial recognition. Impairment on a POCI asset is
determined based on lifetime ECL from initial recognition. POCI assets are recognised initially at an amount net
of ECL and are measured at AC using a credit-adjusted effective interest rate. In subsequent periods, any
changes to the estimated lifetime ECL are recognised in profit or loss. Favourable changes are recognised as an
impairment gain if the lifetime ECL at the reporting date is lower than the estimated lifetime ECL at origination.
Write-off and debt forgiveness
Loans and debt securities are written off (either partially or in full) when there is no reasonable expectation
of recovery and/or collectability of amounts due. The following events can lead to a write-off:
\u2022 After a restructuring has been completed and there is a high improbability of recovery of part of the
remaining loan exposure (including partial debt forgiveness);
\u2022 In a bankruptcy liquidation scenario;
\u2022 After divestment or sale of a credit facility at a discount; and
\u2022 Specific fraud cases with no recourse options.
When a loan is uncollectable, it is written off against the related loan loss provision. Subsequent recoveries of
amounts previously written off are recognised in \u2018Addition to loan loss provisions\u2019 in the Consolidated
statement of profit or loss.
Debt forgiveness (or debt settlement) involves write-off, but also involves the forgiveness of a legal
obligation, in whole or in part. This means that ING Group forfeits the legal right to recover the debt. As a
result, the financial asset needs to be derecognised.
Presentation of ECL
ECL for financial assets measured at AC is deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. For debt
instruments at FVOCI, the ECL is recognised in OCI, instead of deducting it from the carrying amount of the
asset. ECL also reflects any credit losses related to the portion of the loan commitment that is expected to
be drawn down over the remaining life of the instrument. The ECL on issued financial guarantee contracts, in
scope of IFRS 9 and not measured at FVPL, is recognised as liabilities and presented in Other provisions. ECL
are presented in profit or loss in Addition to loan loss provision.
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The calculation of ECL requires a number of judgements and estimates. In particular:
\u2022 ING Group makes various assumptions about the risk of default, the credit loss rates in case of a
default and expected future cash flows. For collective provisions, ING Group applies significant
judgement when estimating modelled parameters such as PD, LGD and EAD, including the
selection and calibration of relevant models. For Stage 3 individual provisioning, the determination
and probabilities of restructuring and recovery scenarios, as well as the amount and timing of
expected future cash flows, may be particularly subjective.
\u2022 Forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios used in impairment assessments are uncertain in
nature. The use of alternate forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios can produce significantly
different estimates of ECL. This is demonstrated in the sensitivity analysis in the \u2018Risk Management\u2019
section of the annual report, where the un-weighted ECL under each of the three scenarios for
some significant portfolios is disclosed.
\u2022 When determining whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly (criteria
for identifying a significant increase in credit risk), ING Group considers reasonable and
supportable information to compare the risk of default occurring at reporting date with the risk of a
default occurring at initial recognition of the financial asset. Whilst judgement is required in
applying a PD rating to each financial asset, there is significant judgement used in determining the
Stage allocation PD banding thresholds. The process of comparing a financial asset\u2019s PD with the
PD banding thresholds determines its ECL Stage. Assets in Stage 1 are allocated a 12-month ECL,
and those in Stage 2 are allocated a lifetime ECL, and the difference is often significant. As such,
the judgement made in assigning financial asset PDs and the PD banding thresholds constitutes a
significant judgement. Analysis of the sensitivity associated with the assessment of a significant
increase in credit risk is presented in the \u2018Risk Management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
\u2022 Judgement is exercised in management\u2019s evaluation of whether there is objective evidence that
exposures are credit-impaired.
\u2022 To reflect the risks that are not properly captured by the ECL models (including climate risk), a
number of management adjustments to the model-based ECL were necessary as at 31 December
2024, which required significant judgement. Reference is made to the \u2018Management adjustments
applied this reporting period\u2019 paragraph in the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
1.5.7\u00a0 Modification of financial instruments
In certain circumstances, ING Group grants borrowers postponement, reduction of loan principal and/or
interest payments on a temporary period of time to maximise collection opportunities, and if possible, avoid
default, foreclosure, or repossession. When such postponement, reduction of loan principal and/or interest
payments are executed based on credit concerns, they are also referred to as forbearance (refer to the \u2018Risk
Management\u2019 section of the Annual Report for more details) and require analysis on whether the contractual
terms have been substantially modified or not. A similar assessment is needed when contractual terms are
modified for reasons other than forbearance.
ING Group determines whether there has been a substantial modification using both quantitative and
qualitative factors. If the modification results in a substantial modification of the terms of the loan, the
original loan is derecognised and a new loan is recognised at fair value at the modification date. In case of a
non-substantial modification, a modification gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss.
Benchmark rate reform \u2013 specific policies for modifications necessary to implement the benchmark rate
reform
As explained in the \u2018Benchmark rate reform \u2013 specific policies for hedges directly affected by the benchmark
rate reform\u2019 paragraph of section \u20181.5.4 Derivatives and hedge accounting\u2019, given that the benchmark rate
reform may have various accounting implications, the IASB undertook a two-phase project. Apart from
hedge accounting, Phase 2 amendments to IFRS relate to accounting for changes in the basis for
determining the contractual cash flows of financial assets and liabilities due to the benchmark rate reform.
Specifically, Phase 2 amendments require that the effective interest rate on debt financial instruments is
adjusted, but only to the extent that the modifications made to financial instruments are those necessary to
implement the benchmark rate reform and that the new basis for calculating cash flows is \u2018economically
equivalent\u2019 to the previous basis. By applying these mandatory amendments, ING Group avoids recognising
modification gains and losses on debt instruments that would otherwise be required in the absence of Phase
2 amendments (changes to debt instruments resulting from the benchmark rate reform are treated as a
reset to the instrument\u2019s variable interest rate). Refer to note \u2018Risk management/Impact of the benchmark
rate reform\u2019 for the disclosures relating to the application of the amendments as part of Phase 2.
1.5.8\u00a0 Accounting for Targeted Longer-Term Refinancing Operations (TLTRO)
ING Group participated in the Targeted Longer-Term Refinancing Operations (TLTRO III), which mainly
affected comparative periods as, in March 2024, ING repaid the final EUR 6 billion of its TLTRO III participation.
ING Group considered TLTRO funding provided by the ECB to banks to be on market terms on the basis that
the ECB has established a separate market with TLTRO programmes. They have specific terms which are
different from other sources of funding available to banks, including those provided by the ECB.
Consequently, the rate under TLTRO was considered to be a market conforming rate and TLTRO funding was
recognised fully as a financial liability.
ING Group interpreted the whole rate set by the ECB under TLTRO as a floating rate on the financial liability,
being the market rate for each specific period in time. This resulted in discrete rates for discrete interest
periods over the life of TLTRO. The change in the applicable rate between interest periods was seen as a
change in the floating rate and was accounted for prospectively. Similarly, if the ECB announced changes in
the rate for the amounts already drawn under the existing TLTRO, then such changes also represented a
change in a floating rate. Following this, such changes led to the recognition of an increased/decreased
interest in the relevant period of life of the exposure, rather than by the recognition of an immediate
modification gain or loss at the moment of the change of terms by the ECB. If the change related to the
periods already passed, the impact for those past periods was recognised in profit or loss immediately.
Reference is made to Note 12 \u2018Deposits from banks\u2019 and to Note 20 \u2018Net interest income\u2019 for the presentation
of ING Group\u2019s participation in TLTRO programmes.

1.5.1\u00a0 Recognition and derecognition of financial instruments
Recognition of financial assets
Financial assets are recognised in the balance sheet when ING Group becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument. For a regular way purchase or sale of a financial asset, trade date and
settlement date accounting is applied, depending on the classification of the financial asset.
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have
expired or where ING Group has transferred the rights to receive the cash flows from the financial asset or
assumed an obligation to pass on the cash flows and has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards
of the asset. If ING Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of
a financial asset, it derecognises the financial asset if it no longer has control over the asset. The difference
between the carrying amount of a financial asset that has been derecognised and the consideration
received is recognised in profit or loss.
Recognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are recognised on the date that the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions
of the instrument.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or
expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished and
the consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss.

1.5.2\u00a0 Classification and measurement of financial instruments
Financial assets
ING Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
\u2022 those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI, or through profit or loss); and
\u2022 those to be measured at amortised cost (AC).
At initial recognition, ING Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial
asset not at FVPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL) are expensed in the
statement of profit or loss.
Financial assets \u2013 Debt instruments
The classification depends on the entity\u2019s business model for managing the financial assets and the
contractual terms of the cash flows at initial recognition.
Business models
Business models are classified as Hold to Collect (HtC), Hold to Collect and Sell (HtC&S) or Other depending on
how a portfolio of financial instruments as a whole is managed. ING Group\u2019s business models are based on
the existing management structure of the bank, and refined based on an analysis of how businesses are
evaluated and reported, how their specific business risks are managed, and on historic and expected future
sales. Sales are permissible in a HtC business model when these are due to an increase in credit risk, take
place close to the maturity date (where the proceeds from the sales approximate the collection of the
remaining contractual cash flows), are insignificant in value (both individually and in aggregate) or are
infrequent.
Contractual cash flows Solely Payments of Principal and Interest (SPPI)
The contractual cash flows of a financial asset are assessed to determine whether they represent SPPI.
Interest includes consideration for the time value of money, credit risk and for other basic lending risks such
as consideration for liquidity risk and costs associated with holding the financial asset for a particular period
of time. In addition, interest can include a profit margin that is consistent with a basic lending arrangement.
Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their
cash flows are SPPI.
In assessing whether the contractual cash flows are SPPI, ING Group considers the contractual terms of the
instrument. This includes assessing whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could
change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not meet this condition.
Based on the entity\u2019s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the
cash flows, there are three measurement categories into which ING Group classifies its debt instruments:
\u2022 Amortised Cost (AC):
Debt instruments that are held for collection of contractual cash flows under a HtC business model where
those cash flows represent SPPI are measured at AC. Interest income from these financial assets is
included in Interest income using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method. Any gain or loss arising on
derecognition is recognised directly in profit or loss. Impairment losses are presented as a separate line
item in the statement of profit or loss.
\u2022 FVOCI:
Debt instruments that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets
under a HtC&S business model, where the assets\u2019 cash flows represent SPPI, are measured at FVOCI.
Movements in the carrying amount are recognised in OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains
or losses, interest revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit or loss.
When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is
reclassified from equity to profit or loss and presented in Investment income or Other net income, based
on the specific characteristics of the business model. Interest income from these financial assets is
included in Interest income using the EIR method. Impairment losses are presented as a separate line
item in the statement of profit or loss.
\u2022 FVPL:
Debt instruments that do not meet the criteria for AC or FVOCI are measured at FVPL. This includes debt
instruments that are held-for-trading (presented separately as Trading assets) and all other debt
instruments that do not meet the criteria for AC or FVOCI (presented separately as Mandatorily at FVPL).
ING Group may in some cases, on initial recognition, irrevocably designate a financial asset as classified
and measured at FVPL. This is the case where doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting
mismatch that would otherwise arise on assets measured at AC or FVOCI. Fair value movements on
trading securities, trading loans and deposits (mainly reverse repo's) are presented fully within valuation
result and net trading income. This also includes interest. The interest arising on financial assets
designated as at FVPL is recognised in profit or loss and presented within Other interest income or Other
interest expense in the period in which it arises. The interest arising on a debt instrument that is part of a
hedge relationship, but not subject to hedge accounting, is recognised in profit or loss and presented
within Other interest income or Other interest expense in the period in which it arises.
ING Group reclassifies debt instruments if, and only if, its business model for managing those financial assets
changes. Such changes in business models are expected to be very infrequent. There have been no
reclassifications during the reporting period.
Financial assets \u2013 Equity instruments
All equity investments are measured at fair value. ING Group applies the fair value through OCI option to
investments which are considered strategic, consisting of investments that add value to ING Group\u2019s core
banking activities.
There is no subsequent recycling of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of
investments if elected to be classified and measured as FVOCI. However, the cumulative gain or loss is
transferred within equity to retained earnings on derecognition of such equity instruments. Dividends from
such investments continue to be recognised in profit or loss as Investment income when ING Group\u2019s right to
receive payments is established. Impairment requirements are not applicable to equity investments
classified and measured as FVOCI.
Other remaining equity investments are measured at FVPL. All changes in the fair value are recognised in
Valuation result and Net trading income in the Consolidated statement of profit or loss.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified and subsequently measured at AC, except for financial guarantee contracts,
derivatives and liabilities designated at FVPL. Financial liabilities classified and measured at FVPL are
presented as follows:
\u2022 the amount of change in the fair value that is attributable to changes in own credit risk of the liability
designated at FVPL is presented in OCI. Upon derecognition this Debit Valuation Adjustment (DVA) impact
does not recycle from OCI to profit or loss;\u00a0
\u2022 the remaining amount of change in the fair value is presented in profit or loss in \u2018Valuation results and
net trading income\u2019. Interest on financial liabilities at FVPL is also recognised in the valuation result,
except for items voluntarily designated as FVPL, for which interest is presented within \u2018Other interest
income (expense)'.
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires ING Group to make specified payments to
reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in
accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. Such a contract is initially recognised at
fair value and is subsequently measured at the higher of (a) the amount determined in accordance with
impairment provisions of IFRS 9 \u2018Financial instruments\u2019 (see section 'Impairment of financial assets') and (b)
the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, cumulative amortisation recognised in accordance
with the revenue recognition principle of IFRS 15 \u2018Revenue from contracts with customers\u2019.
Repurchase transactions and reverse repurchase transactions
Securities sold subject to repurchase agreements (repo's), securities lending and similar agreements
continue to be recognised in the Consolidated statement of financial position. The counterparty liability is
measured at FVPL (designated) and included in Other financial liabilities at FVPL if the asset is measured at
FVPL. Otherwise, the counterparty liability is included in Deposits from banks, Customer deposits, or Trading,
as appropriate.
Securities purchased under agreements to resell (reverse repos), securities borrowings and similar
agreements are not recognised in the Consolidated statement of financial position. The consideration paid to
purchase securities is recognised as Loans and advances to customers, Loans and advances to banks, Other
financial assets at FVPL or Trading assets, as appropriate. The difference between the sale and repurchase
price is treated as interest and amortised over the life of the agreement using the effective interest method
for instruments that are not measured at FVPL.
1.5.3\u00a0 Fair values of financial assets and liabilities
All financial assets and liabilities are recognised initially at fair value. The fair value of a financial instrument
on initial recognition is generally its transaction price (that is, the fair value of the consideration given or
received). However, if there is a material difference between the transaction price and the fair value of
financial instruments whose fair value is based on a valuation technique using significant unobservable
inputs, the entire 'day one' difference (a \u2018Day One Profit or Loss\u2019) is deferred. ING Group defers the Day One
Profit or Loss relating to financial instruments classified as Level 3 and financial instruments with material
unobservable inputs into CVA which are not necessarily classified as Level 3. The deferred Day One Profit or
Loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss over the life of the transaction until the transaction
matures, or until the significant unobservable inputs become observable, or until the significant
unobservable inputs become non-significant. In all other cases, ING Group recognises the difference as a gain
or loss at inception.
Subsequently, except for financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost, all the other
financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It assumes that market
participants would use and take into account the characteristics of the asset or liability when pricing the
asset or liability. Fair values of financial assets and liabilities are based on unadjusted quoted market prices
where available. Such quoted market prices are primarily obtained from exchange prices for listed financial
instruments. Where an exchange price is not available, quoted prices in an active market may be obtained
from independent market vendors, brokers, or market makers. In general, positions are valued at the bid
price for a long position and at the offer price for a short position or are valued at the price within the bid-
offer spread that is most representative of fair value in the circumstances. In some cases where positions are
marked at mid-market prices, a fair value adjustment is calculated.
For certain financial assets and liabilities, quoted market prices are not available. For such instruments, fair
value is determined using valuation techniques. These range from discounting of cash flows to various
valuation models, where relevant pricing factors including the market price of underlying reference
instruments, market parameters (volatilities, correlations and credit ratings), and customer behaviour are
taken into account. ING Group maximises the use of market observable inputs and minimises the use of
unobservable inputs in determining the fair value. It can be subjective dependent on the significance of the
unobservable input to the overall valuation. All valuation techniques used are subject to internal review and
approval. Most data used in these valuation techniques are validated on a daily basis when possible.
When a group of financial assets and liabilities are managed on the basis of their net risk exposures, the fair
value of a group of financial assets and liabilities are measured on a net portfolio level.
To include credit risk in fair value, ING Group applies both Credit and Debit Valuation Adjustments (CVA, DVA,
also known as Bilateral Valuation Adjustments or BVA). Own issued debt and structured notes that are
designated at FVPL are adjusted for ING Group\u2019s own credit risk by means of a DVA. To include the funding
risk, ING Group applies an additional \u2018Funding Valuation Adjustment\u2019 (FVA) to the uncollateralised derivatives
based on the market price of funding liquidity. ING Group also applies to certain positions other valuation
adjustments to arrive at the fair value, such as Bid-Offer adjustments, Model Risk Adjustments and Collateral
Valuation Adjustments (CollVA).
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
\u2022 Even if market prices are available, when markets are less liquid there may be a range of prices for
the same security from different price sources. Selecting the most appropriate price requires
judgement and could result in different estimates of fair value.\u00a0
\u2022 Valuation techniques are subjective in nature and significant judgement is involved in establishing
fair values for certain financial assets and liabilities. Valuation techniques involve various
assumptions regarding pricing factors. The use of different valuation techniques and assumptions
could produce significantly different estimates of fair value.\u00a0
\u2022 Price testing is performed to assess whether the process of valuation has led to an appropriate fair
value of the position and to minimise the potential risks of economic losses due to incorrect or
misused models.
\u2022 Assessing whether a market is active, and whether an input is observable and significant, requires
judgement. ING Group categorises its financial instruments that are either measured in the
statement of financial position at fair value or of which the fair value is disclosed, into a three-level
hierarchy based on the observability and significance of the valuation inputs. The use of different
approaches to assess whether a market is active, whether an input is observable, and whether an
unobservable input is significant could produce different classification within the fair value
hierarchy as well as potentially different deferral of the Day One Profit or Loss.
\u2022 Reference is made to Note 34 'Fair value of assets and liabilities' and to the \u2018Market risk\u2019 paragraph
in the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report for the basis of the determination of the fair
value of financial instruments and related sensitivities.

Financial assets
ING Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
\u2022 those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI, or through profit or loss); and
\u2022 those to be measured at amortised cost (AC).
At initial recognition, ING Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial
asset not at FVPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL) are expensed in the
statement of profit or loss.
Financial assets \u2013 Debt instruments
The classification depends on the entity\u2019s business model for managing the financial assets and the
contractual terms of the cash flows at initial recognition.
Business models
Business models are classified as Hold to Collect (HtC), Hold to Collect and Sell (HtC&S) or Other depending on
how a portfolio of financial instruments as a whole is managed. ING Group\u2019s business models are based on
the existing management structure of the bank, and refined based on an analysis of how businesses are
evaluated and reported, how their specific business risks are managed, and on historic and expected future
sales. Sales are permissible in a HtC business model when these are due to an increase in credit risk, take
place close to the maturity date (where the proceeds from the sales approximate the collection of the
remaining contractual cash flows), are insignificant in value (both individually and in aggregate) or are
infrequent.
Contractual cash flows Solely Payments of Principal and Interest (SPPI)
The contractual cash flows of a financial asset are assessed to determine whether they represent SPPI.
Interest includes consideration for the time value of money, credit risk and for other basic lending risks such
as consideration for liquidity risk and costs associated with holding the financial asset for a particular period
of time. In addition, interest can include a profit margin that is consistent with a basic lending arrangement.
Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their
cash flows are SPPI.
In assessing whether the contractual cash flows are SPPI, ING Group considers the contractual terms of the
instrument. This includes assessing whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could
change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not meet this condition.
Based on the entity\u2019s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the
cash flows, there are three measurement categories into which ING Group classifies its debt instruments:
\u2022 Amortised Cost (AC):
Debt instruments that are held for collection of contractual cash flows under a HtC business model where
those cash flows represent SPPI are measured at AC. Interest income from these financial assets is
included in Interest income using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method. Any gain or loss arising on
derecognition is recognised directly in profit or loss. Impairment losses are presented as a separate line
item in the statement of profit or loss.
\u2022 FVOCI:
Debt instruments that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets
under a HtC&S business model, where the assets\u2019 cash flows represent SPPI, are measured at FVOCI.
Movements in the carrying amount are recognised in OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains
or losses, interest revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit or loss.
When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is
reclassified from equity to profit or loss and presented in Investment income or Other net income, based
on the specific characteristics of the business model. Interest income from these financial assets is
included in Interest income using the EIR method. Impairment losses are presented as a separate line
item in the statement of profit or loss.
\u2022 FVPL:
Debt instruments that do not meet the criteria for AC or FVOCI are measured at FVPL. This includes debt
instruments that are held-for-trading (presented separately as Trading assets) and all other debt
instruments that do not meet the criteria for AC or FVOCI (presented separately as Mandatorily at FVPL).
ING Group may in some cases, on initial recognition, irrevocably designate a financial asset as classified
and measured at FVPL. This is the case where doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting
mismatch that would otherwise arise on assets measured at AC or FVOCI. Fair value movements on
trading securities, trading loans and deposits (mainly reverse repo's) are presented fully within valuation
result and net trading income. This also includes interest. The interest arising on financial assets
designated as at FVPL is recognised in profit or loss and presented within Other interest income or Other
interest expense in the period in which it arises. The interest arising on a debt instrument that is part of a
hedge relationship, but not subject to hedge accounting, is recognised in profit or loss and presented
within Other interest income or Other interest expense in the period in which it arises.
ING Group reclassifies debt instruments if, and only if, its business model for managing those financial assets
changes. Such changes in business models are expected to be very infrequent. There have been no
reclassifications during the reporting period.
Financial assets \u2013 Equity instruments
All equity investments are measured at fair value. ING Group applies the fair value through OCI option to
investments which are considered strategic, consisting of investments that add value to ING Group\u2019s core

1.5.3\u00a0 Fair values of financial assets and liabilities
All financial assets and liabilities are recognised initially at fair value. The fair value of a financial instrument
on initial recognition is generally its transaction price (that is, the fair value of the consideration given or
received). However, if there is a material difference between the transaction price and the fair value of
financial instruments whose fair value is based on a valuation technique using significant unobservable
inputs, the entire 'day one' difference (a \u2018Day One Profit or Loss\u2019) is deferred. ING Group defers the Day One
Profit or Loss relating to financial instruments classified as Level 3 and financial instruments with material
unobservable inputs into CVA which are not necessarily classified as Level 3. The deferred Day One Profit or
Loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss over the life of the transaction until the transaction
matures, or until the significant unobservable inputs become observable, or until the significant
unobservable inputs become non-significant. In all other cases, ING Group recognises the difference as a gain
or loss at inception.
Subsequently, except for financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost, all the other
financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It assumes that market
participants would use and take into account the characteristics of the asset or liability when pricing the
asset or liability. Fair values of financial assets and liabilities are based on unadjusted quoted market prices
where available. Such quoted market prices are primarily obtained from exchange prices for listed financial
instruments. Where an exchange price is not available, quoted prices in an active market may be obtained
from independent market vendors, brokers, or market makers. In general, positions are valued at the bid
price for a long position and at the offer price for a short position or are valued at the price within the bid-
offer spread that is most representative of fair value in the circumstances. In some cases where positions are
marked at mid-market prices, a fair value adjustment is calculated.
For certain financial assets and liabilities, quoted market prices are not available. For such instruments, fair
value is determined using valuation techniques. These range from discounting of cash flows to various
valuation models, where relevant pricing factors including the market price of underlying reference
instruments, market parameters (volatilities, correlations and credit ratings), and customer behaviour are
taken into account. ING Group maximises the use of market observable inputs and minimises the use of
unobservable inputs in determining the fair value. It can be subjective dependent on the significance of the
unobservable input to the overall valuation. All valuation techniques used are subject to internal review and
approval. Most data used in these valuation techniques are validated on a daily basis when possible.
When a group of financial assets and liabilities are managed on the basis of their net risk exposures, the fair
value of a group of financial assets and liabilities are measured on a net portfolio level.
To include credit risk in fair value, ING Group applies both Credit and Debit Valuation Adjustments (CVA, DVA,
also known as Bilateral Valuation Adjustments or BVA). Own issued debt and structured notes that are
designated at FVPL are adjusted for ING Group\u2019s own credit risk by means of a DVA. To include the funding
risk, ING Group applies an additional \u2018Funding Valuation Adjustment\u2019 (FVA) to the uncollateralised derivatives
based on the market price of funding liquidity. ING Group also applies to certain positions other valuation
adjustments to arrive at the fair value, such as Bid-Offer adjustments, Model Risk Adjustments and Collateral
Valuation Adjustments (CollVA).
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
\u2022 Even if market prices are available, when markets are less liquid there may be a range of prices for
the same security from different price sources. Selecting the most appropriate price requires
judgement and could result in different estimates of fair value.\u00a0
\u2022 Valuation techniques are subjective in nature and significant judgement is involved in establishing
fair values for certain financial assets and liabilities. Valuation techniques involve various
assumptions regarding pricing factors. The use of different valuation techniques and assumptions
could produce significantly different estimates of fair value.\u00a0
\u2022 Price testing is performed to assess whether the process of valuation has led to an appropriate fair
value of the position and to minimise the potential risks of economic losses due to incorrect or
misused models.
\u2022 Assessing whether a market is active, and whether an input is observable and significant, requires
judgement. ING Group categorises its financial instruments that are either measured in the
statement of financial position at fair value or of which the fair value is disclosed, into a three-level
hierarchy based on the observability and significance of the valuation inputs. The use of different
approaches to assess whether a market is active, whether an input is observable, and whether an
unobservable input is significant could produce different classification within the fair value
hierarchy as well as potentially different deferral of the Day One Profit or Loss.
\u2022 Reference is made to Note 34 'Fair value of assets and liabilities' and to the \u2018Market risk\u2019 paragraph
in the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report for the basis of the determination of the fair
value of financial instruments and related sensitivities.
1.5.6\u00a0 Impairment of financial assets
An Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model is applied to financial assets accounted for at AC or FVOCI such as loans,
debt securities and lease receivables, as well as off-balance sheet items such as undrawn loan
commitments, certain financial guarantees issued, and undrawn committed revolving credit facilities. Under
the ECL model, ING Group calculates the ECL by considering on a discounted basis the cash shortfall it would
incur in case of a default and multiplying the shortfall by the probability of a default occurring. The ECL is the
sum of the probability-weighted outcomes. The ECL estimates are unbiased and include reasonable and
supportable information about past events, current conditions, and forecasts of future economic conditions.
ECL is recognised on the balance sheet as loan loss provisions (LLP).
Three-stage approach
Financial assets are classified in one of the below three stages at each reporting date. A financial asset can
move between Stages during its lifetime. The Stages are based on changes in credit quality since initial
recognition and defined as follows:
\u2022 Stage 1
Financial assets that have not had a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition (i.e. no Stage
2 or 3 triggers apply). Assets are classified as Stage 1 upon initial recognition (with the exception of
purchased or originated credit impaired (POCI) assets) and ECL is determined by the probability that a
default occurs in the next 12 months (12 months ECL);
\u2022 Stage 2
Financial assets showing a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. For assets in Stage 2,
ECL reflects an estimate on the credit losses over the remaining maturity of the asset (lifetime ECL); or
\u2022 Stage 3
Financial assets that are credit-impaired. Also for these assets, ECL is determined over the remaining
maturity of the asset.
Significant increase in credit risk
ING Group established a framework, incorporating quantitative and qualitative indicators, to identify and
assess significant increases in credit risk (SICR). This is used to determine the appropriate ECL Stage for each
financial asset. Reference is made to the \u2018Criteria for identifying a significant increase in credit risk (SICR)\u2019 in
the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
An asset that is in Stage 2 will move back to Stage 1 when none of the above criteria are in place anymore.
However, if the asset was moved to Stage 2 based on the forbearance status, then the asset stays in Stage 2
for at least 24 months. If the asset was classified as Stage 2 due to the '30 days past due' trigger, then the
asset is moved back to Stage 1 only after three months from when the trigger no longer applies.
Credit-impaired financial assets (Stage 3)
Financial assets are assessed for credit-impairment at each reporting date and more frequently when
circumstances warrant further assessment. Evidence of credit-impairment includes arrears of over 90 days
on any material credit obligation, indications that the borrower is experiencing significant financial difficulty,
a breach of contract, bankruptcy or distressed restructuring. The definition of 'credit-impaired' under IFRS 9
(Stage 3) is aligned with the definition of 'default' used by ING Group for internal risk management purposes,
which is also the definition used for regulatory purposes.
An asset (other than a POCI asset) that is in Stage 3 will move back to Stage 2 when, as at the reporting date,
it is no longer considered to be credit-impaired, subject to certain probation periods. The asset will migrate
back to Stage 1 when its credit risk at the reporting date is no longer considered to have increased
significantly since initial recognition.
Macroeconomic scenarios
ING Group has established a quarterly process whereby forward-looking macroeconomics scenarios and
probability weightings are developed for the purpose of ECL. ING Group applies data predominantly from a
leading service provider enriched with the internal ING Group view. A baseline, up-scenario and down-
scenario are determined to reflect an unbiased and probability-weighted ECL amount. As a baseline
scenario, ING Group applies the market-neutral view combining consensus forecasts for economic variables
such as unemployment rates, GDP growth, house prices, commodity prices, and short-term interest rates.
Applying market consensus in the baseline scenario ensures unbiased estimates of the expected credit
losses.
The alternative scenarios are based on observed forecast errors in the past, adjusted for the risks affecting
the economy today and the forecast horizon. The probabilities assigned are based on the likelihoods of
observing the three scenarios and are derived from confidence intervals on a probability distribution. The
forecasts for the economic variables are adjusted on a quarterly basis.
The probability weights applied to each of the three scenarios
ING Group uses three macroeconomic scenarios when determining IFRS 9 ECL (baseline, upside and
downside). The management approach used to determine the weights of each scenario and in selecting the
parts of the distribution of forecast errors from which the weights are derived is disclosed in the 'Alternative
Scenarios and Probability Weights' section. Additionally, this approach is detailed in the sensitivity analysis
within the 'Risk Management' section of the Annual Report.
Measurement of ECL
ING Group applies a collective assessment method to measure ECL for Stage 1, Stage 2, and certain Stage 3
assets. Other credit-impaired assets subject to ECL measurement apply the individual assessment method.
Collectively assessed assets (Stages 1 to 3)
For collective assessed assets, ING Group applies a model-based approach. ECL is determined by, expressed
simplistically, multiplying the probability of default (PD) with the loss given default (LGD) and exposure at
default (EAD), adjusted for the time value of money. Assets that are collectively assessed are grouped on the
basis of similar credit-risk characteristics, taking into account the loan type, industry, geographic location,
collateral type, past due status and other relevant factors. These characteristics are relevant to the
estimation of future cash flows for groups of such assets by being indicative of the debtors\u2019 ability to pay all
amounts due according to the contractual terms of the assets being evaluated and the loss in case the
debtor is not able to pay all amounts due.
For Stage 3 assets, the PD equals 100% and the LGD and EAD represent a lifetime view of the losses based on
characteristics of defaulted facilities.
For the measurement of ECL, ING Group\u2019s expected credit loss models (PD, LGD, EAD) used for regulatory
purposes have been adjusted. These adjustments include removing embedded prudential conservatism
(such as floors) and converted through-the-cycle estimates to point-in-time estimates. The models assess
ECL on the basis of forward-looking macroeconomic forecasts and other inputs. For most financial assets,
the expected life is limited to the remaining maturity. For overdrafts and certain revolving credit facilities,
such as credit cards, the maturity is estimated based on historical data as these do not have a fixed term or
repayment schedule.
Individually assessed assets (Stage 3)
ING Group estimates ECL for individually significant credit-impaired financial assets within Stage 3 on an
individual basis. ECL for these Individually assessed assets are determined using the discounted expected
future cash flow method. To determine expected future cash flows, one or more scenarios are used. Each
scenario is analysed based on the probability of occurrence and includes forward-looking information.
In determining the scenarios, all relevant factors impacting the future cash flows are taken into account.
These include expected developments in credit quality, business and economic forecasts, and estimates of if/
when recoveries will occur, taking into account ING Group\u2019s restructuring/recovery strategy.
The best estimate of ECL is calculated as the weighted-average of the shortfall (gross carrying amount
minus discounted expected future cash flow using the original EIR) per scenario, based on best estimates of
expected future cash flows. Recoveries can arise from, among other things, the repayment of the loan,
collateral recovery and the sale of the asset. Cash flows from collateral and other credit enhancements are
included in the measurement of ECL of the related financial asset when it is part of or integral to the
contractual terms of the financial asset and the credit enhancement is not recognised separately. For the
individual assessment, with granular (company- or asset-specific) scenarios, specific factors can have a
larger impact on the future cash flows than macroeconomic factors.
When a financial asset is credit-impaired, interest income is no longer recognised based on the gross
carrying amount of the asset. Instead, interest income is calculated by applying the original effective
interest rate to the amortised cost of the asset, which is the gross carrying amount less the related loan loss
provision.
Purchased or Originated Credit Impaired (POCI) assets
POCI assets are financial assets that are credit-impaired on initial recognition. Impairment on a POCI asset is
determined based on lifetime ECL from initial recognition. POCI assets are recognised initially at an amount net
of ECL and are measured at AC using a credit-adjusted effective interest rate. In subsequent periods, any
changes to the estimated lifetime ECL are recognised in profit or loss. Favourable changes are recognised as an
impairment gain if the lifetime ECL at the reporting date is lower than the estimated lifetime ECL at origination.
Write-off and debt forgiveness
Loans and debt securities are written off (either partially or in full) when there is no reasonable expectation
of recovery and/or collectability of amounts due. The following events can lead to a write-off:
\u2022 After a restructuring has been completed and there is a high improbability of recovery of part of the
remaining loan exposure (including partial debt forgiveness);
\u2022 In a bankruptcy liquidation scenario;
\u2022 After divestment or sale of a credit facility at a discount; and
\u2022 Specific fraud cases with no recourse options.
When a loan is uncollectable, it is written off against the related loan loss provision. Subsequent recoveries of
amounts previously written off are recognised in \u2018Addition to loan loss provisions\u2019 in the Consolidated
statement of profit or loss.
Debt forgiveness (or debt settlement) involves write-off, but also involves the forgiveness of a legal
obligation, in whole or in part. This means that ING Group forfeits the legal right to recover the debt. As a
result, the financial asset needs to be derecognised.
Presentation of ECL
ECL for financial assets measured at AC is deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. For debt
instruments at FVOCI, the ECL is recognised in OCI, instead of deducting it from the carrying amount of the
asset. ECL also reflects any credit losses related to the portion of the loan commitment that is expected to
be drawn down over the remaining life of the instrument. The ECL on issued financial guarantee contracts, in
scope of IFRS 9 and not measured at FVPL, is recognised as liabilities and presented in Other provisions. ECL
are presented in profit or loss in Addition to loan loss provision.
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The calculation of ECL requires a number of judgements and estimates. In particular:
\u2022 ING Group makes various assumptions about the risk of default, the credit loss rates in case of a
default and expected future cash flows. For collective provisions, ING Group applies significant
judgement when estimating modelled parameters such as PD, LGD and EAD, including the
selection and calibration of relevant models. For Stage 3 individual provisioning, the determination
and probabilities of restructuring and recovery scenarios, as well as the amount and timing of
expected future cash flows, may be particularly subjective.
\u2022 Forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios used in impairment assessments are uncertain in
nature. The use of alternate forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios can produce significantly
different estimates of ECL. This is demonstrated in the sensitivity analysis in the \u2018Risk Management\u2019
section of the annual report, where the un-weighted ECL under each of the three scenarios for
some significant portfolios is disclosed.
\u2022 When determining whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly (criteria
for identifying a significant increase in credit risk), ING Group considers reasonable and
supportable information to compare the risk of default occurring at reporting date with the risk of a
default occurring at initial recognition of the financial asset. Whilst judgement is required in
applying a PD rating to each financial asset, there is significant judgement used in determining the
Stage allocation PD banding thresholds. The process of comparing a financial asset\u2019s PD with the
PD banding thresholds determines its ECL Stage. Assets in Stage 1 are allocated a 12-month ECL,
and those in Stage 2 are allocated a lifetime ECL, and the difference is often significant. As such,
the judgement made in assigning financial asset PDs and the PD banding thresholds constitutes a
significant judgement. Analysis of the sensitivity associated with the assessment of a significant
increase in credit risk is presented in the \u2018Risk Management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
\u2022 Judgement is exercised in management\u2019s evaluation of whether there is objective evidence that
exposures are credit-impaired.
\u2022 To reflect the risks that are not properly captured by the ECL models (including climate risk), a
number of management adjustments to the model-based ECL were necessary as at 31 December
2024, which required significant judgement. Reference is made to the \u2018Management adjustments
applied this reporting period\u2019 paragraph in the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
1.5.7\u00a0 Modification of financial instruments
In certain circumstances, ING Group grants borrowers postponement, reduction of loan principal and/or
interest payments on a temporary period of time to maximise collection opportunities, and if possible, avoid
default, foreclosure, or repossession. When such postponement, reduction of loan principal and/or interest
payments are executed based on credit concerns, they are also referred to as forbearance (refer to the \u2018Risk
Management\u2019 section of the Annual Report for more details) and require analysis on whether the contractual
terms have been substantially modified or not. A similar assessment is needed when contractual terms are
modified for reasons other than forbearance.
ING Group determines whether there has been a substantial modification using both quantitative and
qualitative factors. If the modification results in a substantial modification of the terms of the loan, the
original loan is derecognised and a new loan is recognised at fair value at the modification date. In case of a
non-substantial modification, a modification gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss.
Benchmark rate reform \u2013 specific policies for modifications necessary to implement the benchmark rate
reform
As explained in the \u2018Benchmark rate reform \u2013 specific policies for hedges directly affected by the benchmark
rate reform\u2019 paragraph of section \u20181.5.4 Derivatives and hedge accounting\u2019, given that the benchmark rate
reform may have various accounting implications, the IASB undertook a two-phase project. Apart from
hedge accounting, Phase 2 amendments to IFRS relate to accounting for changes in the basis for
determining the contractual cash flows of financial assets and liabilities due to the benchmark rate reform.
Specifically, Phase 2 amendments require that the effective interest rate on debt financial instruments is
adjusted, but only to the extent that the modifications made to financial instruments are those necessary to
implement the benchmark rate reform and that the new basis for calculating cash flows is \u2018economically
equivalent\u2019 to the previous basis. By applying these mandatory amendments, ING Group avoids recognising
modification gains and losses on debt instruments that would otherwise be required in the absence of Phase
2 amendments (changes to debt instruments resulting from the benchmark rate reform are treated as a
reset to the instrument\u2019s variable interest rate). Refer to note \u2018Risk management/Impact of the benchmark
rate reform\u2019 for the disclosures relating to the application of the amendments as part of Phase 2.
1.10\u00a0 Investments in associates and joint ventures
Associates are all entities over which ING Group has significant influence but not control. Significant influence
is the ability to participate in the financial and operating policies of the investee. It generally results from a
shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights or through situations including, but not limited to
one or more of the following:
\u2022 Representation on the board of directors;\u00a0
\u2022 Participation in the policymaking process; and\u00a0
\u2022 Interchange of managerial personnel.\u00a0
Joint ventures are entities over which ING Group has joint control.
Investments in associates and joint ventures are initially recognised at cost and subsequently accounted for
using the equity method of accounting.
ING Group\u2019s investment in associates and joint ventures (net of any accumulated impairment loss) includes
goodwill identified on acquisition. ING Group\u2019s share of its associates and joint ventures post-acquisition
profits or losses is recognised in the statement of profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition changes in
reserves is recognised in equity. The cumulative post-acquisition changes are adjusted against the carrying
amount of the investment. When ING Group\u2019s share of losses in an associate or joint venture equals or
exceeds its interest in the associate or joint venture, including any long-term interests in the associate like
uncollateralised loans that are neither planned nor likely to be settled in the foreseeable future, ING Group
does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the
associate or joint venture.
Unrealised gains on transactions between ING Group and its associates and joint ventures are eliminated to
the extent of ING Group\u2019s interest in the associates and joint ventures. Unrealised losses are also eliminated
unless they provide evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates
and joint ventures have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by
ING Group.
The recoverable amount, being the higher of fair value less cost of disposal and value in use, of the
investment in associate and joint venture is determined when there is an indication of potential (reversal of)
impairment. An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of the investment exceeds its
recoverable amount. Goodwill on acquisitions of interests in associates and joint ventures is not tested
separately for impairment, but is assessed as part of the carrying amount of the investment. An impairment
loss is subsequently reversed if there is indication of a reversal and there is a change in the estimates used to
determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the recoverable
amount exceeds its carrying amount, but cannot exceed the original impairment loss.
The reporting dates of certain associates and joint ventures can differ from the reporting date of the Group,
but by no more than three months.
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
Identification of impairment indicators as well as indicators of potential reversal of previous
impairments of ING Group\u2019s investment in TMBThanachart Bank Public Company Limited (hereafter:
TTB), an associate, requires significant judgement. When there is objective evidence of impairment or
indicators that prior period impairment losses no longer exist or may have decreased, value in use
(VIU) needs to be determined. Estimation of VIU involves significant estimates and management
assumptions. See Note 8 \u2018Investments in associates and joint ventures\u2019.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0
1.15\u00a0 Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
A provision is a present obligation arising from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in
an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits. However, the timing or the amount is uncertain.
Provisions are discounted when the effect of the time value of money is significant using a pre-tax discount
rate.
Reorganisation provisions include employee termination benefits when ING Group is demonstrably
committed to either terminate the employment of current employees according to a detailed formal plan
without possibility of withdrawal, or providing termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage
voluntary redundancy.
A liability is recognised for a levy when the activity that triggers payment, as identified by the relevant
legislation, occurs. For a levy that is triggered upon reaching a minimum threshold, the liability is recognised
only upon reaching the specified minimum threshold.
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will be
confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly
within the control of ING Group, or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognised
because it is either not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation
or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured reliably. Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the
statement of financial position, but are rather disclosed in the notes unless the possibility of the outflow of
economic benefits is remote.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed
only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the
control of ING Group. Contingent assets are recognised in the statement of financial position only when
realisation of the income that arises from such an asset is virtually certain. Contingent assets are disclosed in
the notes when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The recognition and measurement of provisions is an inherently uncertain process involving using
judgement to determine when a present obligation exists and estimates regarding probability,
amounts and timing of cash flows.
ING Group may become involved in governmental, regulatory, arbitration and legal proceedings and
investigations, and may be subject to third-party claims. With or without reference to the above, ING
Group may also offer compensation to certain of its customers. Judgement is required to assess
whether a present obligation exists and to estimate the probability of an unfavourable outcome and
the amount of potential loss. The degree of uncertainty and the method of making the accounting
estimate depends on the individual case, its nature and complexity. Such cases are usually one of a
kind. For the assessment of related provisions, ING Group consults with internal and external legal
experts. Even taking into consideration legal experts\u2019 advice, the probability of an outflow of economic
benefits can still be uncertain and the provision recognised can remain sensitive to the assumptions
used. Reference is made to Note 15 'Provisions'. For proceedings where it is not possible to make a
reliable estimate of the expected financial effect, that could result from the ultimate resolution of the
proceedings, no provision is recognised, however disclosure is included in the financial statements,
where relevant. Reference is made to Note 41 'Legal proceedings'.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions for the reorganisation provision are in estimating the
amounts and timing of cash flows as the announced transformation initiatives are implemented over
a period of several years. Reference is made to Note 15 'Provisions'.

TMBThanachart Bank Public Company Limited
ING Group has a 23% investment in TMBThanachart Bank Public Company Limited (hereafter: TTB), a bank
listed on the stock exchange of Thailand. TTB is providing products and services to wholesale, small and
medium enterprise (SME), and retail customers. TTB is accounted for as an investment in associate based on
the size of ING's shareholding and representation on the Board. TTB is part of the Corporate Line segment.
Other investments in associates and joint ventures
Included in Other investments in associates and joint ventures are mainly financial services and (non-)
financial technology funds or vehicles operating predominantly in Europe, and are individually not significant
to ING Group.
Significant influence for associates in which the interest held is below 20%, is based on the combination of
ING Group\u2019s financial interest and other arrangements, such as participation in the Board of Directors.
The associates and joint ventures of ING are subject to legal and regulatory restrictions regarding the
amount of dividends they can pay to ING. These restrictions are, for example, dependent on the laws in the
country of incorporation for declaring dividends or as a result of minimum capital requirements that are
imposed by industry regulators in the countries in which the associates and joint ventures operate.
In addition, the associates and joint ventures also consider other factors in determining the appropriate
levels of equity needed. These factors and limitations include, but are not limited to, the rating agency and
regulatory views, which can change over time.

Share of results from associates and joint ventures of EUR 205 million (2023: EUR 149 million) as included in
the table above is mainly attributable to our share in the results of TTB of EUR 123\u00a0million (2023: EUR 107
million ) and our share in the result of an associate in Belgium of EUR 77 million following a one-off profit.
The total impairment losses of EUR 35 million relate to associates that are not individually significant.
Impairments and reversal thereof on the investment in TTB
Accumulated impairments on the investment in TTB of EUR 395\u00a0million (2023: EUR 395\u00a0million) were
recognised in previous years. There is no impairment trigger observed as per 31 December 2024. A Value in
Use ('VIU') was estimated following the prolonged increase of the quoted TTB share price over the original
cost price of the investment and the sustained improved broker consensus outlook. As VIU did not exceed
the carrying amount of the investment in TTB no reversal of impairment, was recognised.
Methodology
The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the fair value less costs of disposal and VIU. Fair
value less costs of disposal is based on observable share price. The VIU calculation uses discounted cash flow
projections based on management\u2019s best estimates. VIU is derived using a Dividend Discount Model (DDM)
where distributable equity, i.e. future earnings available to ordinary shareholders, is used as a proxy for
future cash flows. The valuation looks at expected cash flows into perpetuity resulting in two main
components to the VIU calculation:
\u2022 The estimation of future earnings over a 5-year forecast period; and
\u2022 the terminal value being the extrapolation of earnings into perpetuity applying a long-term growth rate.
The earnings that are used for extrapolation represent the stable long-term financial results and position
of TTB, i.e. a steady state. The terminal value comprises the majority of the total VIU.
Key assumptions used in the VIU calculation as at 31 December 2024
The VIU is determined using a valuation model which is subject to multiple management assumptions. The
key assumptions, i.e. those to which the overall result is most sensitive to, are the following:
\u2022 Expected future earnings of TTB: Short- to medium-term expectations are based on forecasts derived
from broker consensus. Longer-term and steady-state expectations into perpetuity are derived using
reasonable and supportable assumptions capturing a combination of TTB specific and market data points;
A capital maintenance charge is applied, which is management\u2019s forecast of the earnings that need to be
withheld in order for TTB to meet target regulatory requirements over the forecast period;
\u2022 Discount rate (cost of equity): 10.96%, based on the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) calculated for TTB
using current market data; and
\u2022 Terminal growth rate: 2.74% consistent with current long term government bond yield in Thailand as a
proxy for a risk-free rate.
The model was evaluated for reasonably possible changes to key assumptions in the model. This reflects the
sensitivity of the VIU to each key assumption on its own and it is possible that more than one favourable
and/or unfavourable change may occur at the same time. The selected rates of reasonably possible changes
to key assumptions are based on external analysts\u2019 forecasts and other relevant external data sources,
which can change period to period. The sensitivity of the VIU to each key assumption is as follows:
\u2022 A favourable change of 10% in the cash flows would result in an increase in VIU of EUR 57 million, while
an unfavourable change of -10% would result in a decrease in VIU of EUR -59 million;\u00a0
\u2022 A favourable change of -1% in the discount rate would result in an increase in VIU of EUR 95 million, while
an unfavourable change of 1% would result in a decrease in VIU of EUR -75 million;
\u2022 A favourable change of 1% in the terminal growth rate would result in an increase in VIU of EUR 68
million, while an unfavourable change of -1% would result in a decrease in VIU of EUR -53 million;

34\u00a0 Fair value of assets and liabilities
a) Valuation methods
The estimated fair values represent the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It is a market-
based measurement, which is based on assumptions that market participants would use and takes into
account the characteristics of the asset or liability that market participants would take into account when
pricing the asset or liability.
Fair values of financial assets and liabilities are based on quoted prices in active market where available.
When such quoted prices are not available, the fair value is determined by using valuation techniques.
b) Valuation control framework
The valuation control framework covers the product approval process (PARP), pricing, market data
assessment and independent price verification (IPV), valuation adjustments, model use, fair value hierarchy
and day one profit or loss. Valuation processes are governed by various governance bodies, including Local
Parameter Committees, the Global Valuation and Impairment Committee, the Market Data Committee and
the Valuation Model Committee. All relevant committees meet on a regular basis (monthly/quarterly), where
the agenda covers the aforementioned valuation controls.
The Global Valuation and Impairment Committee is responsible for the oversight and the approval of the
outcome of impairments (other than loan loss provisions) and valuation processes. It oversees the quality
and coherence of valuation methodologies and performance. The Valuation Model Committee is responsible
for the approval of all valuation models used for the Fair valuation (IFRS) and Prudent Valuation (CRR) of
positions measured at fair value. The Local Parameter Committee discusses the valuation results and
monitors the performance of the valuation activities carried out on local or regional level. The Global
Financial Markets Parameter Committee reviews the consolidated valuation outcome and resulting P&L for
Financial Market products, targeting a globally consistent treatment across Financial Markets. The Market
Data Committee is responsible for the approval of the market data used in valuation.\u00a0
c) Valuation adjustments
Valuation adjustments are an integral part of the fair value. They are the adjustments to the output from a
valuation technique in order to appropriately determine a fair value in accordance with IFRS13. ING considers
various fair value adjustments including Bid-Offer adjustments, Model Risk adjustments, Bilateral Valuation
Adjustments (BVA, consisting of Credit Valuation Adjustments or CVA, and Debit valuation Adjustments or
DVA), Collateral Valuation Adjustment (CollVA) and Funding Valuation Adjustment (FVA).
For financial instruments where the fair value at initial recognition is based on one or more significant
unobservable inputs, a difference between the transaction price and the fair value resulting from the internal
valuation process can occur. Such difference is referred to as Day One Profit or Day One Loss (hereafter:
DOP). ING defers material DOP of instruments with significant unobservable valuation inputs, which are the
financial instruments classified as Level 3 and financial instruments with material unobservable inputs into
CVA which are not necessarily classified as Level 3. The DOP is amortised over the life of the instrument, or
until the significant unobservable inputs become observable, or until the significant unobservable inputs
become non-significant. Both the impact on the profit and loss in 2024 and the DOP reserve is disclosed in
the below table.
Deferred Day One Profit or Loss Reserve
The table below summarises the movement in the aggregate DOP not recognised when financial
instruments were initially recognised, because of the use of valuation techniques for which not all the inputs
were market observable data.

Own Credit Adjustment
Own issued debt and structured notes that are designated at fair value through profit or loss are adjusted for
ING\u2019s own credit risk by means of DVA.
Bid-Offer Adjustment
For positions priced based upon mid-market input parameters, Bid-Offer adjustments are required in order to
reflect the valuation of that position based on bid price or offer price. In practice this adjustment accounts for
the difference in valuation from \u2018mid to bid\u2019 and \u2018mid to offer\u2019 for long and short exposures respectively. In
principle, assets are valued at the bid prices and liabilities are valued at the offer price. For certain assets or
liabilities, where a market-quoted price is not available, the price used is the fair value that is most
representative within the bid-offer spread.
Model Risk Adjustment
Financial instruments that are valued using a valuation model can be subject to model risk. Model risk is the
risk of possible financial loss resulting from a pricing model or model-based parameter deficiencies and/or
uncertainties.
Bilateral Valuation Adjustments (Credit and Debit Valuation Adjustments)\u00a0
Bilateral Valuation Adjustment is the valuation adjustment reflecting the counterparty credit risk of
derivative contracts. It has a bilateral nature, where both the counterparty\u2019s credit risk (i.e. Credit Valuation
Adjustment or CVA) and ING\u2019s own credit risk (Debit Valuation Adjustment or DVA) are taken into account:
\u2022 CVA is the fair value adjustment applicable to derivative instruments to account for the possibility that
the counterparty defaults (i.e. it is the market value of the counterparty\u2019s credit risk).
\u2022 DVA is the fair value adjustment applicable to derivative instruments to account for the possibility that
ING defaults (i.e. it is the market value of ING\u2019s credit risk).
The calculation of CVA and DVA on derivatives is based on their expected exposures, and the counterparties\u2019
and ING\u2019s risk of default, taking into account the collateral agreements as well as netting agreements. The
counterparties\u2019 risk of default is measured by probability of default and expected loss given default, which is
based on market information including credit default swap (CDS) spreads. Where counterparty CDS spreads
are not available, relevant proxy spreads are used. Additionally, wrong-way risk (which occurs when the
probability of default by the counterparty increases or decreases when ING\u2019s exposure to the counterparty
increases (decreases)) and right-way risk (which occurs when the probability of default by the counterparty
increases (decreases) when ING\u2019s exposure to the counterparty decreases (increases)) are included in the
adjustment.
Collateral Valuation Adjustment (CollVA)
Collateral Valuation Adjustment is a fair valuation adjustment applied on derivative instruments to capture
specific features of CSA (Credit Support Annex) with a counterparty that the regular OIS discounting
framework does not capture. Non-standard CSA features may include deviations in relation to the currencies
in which ING posts or receives collateral, deviations in the remuneration rate on collateral which may pay
lower or higher rate than the overnight rate or even no interest at all; other deviations can be posting
securities rather than cash as collateral.
Funding Valuation Adjustment (FVA)
Funding Valuation Adjustment (FVA) is a fair valuation adjustment applied on derivative instruments to
address the asymmetry in funding costs or funding benefits between collateralised and uncollateralised
derivative portfolios. This adjustment is based on the expected exposure profiles of the uncollateralised or
partially collateralised OTC derivatives and market-based funding spreads.
Other Valuation Adjustments
This pertains to other valuation adjustments that are immaterial to ING. Most of the balance consists of the
Market Price Uncertainty (MPU) adjustment in fair value, which accounts for the price uncertainty risk
inherent in the valuation inputs to fair value.
d) Fair value hierarchy
ING Group has categorised its financial instruments that are either measured in the statement of financial
position at fair value or of which the fair value is disclosed, into a three level hierarchy based on the
observability of the valuation inputs. Highest priority is retained to unadjusted quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to valuation techniques supported by
unobservable inputs.
Transfers into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels are made on a quarterly basis at the end of the
reporting period.
Level 1 \u2013 (Unadjusted) quoted prices in active markets
This category includes financial instruments whose fair value is determined directly by reference to
(unadjusted) quoted prices in an active market. A financial instrument is regarded as quoted in an active
market if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer markets, brokered
markets, or principal to principal markets. Those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market
transactions with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Transfers out of Level 1 into Level 2 or Level 3 occur when ING Group establishes that markets are no longer
active and therefore (unadjusted) quoted prices no longer provide reliable pricing information.
Level 2 \u2013 Valuation technique supported by observable inputs
This category includes financial instruments whose fair value is based on market observable inputs, either
directly or indirectly, other than quoted prices included within Level 1. The fair value for financial instruments
in this category can be determined by reference to quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets,
quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted
prices that are observable or market-corroborated inputs. ING analyses how the prices are derived and
determines whether the prices are liquid tradable prices or model-based consensus prices taking various
data as inputs.
For financial instruments that do not have a reference price available, fair value is determined using a
valuation technique (e.g., a model), where inputs in the model are taken from an active market or are
observable, such as interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, implied
volatilities, and credit spreads.
Instruments where inputs are unobservable are classified in this category, provided that the impact of those
unobservable inputs on the overall valuation is insignificant. The notion of significant is particularly relevant
for the distinction between Level 2 and Level 3 assets and liabilities, as the significance assessment of the
valuation input on the entire fair value measurement will determine whether the instrument should be
classified as Level 2 or Level 3. Expert judgement is required on the significance assessment approach.
Level 3 \u2013 Valuation technique supported by unobservable inputs
This category includes financial instruments whose fair value is determined using a valuation technique for
which a significant part of the overall valuation is driven by unobservable valuation inputs. Where valuation
inputs are unobservable, the Group must use the best information available to value the instruments. This
may require internally derived inputs taking into account market participants' assumptions that are
reasonably available, including assumptions on the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to
measure fair value and the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Unobservable inputs may
include, among others, volatility, correlation, spreads to discount rates, default rates, recovery rates,
prepayment rates, and certain credit spreads.

The following methods and assumptions were used by ING Group to estimate the fair value of the financial
instruments:
Equity securities
Instrument description: Equity securities include stocks and shares, corporate investments and private
equity investments.
Valuation: If available, the fair values of publicly traded equity securities and private equity securities are
based on quoted market prices. In the absence of active markets, fair values are estimated by analysing the
investee\u2019s financial position, result, risk profile, prospect, price, earnings comparisons and revenue multiples.
Additionally, reference is made to valuations of peer entities where quoted prices in active markets are
available. For equity securities, best market practice will be applied using the most relevant valuation
method. All non-listed equity investments, including investments in private equity funds, are subject to a
standard review framework which ensures that valuations reflect the fair values.
Fair value hierarchy: The majority of equity securities are publicly traded, and quoted prices are readily and
regularly available. Hence, these securities are classified as Level 1.\u00a0 Equity securities which are not traded in
active markets mainly include corporate investments, fund investments and other equity securities and are
classified as Level 3.
Debt securities
Instrument description: Debt securities include government bonds, financial institutions bonds and Asset-
backed securities (ABS).
Valuation: Where available, fair values for debt securities are generally based on quoted market prices.
Quoted market prices are obtained from an exchange market, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service,
or regulatory service. The quoted prices from non-exchange sources are reviewed on their tradability of
market prices. If quoted prices in an active market are not available, fair value is based on an analysis of
available market inputs, which include consensus prices obtained from one or more pricing services.
Furthermore, fair values are determined by valuation techniques discounting expected future cash flows
using market interest rate curves, referenced credit spreads, maturity of the investment, and estimated
prepayment rates where applicable.
Fair value hierarchy: Government bonds and financial institution bonds are generally traded in active
markets. Where quoted prices are readily and regularly available, they are classified as Level 1. The
remaining positions are classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the trading activity and observability of
prices. Asset backed securities for which no active market is available and a wide discrepancy in quoted
prices exists, are classified as Level 3.
Derivatives
Instrument description: Derivative contracts can either be exchange-traded or over the counter (OTC).
Derivatives include interest rate derivatives, FX derivatives, credit derivatives, equity derivatives and
commodity derivatives.
Valuation: The fair value of exchange-traded derivatives is determined using quoted market prices in an
active market and are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. For instruments that are not actively
traded, fair values are estimated based on valuation techniques. OTC derivatives and derivatives trading in
an inactive market are valued using valuation techniques. The valuation techniques and inputs depend on
the type of derivatives and the nature of the underlying instruments. The principal techniques used to value
these instruments are based on, among others, discounted cash flows, option pricing models and Monte
Carlo simulations. These valuation models calculate the present value of expected future cash flows, based
on \u2018no-arbitrage\u2019 principles. The models are commonly used in the financial industry and inputs to the
validation models are determined from observable market data where possible. Certain inputs may not be
observable in the market, but can be determined from observable prices via valuation model calibration
procedures. These inputs include prices available from exchanges, dealers, brokers or providers of pricing,
yield curves, credit spreads, default rates, recovery rates, dividend rates, volatility of underlying interest
rates, equity prices, and foreign currency exchange rates and reference is made to quoted prices, recently
executed trades, independent market quotes and consensus data, where available. For uncollateralised OTC
derivatives, ING applies Credit Valuation Adjustment to correctly reflect the counterparty credit risk in the
valuation and Debit Valuation Adjustments to reflect the credit risk of ING for its counterparty. In addition, for
these derivatives ING applies Funding Valuation Adjustment. See sections CVA/DVA and FVA in section c)
Valuation Adjustments for more details regarding the calculation.
Fair value hierarchy: The majority of the derivatives are priced using observable inputs and are classified as
Level 2. Derivatives for which the input cannot be implied from observable market data are classified as Level 3.
Loans and receivables
Instrument description: Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable
payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables carried at fair value include trading
loans, being securities lending and similar agreement comparable to collateralised lending, syndicated loans,
loans expected to be sold and receivables with regards to reverse repurchase transactions.
Valuation: The fair value of loans and receivables is generally estimated by discounting expected future cash
flows using a discount rate that reflects credit risk, liquidity, and other current market conditions. The fair
value of mortgage loans is estimated by taking into account prepayment behaviour.
Fair value hierarchy: Loans and receivables are predominantly classified as Level 2. Loans and receivables
for which current market information about similar assets to use as observable, corroborated data for all
significant inputs into a valuation model is not available, are classified as Level 3.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss
Instrument description: Financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss include debt securities and
debt instruments, primarily comprised of structured notes, which are held at fair value under the fair value
option. Besides that, they include derivative contracts and repurchase agreements.
Valuation: The fair values of securities in the trading portfolio and other liabilities at fair value through profit
or loss are based on quoted market prices, where available. For those securities not actively traded, fair
values are estimated based on internal discounted cash flow valuation techniques using interest rates and
credit spreads that apply to similar instruments.
Fair value hierarchy: The majority of the derivatives and debt instruments are classified as Level 2.
Derivatives and debt instruments for which the input cannot be derived from observable market data are
classified as Level 3.
e) Transfers between Level 1 and 2
As a consequence of change in observable inputs, ING recorded a EUR 0.8 billion transfer from Level 2 to
Level 1 in debt securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. No significant
transfers from Level 1 to Level 2 were recorded in the reporting period 2024.
f) Level 3: Valuation techniques and inputs used
Financial assets and liabilities in Level 3 include both assets and liabilities for which the fair value was
determined using (i) valuation techniques that incorporate unobservable inputs as well as (ii) quoted prices
which have been adjusted to reflect that the market was not actively trading at or around the balance sheet
date. Unobservable inputs are inputs which are based on ING\u2019s own assumptions about the factors that
market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, developed based on the best information
available in the circumstances. Unobservable inputs may include volatility, correlation, spreads to discount
rates, default rates and recovery rates, prepayment rates, and certain credit spreads. Valuation techniques
that incorporate unobservable inputs are sensitive to the inputs used.
Of the total amount of financial assets classified as Level 3 as at 31\u00a0December 2024 of EUR 11.0 billion
(31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 9.1 billion), an amount of EUR 9.6 billion (87.2%) (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 7.0 billion,
being 76.7%) is based on unadjusted quoted prices in inactive markets. As ING does not generally adjust
quoted prices using its own inputs, there is no significant sensitivity to ING\u2019s own unobservable inputs.
Furthermore, Level 3 financial assets include EUR 0.1 billion (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.3 billion) which relates
to financial assets that are part of structures that are designed to be fully neutral in terms of market risk.
Such structures include various financial assets and liabilities for which the overall sensitivity to market risk is
insignificant. Whereas the fair value of individual components of these structures may be determined using
different techniques and the fair value of each of the components of these structures may be sensitive to
unobservable inputs, the overall sensitivity is by design not significant.
The remaining EUR 1.3 billion (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 1.8 billion) of the fair value classified in Level 3
financial assets is established using valuation techniques that incorporate certain inputs that are
unobservable.
Of the total amount of financial liabilities classified as Level 3 as at 31\u00a0December 2024 of EUR 0.8 billion
(31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.7 billion), an amount of EUR 0.6 billion (75.7%) (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.4
billion, being 50.0%) is based on unadjusted quoted prices in inactive markets. As ING does not generally
adjust quoted prices using its own inputs, there is no significant sensitivity to ING\u2019s own unobservable inputs.
Furthermore, Level 3 financial liabilities include EUR 0.1 billion (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.3 billion) which
relates to financial liabilities that are part of structures that are designed to be fully neutral in terms of
market risk. As explained above, the fair value of each of the components of these structures may be
sensitive to unobservable inputs, but the overall sensitivity is by design not significant.
The remaining EUR 0.1 billion (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.1 billion) of the fair value classified in Level 3
financial liabilities is established using valuation techniques that incorporates certain inputs that are
unobservable.
The table below provides a summary of the valuation techniques, key unobservable inputs and the lower
and upper range of such unobservable inputs, by type of Level 3 asset/liability. The lower and upper range
mentioned in the overview represent the lowest and highest variance of the respective valuation input as
actually used in the valuation of the different financial instruments. Amounts and percentages stated are
unweighted. The range can vary from period to period subject to market movements and change in Level\u00a03
position. Lower and upper bounds reflect the variability of Level 3 positions and their underlying valuation
inputs in the portfolio, but do not adequately reflect their level of valuation uncertainty. For valuation
uncertainty assessment, reference is made to section Sensitivity analysis of unobservable inputs (Level 3).

1 The abbreviation n.a. stands for not applicable or not available.
Price
For securities where market prices are not available, fair value is measured by comparison with observable
pricing data from similar instruments. Prices of 0% are distressed to the point that no recovery is expected,
while prices significantly in excess of 100% or par are expected to pay a yield above current market rates.
Credit spreads
Credit spread is the premium above a benchmark interest rate required by the market participant to accept
a lower credit quality. Higher credit spreads indicate lower credit quality and a lower value of an asset.
Volatility
Volatility is a measure for variation of the price of a financial instrument or other valuation input over time.
Volatility is one of the key inputs in option pricing models. Typically, the higher the volatility, the higher value
of the option. Volatility varies by the underlying reference (equity, commodity, foreign currency and interest
rates), by strike, and maturity of the option. The minimum level of volatility is 0% and there is no theoretical
maximum.
Correlation
Correlation is a measure of dependence between two underlying references which is relevant for valuing
derivatives and other instruments having more than one underlying reference. High positive correlation
(close to 1) indicates a strong positive (statistical) relationship, where underliers move, everything else equal,
into the same direction. The same holds for a high negative correlation.
Interest rate
An interest rate is the amount of interest due per period, as a proportion of the amount lent, deposited, or
borrowed.
Reset spread
Reset spreads are key inputs to mortgage-linked prepayment swaps valuation. Reset spread is the future
spread at which mortgages will re-price at interest rate reset dates.
Dividend yield
Dividend yield is an important input for equity option pricing models showing how much dividends a
company is expected to pay out each year relative to its share price. Dividend yields are generally expressed
as an annualised percentage of share price.
Payout ratio
Dividend payout ratio is an input that shows the percentage of dividends a company is expected to pay out
each year relative to its net income.
Prepayment rate
Prepayment rate is a key input to mortgage and loan valuation. Prepayment rate is the estimated rate at
which mortgage borrowers will repay their mortgages early, e.g. 5% per year. Prepayment rate and reset
spread are key inputs to mortgage-linked prepayment swaps valuation.

2 Revaluation recognised in other comprehensive income is included on the line \u2018Net change in fair value of debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income\u2019.
In 2024 and 2023, transfers into and out of Level 3 of financial assets mandatorily at fair value mainly relate
to (long- term) reverse repurchase transactions for which the valuation being significantly impacted by
unobservable inputs and no longer significantly impacted by unobservable inputs, respectively.
In 2024, the transfer into Level 3 trading assets consisted of cross currency swap trades, which were
transferred to Level 3 as a result of the valuation being significantly impacted by unobservable inputs.
Conversely, the transfer out of Level 3 in trading assets and non-trading derivatives primarily involved
derivative instruments, as their valuations were no longer significantly impacted by unobservable inputs.
In 2024, the transfer out of Level 3 of financial assets at FVOCI relates to HtC&S portfolio transferred to Level
2 resulting from change in methodology.
In 2023, the transfer into Level 3 trading assets is mainly driven by debt securities that are part of a structure
transferred into level 3 due to market illiquidity which decreased observability for an input.

includes EUR -206 million (2023: EUR 72\u00a0million) of unrealised gains and losses recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
In 2024, the transfers into Level 3 mainly consisted of trading liabilities attributed to cross currency swap
trades transferred into Level 3 as a result of the valuation being significantly impacted by unobservable
inputs. The transfers out of Level 3 for non-trading derivatives are driven by interest rate swap trades, which
were reclassified out of Level 3 as their valuations were no longer influenced by significantly unobservable
inputs.
In 2023, transfers of financial liabilities into and out of Level 3 mainly consisted of structured notes,
measured as designated at fair value through profit or loss. The structured notes were transferred out of
Level 3 as the valuation was no longer impacted by significantly unobservable inputs.
g) Recognition of unrealised gains and losses in Level 3
Amounts recognised in the statement of profit or loss relating to unrealised gains and losses during the year
that relate to Level 3 assets and liabilities are included in the line item \u2018Valuation results and net trading
income\u2019 in the statement of profit or loss.
h) Level 3: Sensitivity analysis of unobservable inputs
Where the fair value of a financial instrument is determined using inputs which are unobservable and which
have a more than insignificant impact on the fair value of the instrument, the actual value of those inputs at
the balance date may be drawn from a range of reasonably possible alternatives. In line with market
practice, the upper and lower bounds of the range of alternative input values reflect a level of valuation
certainty. The actual levels chosen for the unobservable inputs in preparing the financial statements are
consistent with the valuation methodology used for fair valued financial instruments.
In practice, valuation uncertainty is measured and managed per exposure to individual valuation inputs (i.e.
risk factors) at portfolio-level across different product categories. Where the disclosure looks at individual
Level 3 inputs, the actual valuation adjustments may also reflect the benefits of portfolio offsets.
This disclosure does not attempt to indicate or predict future fair value movement. The numbers in isolation
give limited information as in most cases these Level 3 assets and liabilities should be seen in combination
with other instruments (for example as a hedge) that are classified as Level 2.
The valuation uncertainty in the table below is broken down by related risk class rather than by product. The
possible impact of a change of unobservable inputs in the fair value of financial instruments where
unobservable inputs are significant to the valuation is as follows:

1 In accordance with IFRS and for the purpose of this disclosure, the carrying amount of financial instruments with an immediate on demand feature is presented as fair value.
2In 2023, debt securities included a commercial paper issued classified as Level 3. Following a change in valuation technique in 2024, it transferred to Level 2.
The aggregation of the fair values presented above does not represent, and should not be construed as
representing, the underlying value of ING Group. These fair values were calculated for disclosure purposes
only. The carrying amount of financial instruments presented in the above table includes, when applicable,
the fair value hedge adjustment, this explains why (for these cases) the carrying amount approximates fair
value.
Loans and advances to banks
For short-term receivables from banks, carrying amounts represent a reasonable estimate of the fair value.
The fair value of long-term receivables from banks is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows
using a discount rate based on specific available market data, such as interest rates and appropriate
spreads, that reflects current credit risk or quoted bonds.
Loans and advances to customers
For short-term loans, carrying amounts represent a reasonable estimate of the fair value. The fair value of
long-term loans is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a discount rate that reflects
current credit risk, current interest rates, and other current market conditions where applicable. The fair
value of mortgage loans is estimated by taking into account prepayment behaviour. Loans with similar
characteristics are aggregated for calculation purposes.
Securities at amortised cost
Where available, fair values for debt securities are generally based on quoted market prices. Quoted market
prices are obtained from an exchange market, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory
service. The quoted prices from non-exchange sources are reviewed on their tradability of market prices. If
quoted prices in an active market are not available, fair value is based on an analysis of available market
inputs, which include consensus prices obtained from one or more pricing services. Furthermore, fair values
are determined by valuation techniques discounting expected future cash flows using market interest rate
curves, referenced credit spreads, maturity of the investment, and estimated prepayment rates where
applicable.
Deposits from banks
For short-term payables to banks, carrying amounts represent a reasonable estimate of the fair value. The
fair value of long-term payables to banks is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a
discount rate based on available market interest rates and appropriate spreads that reflect ING\u2019s own credit
risk.
Customer deposits
In the current interest rate environment, there is significant embedded value in our on-demand deposits.
However, for the purpose of this disclosure and in accordance with IFRS, the carrying amounts of deposits
with an immediate on demand feature are presented as fair value.
The fair value of deposits with fixed contractual terms has been estimated based on discounting future cash
flows using the interest rates currently applicable to deposits of similar maturities.
Debt securities in issue
The fair value of debt securities in issue is generally based on quoted market prices, or if not available, on
estimated prices by discounting expected future cash flows using a current market interest rate and credit
spreads applicable to the yield, credit quality and maturity.
Subordinated loans
The fair value of publicly traded subordinated loans are based on quoted market prices when available.
Where no quoted market prices are available, fair value of the subordinated loans is estimated using
discounted cash flows based on interest rates and credit spreads that apply to similar instruments.

All financial assets and liabilities are recognised initially at fair value. The fair value of a financial instrument
on initial recognition is generally its transaction price (that is, the fair value of the consideration given or
received). However, if there is a material difference between the transaction price and the fair value of
financial instruments whose fair value is based on a valuation technique using significant unobservable
inputs, the entire 'day one' difference (a \u2018Day One Profit or Loss\u2019) is deferred. ING Group defers the Day One
Profit or Loss relating to financial instruments classified as Level 3 and financial instruments with material
unobservable inputs into CVA which are not necessarily classified as Level 3. The deferred Day One Profit or
Loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss over the life of the transaction until the transaction
matures, or until the significant unobservable inputs become observable, or until the significant
unobservable inputs become non-significant. In all other cases, ING Group recognises the difference as a gain
or loss at inception.

Selecting the most appropriate price requires judgement and could result in different estimates of fair value.\u00a0 \u2022 Valuation techniques are subjective in nature and significant judgement is involved in establishing fair values for certain financial assets and liabilities. Valuation techniques involve various assumptions regarding pricing factors. The use of different valuation techniques and assumptions could produce significantly different estimates of fair value.\u00a0 \u2022 Price testing is performed to assess whether the process of valuation has led to an appropriate fair value of the position and to minimise the potential risks of economic losses due to incorrect or misused models. \u2022 Assessing whether a market is active, and whether an input is observable and significant, requires judgement. ING Group categorises its financial instruments that are either measured in the statement of financial position at fair value or of which the fair value is disclosed, into a three-level hierarchy based on the observability and significance of the valuation inputs. The use of different approaches to assess whether a market is active, whether an input is observable, and whether an unobservable input is significant could produce different classification within the fair value hierarchy as well as potentially different deferral of the Day One Profit or Loss. \u2022 Reference is made to Note 34 'Fair value of assets and liabilities' and to the \u2018Market risk\u2019 paragraph in the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report for the basis of the determination of the fair value of financial instruments and related sensitivities. Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:The calculation of ECL requires a number of judgements and estimates. In particular: \u2022 ING Group makes various assumptions about the risk of default, the credit loss rates in case of a default and expected future cash flows. For collective provisions, ING Group applies significant judgement when estimating modelled parameters such as PD, LGD and EAD, including the selection and calibration of relevant models. For Stage 3 individual provisioning, the determination and probabilities of restructuring and recovery scenarios, as well as the amount and timing of expected future cash flows, may be particularly subjective. \u2022 Forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios used in impairment assessments are uncertain in nature. The use of alternate forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios can produce significantly different estimates of ECL. This is demonstrated in the sensitivity analysis in the \u2018Risk Management\u2019 section of the annual report, where the un-weighted ECL under each of the three scenarios for some significant portfolios is disclosed. \u2022 When determining whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly (criteria for identifying a significant increase in credit risk), ING Group considers reasonable and supportable information to compare the risk of default occurring at reporting date with the risk of a default occurring at initial recognition of the financial asset. Whilst judgement is required in applying a PD rating to each financial asset, there is significant judgement used in determining the Stage allocation PD banding thresholds. The process of comparing a financial asset\u2019s PD with the PD banding thresholds determines its ECL Stage. Assets in Stage 1 are allocated a 12-month ECL, and those in Stage 2 are allocated a lifetime ECL, and the difference is often significant. As such, the judgement made in assigning financial asset PDs and the PD banding thresholds constitutes a significant judgement. Analysis of the sensitivity associated with the assessment of a significant increase in credit risk is presented in the \u2018Risk Management\u2019 section of the Annual Report. \u2022 Judgement is exercised in management\u2019s evaluation of whether there is objective evidence that exposures are credit-impaired. \u2022 To reflect the risks that are not properly captured by the ECL models (including climate risk), a number of management adjustments to the model-based ECL were necessary as at 31 December 2024, which required significant judgement. Reference is made to the \u2018Management adjustments applied this reporting period\u2019 paragraph in the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:Identification of impairment indicators as well as indicators of potential reversal of previous impairments of ING Group\u2019s investment in TMBThanachart Bank Public Company Limited (hereafter: TTB), an associate, requires significant judgement. When there is objective evidence of impairment or indicators that prior period impairment losses no longer exist or may have decreased, value in use (VIU) needs to be determined. Estimation of VIU involves significant estimates and management assumptions. See Note 8 \u2018Investments in associates and joint ventures\u2019.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:The recognition and measurement of provisions is an inherently uncertain process involving using judgement to determine when a present obligation exists and estimates regarding probability, amounts and timing of cash flows. ING Group may become involved in governmental, regulatory, arbitration and legal proceedings and investigations, and may be subject to third-party claims. With or without reference to the above, ING Group may also offer compensation to certain of its customers. Judgement is required to assess whether a present obligation exists and to estimate the probability of an unfavourable outcome and the amount of potential loss. The degree of uncertainty and the method of making the accounting estimate depends on the individual case, its nature and complexity. Such cases are usually one of a kind. For the assessment of related provisions, ING Group consults with internal and external legal experts. Even taking into consideration legal experts\u2019 advice, the probability of an outflow of economic benefits can still be uncertain and the provision recognised can remain sensitive to the assumptions used. Reference is made to Note 15 'Provisions'. For proceedings where it is not possible to make a reliable estimate of the expected financial effect, that could result from the ultimate resolution of the proceedings, no provision is recognised, however disclosure is included in the financial statements, where relevant.

1.5.4\u00a0 Derivatives and hedge accounting
IFRS 9 includes an accounting policy choice to defer the adoption of IFRS 9 hedge accounting and to continue
with hedge accounting under IAS 39. ING Group decided to exercise this accounting policy choice and did not
adopt IFRS 9 hedge accounting as of 1 January 2018. Furthermore, ING Group applies fair value hedge
accounting for portfolio hedges of interest rate risk (macro fair value hedges) in accordance with the EU
carve-out version of IAS 39.
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and
are subsequently measured at fair value. Fair values are obtained from quoted market prices in active
markets, including market transactions and valuation techniques (such as discounted cash flow models and
option pricing models), as appropriate. All derivatives are carried as assets when their fair value is positive
and as liabilities when their fair value is negative. Fair value movements on derivatives are presented in profit
or loss in 'Valuation result and net trading income', except for derivatives in either a formal hedge
relationship or so-called economic hedges that are not in a formal hedge accounting relationship where a
component is presented separately in interest result in line with ING Group\u2019s risk management strategy.
Embedded derivatives are separated from financial liabilities and other non-financial contracts and
accounted for as a derivative if, and only if:
1. the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to the
economic characteristics and risks of the host contract;
2. a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a
derivative; and
3. the combined instrument is not measured at fair value with changes in fair value reported in profit or loss.
If an embedded derivative is separated, the host contract is accounted for as a similar free-standing
contract.
The method of recognising the resulting fair value gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is
designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. ING Group designates
certain derivatives as hedges of the fair value of recognised assets or liabilities or firm commitments (fair
value hedge), hedges of highly probable future cash flows attributable to a recognised asset or liability or a
forecast transaction (cash flow hedge), or hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation. Hedge
accounting is used for derivatives designated in this way provided certain criteria are met.
At the inception of the transaction, ING Group documents the relationship between hedging instruments and
hedged items, its risk management objective, together with the methods selected to assess hedge
effectiveness. ING Group also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis,
of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in
fair values or cash flows of the hedged items.
Fair value hedges
Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recognised in
the statement of profit or loss, together with fair value adjustments to the hedged item attributable to the
hedged risk. If the hedge relationship no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the cumulative
adjustment of the hedged item is, in the case of interest-bearing instruments, amortised through the
statement of profit or loss over the remaining term of the original hedge or recognised directly when the
hedged item is derecognised. For non-interest bearing instruments, the cumulative adjustment of the
hedged item is recognised in the statement of profit or loss only when the hedged item is derecognised.
Cash flow hedges
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow
hedges are recognised in the Other Comprehensive Income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective
portion is recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss. Amounts accumulated in the Other
Comprehensive Income are recycled to the statement of profit or loss in the periods in which the hedged
item affects net result. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, or when a hedge no longer meets the
criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in the Other Comprehensive Income at
that time remains in the Other Comprehensive Income and is recognised when the forecast transaction is
ultimately recognised in the statement of profit or loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to
occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in the Other Comprehensive Income is transferred
immediately to the statement of profit or loss.
Net investment hedges
Hedges of net investments in foreign operations are accounted for in a similar way to cash flow hedges. Any
gain or loss on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge is recognised in the
Other Comprehensive Income and the gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised
immediately in the statement of profit or loss. Gains and losses accumulated in the Other Comprehensive
Income are included in the statement of profit or loss when the foreign operation is disposed.
Benchmark rate reform \u2013 specific policies for hedges directly affected by the benchmark rate
reform
As explained in the \u2018Impact of the benchmark rate reform\u2019 paragraph of the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section, a
fundamental review of important interest rate benchmarks has been carried out, and is still ongoing for
some of them (for instance, WIBOR).
Given that the benchmark rate reform may have various accounting implications, the IASB has undertaken a
two-phase project. Phase 1 (issued in 2019) addresses those issues that affect financial reporting before the
replacement of an existing benchmark. Phase 2 (issued in 2020) focuses on issues that may affect financial
reporting when the existing benchmark rate is reformed or replaced.
Phase 1 amendments to IFRS allow ING Group to apply a set of temporary exceptions to continue hedge
accounting even when there is uncertainty about contractual cash flows arising from the reform. Under
these temporary exceptions, interbank-offered rates are assumed to continue unaltered for the purposes of
hedge accounting until such time as the uncertainty is resolved.
More specifically, the following temporary reliefs are part of the Phase 1 amendments:
\u2022 Highly probable requirement for cash flow hedges
When determining whether a forecast transaction is highly probable, it is assumed that the interest rate
benchmark on which the hedged cash flows are based is not altered as a result of the reform.
\u2022 Prospective assessment of hedge effectiveness
When performing the prospective assessment it is assumed that the interest rate benchmark on which
the hedged cash flows are based is not altered as a result of the reform.
\u2022 Retrospective assessment of hedge effectiveness
When performing the retrospective assessment, hedges are allowed to pass the assessment even if
actual results are outside the 80-125% range, during the period of uncertainty arising from the
benchmark rate reform.
\u2022 Designation of a component of an item as a hedged item
For hedges of the benchmark component of interest rate risk affected by the reform, the separately
identifiable requirement only needs to be demonstrated at the inception of such hedging relationships
(including macro hedges).
The amendments are relevant given that ING Group hedges and applies hedge accounting to the benchmark
interest rate exposure part of the benchmark rate reform. ING Group hedges are being progressively
amended, where necessary, to incorporate the new benchmark rates. Temporary exceptions under Phase 1
continued to be relevant for ING Group as at 31 December 2024 (mainly for WIBOR hedges).
ING Group will completely cease to apply the amendments when this uncertainty is no longer present or
when the hedging relationship is discontinued. Refer to note \u2018Risk management/ Impact of the benchmark
rate reform\u2019 for the disclosures relating to the application of the amendments as part of Phase 1.
Phase 2 amendments require that hedge accounting continues on transition to risk free rates provided that
the modifications made to financial instruments are those necessary to implement the benchmark rate
reform and that the new basis for calculating cash flows is \u2018economically equivalent\u2019 to the previous basis.
Particularly, Phase 2 amendments allow the continuation of hedging relationships, subject to amending their
documentation to reflect changes in hedged instruments, hedging instruments, hedged risk, and/or the
method for measuring effectiveness during the transition to the new benchmark rates. By applying these
mandatory amendments, ING Group avoids hedge accounting discontinuations when modifying both
hedged items and hedging instruments (and related hedge documentation) as a consequence of the
benchmark rate reform that would otherwise be required in the absence of Phase 2 amendments. During
2024, Phase 2 continued to be relevant for ING Group when ING actually transitioned its financial
instruments (designated in hedge accounting relationships) to the new benchmark rates.
More specifically, the following temporary reliefs are part of the Phase 2 amendments:
Relief from discontinuing hedging relationships
\u2022 Amendments in the hedge documentation as a consequence of changes required by the benchmark rate
reform do not result in the discontinuation of the hedge relationship nor the designation of a new hedge
relationship. The changes can be in the form of designating an alternative benchmark rate as a hedged
risk, the description of the hedging instrument, the description of the hedged item, or the method to
measure the effectiveness.
\u2022 When the hedged item is amended as a consequence of the benchmark rate reform (or if the hedge has
previously been discontinued), amounts accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve are deemed to be
based on the Risk-Free Rate (RFR). This results in the release of the cash flow hedge reserve to profit or
loss in the same period or periods in which the hedged cash flows that are now based on the RFR affect
profit or loss.
\u2022 When the items within a designated group of hedged items are amended as a consequence of the
benchmark rate reform, the hedging strategy remains and is not discontinued. As items within the
hedged group transition at different times from the benchmark rates to RFRs, they are transferred to sub-
groups of instruments that reference RFRs as the hedged risk. The existing benchmark rates remain
designated as the hedged risk for the other sub-group of hedged items, until they are also updated to
reference the new RFR. The usual hedge accounting requirements are applied to the hedge relationship in
its entirety.
\u2022 For the assessment of retrospective hedge effectiveness, the cumulative fair value changes may be reset
to zero when the exception to the retrospective assessment of the Phase 1 reliefs ends. This decision is
made separately for each hedging relationship (i.e., on a hedge-by-hedge basis).
\u2022 Temporary relief from having to meet the separately identifiable requirement: a RFR is considered a
separately identifiable risk component if it is reasonably expected to meet the separately identifiable
requirement within 24 months from the date it is first designated as a non-contractually specified risk
component (i.e. when the entity first designates the RFR as a non-contractually specified risk
component). This relief applies to each RFR on a rate-by-rate basis.
As explained above, Phase 1 and Phase 2 benchmark rate amendments to IFRS provide specific hedge
accounting reliefs that allow hedge accounting relationships to continue when the benchmark rate reform is
ongoing. Phase 1 reliefs cease to apply when uncertainty arising from the benchmark rate reform is no
longer present with respect to the timing and amount of the benchmark rate-based cash flows of the
relevant instruments, or when the hedging instrument is discontinued. It is ING Group\u2019s policy to cease to
apply Phase 1 reliefs when the applicable contract (either hedging instrument or hedged item) is actually
modified. As a result, for these hedge accounting relationships the applicable Phase 1 reliefs ceased to apply
and Phase 2 became applicable. Refer to note \u2018Risk management/Impact of the benchmark rate reform\u2019 for
the disclosures relating to the application of the amendments as part of Phase 2.
Non-trading derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting
Derivative instruments that are used by ING Group as part of its risk management strategies, but which do
not qualify for hedge accounting under ING Group\u2019s accounting policies, are presented as non-trading
derivatives. Non-trading derivatives are measured at fair value with changes in the fair value taken to the
statement of profit or loss.

hedged risk. If the hedge relationship no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the cumulative
adjustment of the hedged item is, in the case of interest-bearing instruments, amortised through the
statement of profit or loss over the remaining term of the original hedge or recognised directly when the
hedged item is derecognised. For non-interest bearing instruments, the cumulative adjustment of the
hedged item is recognised in the statement of profit or loss only when the hedged item is derecognised.
Cash flow hedges
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow
hedges are recognised in the Other Comprehensive Income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective
portion is recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss. Amounts accumulated in the Other
Comprehensive Income are recycled to the statement of profit or loss in the periods in which the hedged
item affects net result. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, or when a hedge no longer meets the
criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in the Other Comprehensive Income at
that time remains in the Other Comprehensive Income and is recognised when the forecast transaction is
ultimately recognised in the statement of profit or loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to
occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in the Other Comprehensive Income is transferred
immediately to the statement of profit or loss.
Net investment hedges
Hedges of net investments in foreign operations are accounted for in a similar way to cash flow hedges. Any
gain or loss on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge is recognised in the
Other Comprehensive Income and the gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised
immediately in the statement of profit or loss. Gains and losses accumulated in the Other Comprehensive
Income are included in the statement of profit or loss when the foreign operation is disposed.
Benchmark rate reform \u2013 specific policies for hedges directly affected by the benchmark rate
reform
As explained in the \u2018Impact of the benchmark rate reform\u2019 paragraph of the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section, a
fundamental review of important interest rate benchmarks has been carried out, and is still ongoing for
some of them (for instance, WIBOR).
Given that the benchmark rate reform may have various accounting implications, the IASB has undertaken a
two-phase project. Phase 1 (issued in 2019) addresses those issues that affect financial reporting before the
replacement of an existing benchmark. Phase 2 (issued in 2020) focuses on issues that may affect financial
reporting when the existing benchmark rate is reformed or replaced.
Phase 1 amendments to IFRS allow ING Group to apply a set of temporary exceptions to continue hedge
accounting even when there is uncertainty about contractual cash flows arising from the reform. Under
these temporary exceptions, interbank-offered rates are assumed to continue unaltered for the purposes of
hedge accounting until such time as the uncertainty is resolved.
More specifically, the following temporary reliefs are part of the Phase 1 amendments:
\u2022 Highly probable requirement for cash flow hedges
When determining whether a forecast transaction is highly probable, it is assumed that the interest rate
benchmark on which the hedged cash flows are based is not altered as a result of the reform.
\u2022 Prospective assessment of hedge effectiveness
When performing the prospective assessment it is assumed that the interest rate benchmark on which
the hedged cash flows are based is not altered as a result of the reform.
\u2022 Retrospective assessment of hedge effectiveness
When performing the retrospective assessment, hedges are allowed to pass the assessment even if
actual results are outside the 80-125% range, during the period of uncertainty arising from the
benchmark rate reform.
\u2022 Designation of a component of an item as a hedged item
For hedges of the benchmark component of interest rate risk affected by the reform, the separately
identifiable requirement only needs to be demonstrated at the inception of such hedging relationships
(including macro hedges).
The amendments are relevant given that ING Group hedges and applies hedge accounting to the benchmark
interest rate exposure part of the benchmark rate reform. ING Group hedges are being progressively
amended, where necessary, to incorporate the new benchmark rates. Temporary exceptions under Phase 1
continued to be relevant for ING Group as at 31 December 2024 (mainly for WIBOR hedges).
ING Group will completely cease to apply the amendments when this uncertainty is no longer present or
when the hedging relationship is discontinued. Refer to note \u2018Risk management/ Impact of the benchmark
rate reform\u2019 for the disclosures relating to the application of the amendments as part of Phase 1.
Phase 2 amendments require that hedge accounting continues on transition to risk free rates provided that
the modifications made to financial instruments are those necessary to implement the benchmark rate
reform and that the new basis for calculating cash flows is \u2018economically equivalent\u2019 to the previous basis.
Particularly, Phase 2 amendments allow the continuation of hedging relationships, subject to amending their
documentation to reflect changes in hedged instruments, hedging instruments, hedged risk, and/or the
method for measuring effectiveness during the transition to the new benchmark rates. By applying these
mandatory amendments, ING Group avoids hedge accounting discontinuations when modifying both
hedged items and hedging instruments (and related hedge documentation) as a consequence of the
benchmark rate reform that would otherwise be required in the absence of Phase 2 amendments. During
2024, Phase 2 continued to be relevant for ING Group when ING actually transitioned its financial
instruments (designated in hedge accounting relationships) to the new benchmark rates.
More specifically, the following temporary reliefs are part of the Phase 2 amendments:
Relief from discontinuing hedging relationships
\u2022 Amendments in the hedge documentation as a consequence of changes required by the benchmark rate
reform do not result in the discontinuation of the hedge relationship nor the designation of a new hedge
relationship. The changes can be in the form of designating an alternative benchmark rate as a hedged
risk, the description of the hedging instrument, the description of the hedged item, or the method to
measure the effectiveness.
\u2022 When the hedged item is amended as a consequence of the benchmark rate reform (or if the hedge has
previously been discontinued), amounts accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve are deemed to be
based on the Risk-Free Rate (RFR). This results in the release of the cash flow hedge reserve to profit or
loss in the same period or periods in which the hedged cash flows that are now based on the RFR affect
profit or loss.
\u2022 When the items within a designated group of hedged items are amended as a consequence of the
benchmark rate reform, the hedging strategy remains and is not discontinued. As items within the
hedged group transition at different times from the benchmark rates to RFRs, they are transferred to sub-
groups of instruments that reference RFRs as the hedged risk. The existing benchmark rates remain
designated as the hedged risk for the other sub-group of hedged items, until they are also updated to
reference the new RFR. The usual hedge accounting requirements are applied to the hedge relationship in
its entirety.
\u2022 For the assessment of retrospective hedge effectiveness, the cumulative fair value changes may be reset
to zero when the exception to the retrospective assessment of the Phase 1 reliefs ends. This decision is
made separately for each hedging relationship (i.e., on a hedge-by-hedge basis).
\u2022 Temporary relief from having to meet the separately identifiable requirement: a RFR is considered a
separately identifiable risk component if it is reasonably expected to meet the separately identifiable
requirement within 24 months from the date it is first designated as a non-contractually specified risk
component (i.e. when the entity first designates the RFR as a non-contractually specified risk
component). This relief applies to each RFR on a rate-by-rate basis.
As explained above, Phase 1 and Phase 2 benchmark rate amendments to IFRS provide specific hedge
accounting reliefs that allow hedge accounting relationships to continue when the benchmark rate reform is
ongoing. Phase 1 reliefs cease to apply when uncertainty arising from the benchmark rate reform is no
longer present with respect to the timing and amount of the benchmark rate-based cash flows of the
relevant instruments, or when the hedging instrument is discontinued. It is ING Group\u2019s policy to cease to
apply Phase 1 reliefs when the applicable contract (either hedging instrument or hedged item) is actually
modified. As a result, for these hedge accounting relationships the applicable Phase 1 reliefs ceased to apply
and Phase 2 became applicable. Refer to note \u2018Risk management/Impact of the benchmark rate reform\u2019 for
the disclosures relating to the application of the amendments as part of Phase 2.
Non-trading derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting
Derivative instruments that are used by ING Group as part of its risk management strategies, but which do
not qualify for hedge accounting under ING Group\u2019s accounting policies, are presented as non-trading
derivatives. Non-trading derivatives are measured at fair value with changes in the fair value taken to the
statement of profit or loss.

Fair value hedges
Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recognised in
the statement of profit or loss, together with fair value adjustments to the hedged item attributable to the
hedged risk. If the hedge relationship no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the cumulative
adjustment of the hedged item is, in the case of interest-bearing instruments, amortised through the
statement of profit or loss over the remaining term of the original hedge or recognised directly when the
hedged item is derecognised. For non-interest bearing instruments, the cumulative adjustment of the
hedged item is recognised in the statement of profit or loss only when the hedged item is derecognised.
Cash flow hedges
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow
hedges are recognised in the Other Comprehensive Income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective
portion is recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss. Amounts accumulated in the Other
Comprehensive Income are recycled to the statement of profit or loss in the periods in which the hedged
item affects net result. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, or when a hedge no longer meets the
criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in the Other Comprehensive Income at
that time remains in the Other Comprehensive Income and is recognised when the forecast transaction is
ultimately recognised in the statement of profit or loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to
occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in the Other Comprehensive Income is transferred
immediately to the statement of profit or loss.
Net investment hedges
Hedges of net investments in foreign operations are accounted for in a similar way to cash flow hedges. Any
gain or loss on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge is recognised in the
Other Comprehensive Income and the gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised
immediately in the statement of profit or loss. Gains and losses accumulated in the Other Comprehensive
Income are included in the statement of profit or loss when the foreign operation is disposed.
Benchmark rate reform \u2013 specific policies for hedges directly affected by the benchmark rate
reform
As explained in the \u2018Impact of the benchmark rate reform\u2019 paragraph of the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section, a
fundamental review of important interest rate benchmarks has been carried out, and is still ongoing for
some of them (for instance, WIBOR).

Phase 1 amendments to IFRS allow ING Group to apply a set of temporary exceptions to continue hedge
accounting even when there is uncertainty about contractual cash flows arising from the reform. Under
these temporary exceptions, interbank-offered rates are assumed to continue unaltered for the purposes of
hedge accounting until such time as the uncertainty is resolved.
More specifically, the following temporary reliefs are part of the Phase 1 amendments:
\u2022 Highly probable requirement for cash flow hedges

benchmark on which the hedged cash flows are based is not altered as a result of the reform.
\u2022 Prospective assessment of hedge effectiveness

\u2022 Retrospective assessment of hedge effectiveness
When performing the retrospective assessment, hedges are allowed to pass the assessment even if
actual results are outside the 80-125% range, during the period of uncertainty arising from the
benchmark rate reform.
\u2022 Designation of a component of an item as a hedged item
For hedges of the benchmark component of interest rate risk affected by the reform, the separately
identifiable requirement only needs to be demonstrated at the inception of such hedging relationships
(including macro hedges).
The amendments are relevant given that ING Group hedges and applies hedge accounting to the benchmark
interest rate exposure part of the benchmark rate reform. ING Group hedges are being progressively
amended, where necessary, to incorporate the new benchmark rates. Temporary exceptions under Phase 1
continued to be relevant for ING Group as at 31 December 2024 (mainly for WIBOR hedges).
ING Group will completely cease to apply the amendments when this uncertainty is no longer present or
when the hedging relationship is discontinued. Refer to note \u2018Risk management/ Impact of the benchmark
rate reform\u2019 for the disclosures relating to the application of the amendments as part of Phase 1.
Phase 2 amendments require that hedge accounting continues on transition to risk free rates provided that
the modifications made to financial instruments are those necessary to implement the benchmark rate
reform and that the new basis for calculating cash flows is \u2018economically equivalent\u2019 to the previous basis.
Particularly, Phase 2 amendments allow the continuation of hedging relationships, subject to amending their
documentation to reflect changes in hedged instruments, hedging instruments, hedged risk, and/or the
method for measuring effectiveness during the transition to the new benchmark rates. By applying these
mandatory amendments, ING Group avoids hedge accounting discontinuations when modifying both
hedged items and hedging instruments (and related hedge documentation) as a consequence of the
benchmark rate reform that would otherwise be required in the absence of Phase 2 amendments. During
2024, Phase 2 continued to be relevant for ING Group when ING actually transitioned its financial
instruments (designated in hedge accounting relationships) to the new benchmark rates.
More specifically, the following temporary reliefs are part of the Phase 2 amendments:
Relief from discontinuing hedging relationships
\u2022 Amendments in the hedge documentation as a consequence of changes required by the benchmark rate
reform do not result in the discontinuation of the hedge relationship nor the designation of a new hedge
relationship. The changes can be in the form of designating an alternative benchmark rate as a hedged
risk, the description of the hedging instrument, the description of the hedged item, or the method to
measure the effectiveness.
\u2022 When the hedged item is amended as a consequence of the benchmark rate reform (or if the hedge has
previously been discontinued), amounts accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve are deemed to be
based on the Risk-Free Rate (RFR). This results in the release of the cash flow hedge reserve to profit or
loss in the same period or periods in which the hedged cash flows that are now based on the RFR affect
profit or loss.
\u2022 When the items within a designated group of hedged items are amended as a consequence of the
benchmark rate reform, the hedging strategy remains and is not discontinued. As items within the
hedged group transition at different times from the benchmark rates to RFRs, they are transferred to sub-
groups of instruments that reference RFRs as the hedged risk. The existing benchmark rates remain
designated as the hedged risk for the other sub-group of hedged items, until they are also updated to
reference the new RFR. The usual hedge accounting requirements are applied to the hedge relationship in
its entirety.
\u2022 For the assessment of retrospective hedge effectiveness, the cumulative fair value changes may be reset
to zero when the exception to the retrospective assessment of the Phase 1 reliefs ends. This decision is
made separately for each hedging relationship (i.e., on a hedge-by-hedge basis).
\u2022 Temporary relief from having to meet the separately identifiable requirement: a RFR is considered a
separately identifiable risk component if it is reasonably expected to meet the separately identifiable
requirement within 24 months from the date it is first designated as a non-contractually specified risk
component (i.e. when the entity first designates the RFR as a non-contractually specified risk
component). This relief applies to each RFR on a rate-by-rate basis.
As explained above, Phase 1 and Phase 2 benchmark rate amendments to IFRS provide specific hedge
accounting reliefs that allow hedge accounting relationships to continue when the benchmark rate reform is
ongoing. Phase 1 reliefs cease to apply when uncertainty arising from the benchmark rate reform is no
longer present with respect to the timing and amount of the benchmark rate-based cash flows of the
relevant instruments, or when the hedging instrument is discontinued. It is ING Group\u2019s policy to cease to
apply Phase 1 reliefs when the applicable contract (either hedging instrument or hedged item) is actually
modified. As a result, for these hedge accounting relationships the applicable Phase 1 reliefs ceased to apply
and Phase 2 became applicable. Refer to note \u2018Risk management/Impact of the benchmark rate reform\u2019 for
the disclosures relating to the application of the amendments as part of Phase 2.

1.5.5\u00a0 Offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset, and the net amount is reported in the statement of
financial position, when ING Group has a current legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts
and intends to either settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Offsetting is applied to derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements and cash pooling
agreements. A significant portion of offsetting is applied to derivatives and related cash margin balances,
which are either directly cleared through central clearing parties or cleared through clearing members of
central clearing parties. For more information, reference is made to Note 39 \u2018Offsetting financial assets and

1.5.6\u00a0 Impairment of financial assets
An Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model is applied to financial assets accounted for at AC or FVOCI such as loans,
debt securities and lease receivables, as well as off-balance sheet items such as undrawn loan
commitments, certain financial guarantees issued, and undrawn committed revolving credit facilities. Under
the ECL model, ING Group calculates the ECL by considering on a discounted basis the cash shortfall it would
incur in case of a default and multiplying the shortfall by the probability of a default occurring. The ECL is the
sum of the probability-weighted outcomes. The ECL estimates are unbiased and include reasonable and
supportable information about past events, current conditions, and forecasts of future economic conditions.
ECL is recognised on the balance sheet as loan loss provisions (LLP).
Three-stage approach
Financial assets are classified in one of the below three stages at each reporting date. A financial asset can
move between Stages during its lifetime. The Stages are based on changes in credit quality since initial
recognition and defined as follows:
\u2022 Stage 1
Financial assets that have not had a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition (i.e. no Stage
2 or 3 triggers apply). Assets are classified as Stage 1 upon initial recognition (with the exception of
purchased or originated credit impaired (POCI) assets) and ECL is determined by the probability that a
default occurs in the next 12 months (12 months ECL);
\u2022 Stage 2
Financial assets showing a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. For assets in Stage 2,
ECL reflects an estimate on the credit losses over the remaining maturity of the asset (lifetime ECL); or
\u2022 Stage 3
Financial assets that are credit-impaired. Also for these assets, ECL is determined over the remaining
maturity of the asset.
Significant increase in credit risk
ING Group established a framework, incorporating quantitative and qualitative indicators, to identify and
assess significant increases in credit risk (SICR). This is used to determine the appropriate ECL Stage for each
financial asset. Reference is made to the \u2018Criteria for identifying a significant increase in credit risk (SICR)\u2019 in
the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
An asset that is in Stage 2 will move back to Stage 1 when none of the above criteria are in place anymore.
However, if the asset was moved to Stage 2 based on the forbearance status, then the asset stays in Stage 2
for at least 24 months. If the asset was classified as Stage 2 due to the '30 days past due' trigger, then the
asset is moved back to Stage 1 only after three months from when the trigger no longer applies.
Credit-impaired financial assets (Stage 3)
Financial assets are assessed for credit-impairment at each reporting date and more frequently when
circumstances warrant further assessment. Evidence of credit-impairment includes arrears of over 90 days
on any material credit obligation, indications that the borrower is experiencing significant financial difficulty,
a breach of contract, bankruptcy or distressed restructuring. The definition of 'credit-impaired' under IFRS 9
(Stage 3) is aligned with the definition of 'default' used by ING Group for internal risk management purposes,
which is also the definition used for regulatory purposes.
An asset (other than a POCI asset) that is in Stage 3 will move back to Stage 2 when, as at the reporting date,
it is no longer considered to be credit-impaired, subject to certain probation periods. The asset will migrate
back to Stage 1 when its credit risk at the reporting date is no longer considered to have increased
significantly since initial recognition.
Macroeconomic scenarios
ING Group has established a quarterly process whereby forward-looking macroeconomics scenarios and
probability weightings are developed for the purpose of ECL. ING Group applies data predominantly from a
leading service provider enriched with the internal ING Group view. A baseline, up-scenario and down-
scenario are determined to reflect an unbiased and probability-weighted ECL amount. As a baseline
scenario, ING Group applies the market-neutral view combining consensus forecasts for economic variables
such as unemployment rates, GDP growth, house prices, commodity prices, and short-term interest rates.
Applying market consensus in the baseline scenario ensures unbiased estimates of the expected credit
losses.
The alternative scenarios are based on observed forecast errors in the past, adjusted for the risks affecting
the economy today and the forecast horizon. The probabilities assigned are based on the likelihoods of
observing the three scenarios and are derived from confidence intervals on a probability distribution. The
forecasts for the economic variables are adjusted on a quarterly basis.
The probability weights applied to each of the three scenarios
ING Group uses three macroeconomic scenarios when determining IFRS 9 ECL (baseline, upside and
downside). The management approach used to determine the weights of each scenario and in selecting the
parts of the distribution of forecast errors from which the weights are derived is disclosed in the 'Alternative
Scenarios and Probability Weights' section. Additionally, this approach is detailed in the sensitivity analysis
within the 'Risk Management' section of the Annual Report.
Measurement of ECL
ING Group applies a collective assessment method to measure ECL for Stage 1, Stage 2, and certain Stage 3
assets. Other credit-impaired assets subject to ECL measurement apply the individual assessment method.
Collectively assessed assets (Stages 1 to 3)
For collective assessed assets, ING Group applies a model-based approach. ECL is determined by, expressed
simplistically, multiplying the probability of default (PD) with the loss given default (LGD) and exposure at
default (EAD), adjusted for the time value of money. Assets that are collectively assessed are grouped on the
basis of similar credit-risk characteristics, taking into account the loan type, industry, geographic location,
collateral type, past due status and other relevant factors. These characteristics are relevant to the
estimation of future cash flows for groups of such assets by being indicative of the debtors\u2019 ability to pay all
amounts due according to the contractual terms of the assets being evaluated and the loss in case the
debtor is not able to pay all amounts due.
For Stage 3 assets, the PD equals 100% and the LGD and EAD represent a lifetime view of the losses based on
characteristics of defaulted facilities.
For the measurement of ECL, ING Group\u2019s expected credit loss models (PD, LGD, EAD) used for regulatory
purposes have been adjusted. These adjustments include removing embedded prudential conservatism
(such as floors) and converted through-the-cycle estimates to point-in-time estimates. The models assess
ECL on the basis of forward-looking macroeconomic forecasts and other inputs. For most financial assets,
the expected life is limited to the remaining maturity. For overdrafts and certain revolving credit facilities,
such as credit cards, the maturity is estimated based on historical data as these do not have a fixed term or
repayment schedule.
Individually assessed assets (Stage 3)
ING Group estimates ECL for individually significant credit-impaired financial assets within Stage 3 on an
individual basis. ECL for these Individually assessed assets are determined using the discounted expected
future cash flow method. To determine expected future cash flows, one or more scenarios are used. Each
scenario is analysed based on the probability of occurrence and includes forward-looking information.
In determining the scenarios, all relevant factors impacting the future cash flows are taken into account.
These include expected developments in credit quality, business and economic forecasts, and estimates of if/
when recoveries will occur, taking into account ING Group\u2019s restructuring/recovery strategy.
The best estimate of ECL is calculated as the weighted-average of the shortfall (gross carrying amount
minus discounted expected future cash flow using the original EIR) per scenario, based on best estimates of
expected future cash flows. Recoveries can arise from, among other things, the repayment of the loan,
collateral recovery and the sale of the asset. Cash flows from collateral and other credit enhancements are
included in the measurement of ECL of the related financial asset when it is part of or integral to the
contractual terms of the financial asset and the credit enhancement is not recognised separately. For the
individual assessment, with granular (company- or asset-specific) scenarios, specific factors can have a
larger impact on the future cash flows than macroeconomic factors.
When a financial asset is credit-impaired, interest income is no longer recognised based on the gross
carrying amount of the asset. Instead, interest income is calculated by applying the original effective
interest rate to the amortised cost of the asset, which is the gross carrying amount less the related loan loss
provision.
Purchased or Originated Credit Impaired (POCI) assets
POCI assets are financial assets that are credit-impaired on initial recognition. Impairment on a POCI asset is
determined based on lifetime ECL from initial recognition. POCI assets are recognised initially at an amount net
of ECL and are measured at AC using a credit-adjusted effective interest rate. In subsequent periods, any
changes to the estimated lifetime ECL are recognised in profit or loss. Favourable changes are recognised as an
impairment gain if the lifetime ECL at the reporting date is lower than the estimated lifetime ECL at origination.
Write-off and debt forgiveness
Loans and debt securities are written off (either partially or in full) when there is no reasonable expectation
of recovery and/or collectability of amounts due. The following events can lead to a write-off:
\u2022 After a restructuring has been completed and there is a high improbability of recovery of part of the
remaining loan exposure (including partial debt forgiveness);
\u2022 In a bankruptcy liquidation scenario;
\u2022 After divestment or sale of a credit facility at a discount; and
\u2022 Specific fraud cases with no recourse options.
When a loan is uncollectable, it is written off against the related loan loss provision. Subsequent recoveries of
amounts previously written off are recognised in \u2018Addition to loan loss provisions\u2019 in the Consolidated
statement of profit or loss.
Debt forgiveness (or debt settlement) involves write-off, but also involves the forgiveness of a legal
obligation, in whole or in part. This means that ING Group forfeits the legal right to recover the debt. As a
result, the financial asset needs to be derecognised.
Presentation of ECL
ECL for financial assets measured at AC is deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. For debt
instruments at FVOCI, the ECL is recognised in OCI, instead of deducting it from the carrying amount of the
asset. ECL also reflects any credit losses related to the portion of the loan commitment that is expected to
be drawn down over the remaining life of the instrument. The ECL on issued financial guarantee contracts, in
scope of IFRS 9 and not measured at FVPL, is recognised as liabilities and presented in Other provisions. ECL
are presented in profit or loss in Addition to loan loss provision.
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The calculation of ECL requires a number of judgements and estimates. In particular:
\u2022 ING Group makes various assumptions about the risk of default, the credit loss rates in case of a
default and expected future cash flows. For collective provisions, ING Group applies significant
judgement when estimating modelled parameters such as PD, LGD and EAD, including the
selection and calibration of relevant models. For Stage 3 individual provisioning, the determination
and probabilities of restructuring and recovery scenarios, as well as the amount and timing of
expected future cash flows, may be particularly subjective.
\u2022 Forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios used in impairment assessments are uncertain in
nature. The use of alternate forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios can produce significantly
different estimates of ECL. This is demonstrated in the sensitivity analysis in the \u2018Risk Management\u2019
section of the annual report, where the un-weighted ECL under each of the three scenarios for
some significant portfolios is disclosed.
\u2022 When determining whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly (criteria
for identifying a significant increase in credit risk), ING Group considers reasonable and
supportable information to compare the risk of default occurring at reporting date with the risk of a
default occurring at initial recognition of the financial asset. Whilst judgement is required in
applying a PD rating to each financial asset, there is significant judgement used in determining the
Stage allocation PD banding thresholds. The process of comparing a financial asset\u2019s PD with the
PD banding thresholds determines its ECL Stage. Assets in Stage 1 are allocated a 12-month ECL,
and those in Stage 2 are allocated a lifetime ECL, and the difference is often significant. As such,
the judgement made in assigning financial asset PDs and the PD banding thresholds constitutes a
significant judgement. Analysis of the sensitivity associated with the assessment of a significant
increase in credit risk is presented in the \u2018Risk Management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
\u2022 Judgement is exercised in management\u2019s evaluation of whether there is objective evidence that
exposures are credit-impaired.
\u2022 To reflect the risks that are not properly captured by the ECL models (including climate risk), a
number of management adjustments to the model-based ECL were necessary as at 31 December
2024, which required significant judgement. Reference is made to the \u2018Management adjustments
applied this reporting period\u2019 paragraph in the \u2018Risk management\u2019 section of the Annual Report.
The recoverable amount, being the higher of fair value less cost of disposal and value in use, of the
investment in associate and joint venture is determined when there is an indication of potential (reversal of)
impairment. An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of the investment exceeds its
recoverable amount. Goodwill on acquisitions of interests in associates and joint ventures is not tested
separately for impairment, but is assessed as part of the carrying amount of the investment. An impairment
loss is subsequently reversed if there is indication of a reversal and there is a change in the estimates used to
determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the recoverable
amount exceeds its carrying amount, but cannot exceed the original impairment loss.
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
Identification of impairment indicators as well as indicators of potential reversal of previous
impairments of ING Group\u2019s investment in TMBThanachart Bank Public Company Limited (hereafter:

Measurement of ECL
ING Group applies a collective assessment method to measure ECL for Stage 1, Stage 2, and certain Stage 3
assets. Other credit-impaired assets subject to ECL measurement apply the individual assessment method.
Collectively assessed assets (Stages 1 to 3)
For collective assessed assets, ING Group applies a model-based approach. ECL is determined by, expressed
simplistically, multiplying the probability of default (PD) with the loss given default (LGD) and exposure at
default (EAD), adjusted for the time value of money. Assets that are collectively assessed are grouped on the
basis of similar credit-risk characteristics, taking into account the loan type, industry, geographic location,
collateral type, past due status and other relevant factors. These characteristics are relevant to the
estimation of future cash flows for groups of such assets by being indicative of the debtors\u2019 ability to pay all
amounts due according to the contractual terms of the assets being evaluated and the loss in case the
debtor is not able to pay all amounts due.
For Stage 3 assets, the PD equals 100% and the LGD and EAD represent a lifetime view of the losses based on
characteristics of defaulted facilities.
For the measurement of ECL, ING Group\u2019s expected credit loss models (PD, LGD, EAD) used for regulatory
purposes have been adjusted. These adjustments include removing embedded prudential conservatism
(such as floors) and converted through-the-cycle estimates to point-in-time estimates. The models assess
ECL on the basis of forward-looking macroeconomic forecasts and other inputs. For most financial assets,
the expected life is limited to the remaining maturity. For overdrafts and certain revolving credit facilities,
such as credit cards, the maturity is estimated based on historical data as these do not have a fixed term or
repayment schedule.
Individually assessed assets (Stage 3)
ING Group estimates ECL for individually significant credit-impaired financial assets within Stage 3 on an
individual basis. ECL for these Individually assessed assets are determined using the discounted expected
future cash flow method. To determine expected future cash flows, one or more scenarios are used. Each
scenario is analysed based on the probability of occurrence and includes forward-looking information.
In determining the scenarios, all relevant factors impacting the future cash flows are taken into account.
These include expected developments in credit quality, business and economic forecasts, and estimates of if/
when recoveries will occur, taking into account ING Group\u2019s restructuring/recovery strategy.
The best estimate of ECL is calculated as the weighted-average of the shortfall (gross carrying amount
minus discounted expected future cash flow using the original EIR) per scenario, based on best estimates of
expected future cash flows. Recoveries can arise from, among other things, the repayment of the loan,
collateral recovery and the sale of the asset. Cash flows from collateral and other credit enhancements are
included in the measurement of ECL of the related financial asset when it is part of or integral to the
contractual terms of the financial asset and the credit enhancement is not recognised separately. For the
individual assessment, with granular (company- or asset-specific) scenarios, specific factors can have a
larger impact on the future cash flows than macroeconomic factors.
When a financial asset is credit-impaired, interest income is no longer recognised based on the gross
carrying amount of the asset. Instead, interest income is calculated by applying the original effective
interest rate to the amortised cost of the asset, which is the gross carrying amount less the related loan loss
provision.
1.16\u00a0 Irrevocable Payment Commitments on contributions to SRF and DGS
ING makes contributions to the Single Resolution Fund (SRF) and Deposit Guarantee Schemes (DGS). The
annual contributions are paid in cash or, in some cases, partly using Irrevocable Payment Commitments
(IPCs) that become payable if and when called. Cash contributions are accounted for as levies as described in
section 1.15 above, while IPCs are disclosed as contingent liabilities in Note 41 'Contingent liabilities and
commitments'. Cash collateral posted on IPCs to the SRF is accounted for as an interest bearing financial
asset at amortised cost. Government bonds posted as collateral on IPCs to DGS continue to be recognised as
assets of ING as securities at amortised cost.
Financial assets received as collateral
The financial assets received as collateral that can be sold or repledged in absence of default by the owner
of the collateral consists of securities obtained through reverse repurchase transactions and securities
borrowing transactions.
These transactions are generally conducted under standard market terms for most repurchase transactions
and the recipient of the collateral has an unrestricted right to sell or repledge it, provided that the collateral
(or equivalent collateral) is returned to the counterparty at term.

1.7\u00a0 Segment reporting
An operating segment is a distinguishable component of ING Group, engaged in providing products or
services, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Executive Board of ING Group and the
Management Board Banking (together they make up the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM)) who
decide which resources to allocate to the segment and assess its performance. A geographical area is a
distinguishable component of ING Group engaged in providing products or services within a particular
economic environment that is subject to risks and returns that differ from those of segments operating in
other economic environments.
The CODM reviews and assesses ING Group's performance primarily by line of business. As a result, ING
identified five operating segments which are also disclosed as reportable segments. Additionally, the CODM
receives information by geographical area based on the location of the office where transactions originate.
Recognition and measurement of segment results are in line with the accounting policies as described in
Note 1 'Basis of preparation and material accounting policy information'. The results for the period for each
reportable segment are after intercompany and intersegment eliminations and are those reviewed by the
CODM to assess performance of the segments. Corporate expenses are allocated to business lines based on
time spent by head office personnel, the relative number of staff, or on the basis of income, expenses and/or
assets of the segment. Interest income per segment is reported as net interest income because
management relies primarily on net (rather than gross) interest revenue to assess the performance of the
segments.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DescriptionOfAccountingPolicyForSegmentReportingExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:549300NYKK9MWM7GGW15", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "f-667": { "value": "
1.8\u00a0 Hyperinflation accounting
Since the second quarter of 2022, T\u00fcrkiye has been considered a hyperinflationary economy for accounting
purposes. As ING Group has a subsidiary in T\u00fcrkiye, ING Group has applied IAS 29 \u2018Financial Reporting in
Hyperinflationary Economies\u2019 to its operations since 2022 as if the economy in T\u00fcrkiye had always been
hyperinflationary. Given that ING Group presents its results in EUR, comparatives do not get restated. As a
result, the impact of the first-time application of IAS 29, as well as the effect for that year, were both
recognised in 2022. IAS 29 continued to be relevant for ING\u2019s operations in T\u00fcrkiye in 2023 and 2024. Under
IAS 29, the results of the operations in T\u00fcrkiye should be stated in terms of the current purchasing power at
the reporting date. For that, the consumer price index (CPI) as determined by the Turkish Statistical Institute
was used. The CPI for T\u00fcrkiye (2003=100) at 31 December 2024 was 2,684.55, at 31 December 2023 it was
1,859.38 and for 2022 it was 1,128.45 (movement 2024: 44.38%; movement 2023: 64.77%, movement 2022:
64.27%). The effect of such restatement for inflation in the current period of the statement of
comprehensive income and the balance sheet has been recognised in the statement of profit or loss within
\u2018Other net income\u2019 as a \u2018Net monetary gain or loss\u2019. The net monetary loss for the period represents the loss
of purchasing power by the net monetary position (monetary assets exceeding monetary liabilities) of ING
T\u00fcrkiye.
After the application of the above restatement procedures in Turkish Lira under IAS 29, the financial position
and the results for the period of ING T\u00fcrkiye were translated and presented in EUR at the exchange rate on
31 December 2024. For the statement of comprehensive income this is in contrast with the usual translation
procedures where items of comprehensive income are translated at the exchange rate at the date of
transaction. Furthermore, ING Group chose to present both the restatement effect resulting from restating
ING Group\u2019s interest in the equity of ING T\u00fcrkiye as required by IAS 29, and the translation effect from
translating at a closing rate that differs from the previous closing rate, in the Currency translation reserve.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfHyperinflationaryReportingExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:549300NYKK9MWM7GGW15", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "f-668": { "value": "
1.9\u00a0 Foreign currency translation
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of ING Group\u2019s entities are measured using the currency
of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). The
Consolidated financial statements are presented in euros, which is ING Group\u2019s presentation currency.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rate prevailing
at the date of the transactions. Exchange rate differences resulting from the settlement of such transactions
and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in
foreign currencies are recognised in the statement of profit or loss, except when deferred in equity as part of
qualifying cash flow hedges or qualifying net investment hedges.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using
the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Exchange rate differences on non-monetary items, measured at fair value through profit or loss, are reported as
part of the fair value gain or loss. Non-monetary items are retranslated at the date the fair value is determined.
Exchange rate differences on non-monetary items measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
are included in other comprehensive income and get accumulated in the revaluation reserve in equity.
Exchange rate differences in the statement of profit or loss are generally included in \u2018Valuation results and
net trading income\u2019. Reference is made to Note 22 \u2018Valuation results and net trading income\u2019, which
discloses the amounts included in the statement of profit or loss. Exchange rate differences relating to the
disposal of debt and FVPL equity securities are considered to be an inherent part of the capital gains and
losses recognised in Investment income. As mentioned below, in Group companies relating to the disposals
of group companies, any exchange rate difference deferred in equity is recognised in the statement of profit
or loss in \u2018Result on disposal of group companies\u2019. Reference is also made to Note 19 \u2018Equity\u2019, which discloses
the amounts included in the statement of profit or loss.
Group companies
The results and financial positions of all group companies that have a functional currency different from the
presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
\u2022 Assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of the statement of financial position;\u00a0
\u2022 Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable
approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case
income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions). However, under hyperinflation
accounting, income and expenses of ING T\u00fcrkiye are translated at the closing rate; and\u00a0
\u2022 All resulting exchange rate differences are recognised in a separate component of equity.\u00a0
On consolidation, exchange rate differences arising from the translation of a monetary item that forms part
of the net investment in a foreign operation, and of borrowings and other instruments designated as hedges
of such investments, are taken to shareholders\u2019 equity. When a foreign operation is sold, the corresponding
exchange rate differences are recognised in the statement of profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on sale.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising from the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets
and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DescriptionOfAccountingPolicyForForeignCurrencyTranslationExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:549300NYKK9MWM7GGW15", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "f-669": { "value": "

recoverable amount. Goodwill on acquisitions of interests in associates and joint ventures is not tested
separately for impairment, but is assessed as part of the carrying amount of the investment. An impairment
loss is subsequently reversed if there is indication of a reversal and there is a change in the estimates used to

indicators that prior period impairment losses no longer exist or may have decreased, value in use
(VIU) needs to be determined. Estimation of VIU involves significant estimates and management
assumptions. See Note 8 \u2018Investments in associates and joint ventures\u2019.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0
Impairment of goodwill and other non-financial assets
ING Group assesses at each reporting period whether there is an indication that a non-financial asset may be
impaired. Irrespective of whether there is an indication of impairment, intangible assets with an indefinite
useful life, including goodwill acquired in a business combination, and intangible assets not yet available for
use, are tested annually for impairment. Goodwill is allocated to groups of cash generating units (CGUs) for
the purpose of impairment testing. These groups of CGUs represent the lowest level at which goodwill is
monitored for internal management purposes. Goodwill is tested for impairment by comparing the carrying
value of the group of CGUs to the recoverable amount of that group of CGUs. Impairment of goodwill, if
applicable, is included in the statement of profit or loss in Other operating expenses and is not subsequently
reversed.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DescriptionOfAccountingPolicyForImpairmentOfAssetsExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:549300NYKK9MWM7GGW15", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "f-675": { "value": "
1.11\u00a0 Property and equipment
Property in own use
Land and buildings held for own use are stated at fair value at the balance sheet date. Depreciation is
recognised on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life (in general 20\u201350 years). On disposal, the
related revaluation reserve is transferred to retained earnings.
Equipment
Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. The cost of the assets
is depreciated on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives, which are generally as follows: two to
five years for data processing equipment, and four to ten years for fixtures and fittings.
Disposals of property and equipment
The difference between the proceeds on disposal and net carrying value is recognised in the statement of
profit or loss under Other net income.
Right-of-use assets
ING Group as the lessee
A lessee is required to recognise a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset
and a corresponding liability representing its obligation to make lease payments at the date at which the
leased asset is available for use by ING Group. Each lease payment is allocated between the repayment of the
liability and finance cost. The finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce
a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The right-of-use
asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset\u2019s useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis.
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities
include the net present value of the following lease payments:
\u2022 Fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable;
\u2022 Variable lease payments that are based on an index or a rate;
\u2022 Amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;
\u2022 The exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and
\u2022 Payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising that option.
The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily
determined, the lessee\u2019s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the lessee would have to
pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value in a similar economic environment
with similar terms and conditions.
Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the amount of the initial measurement of the lease
liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received
and any initial direct costs and restoration costs.
The right-of-use asset is included in the statement of financial position line-item \u2018Property and equipment\u2019.
The lease liability is included in the statement of financial position line-item \u2018Other liabilities\u2019. Refer to Note 9
\u2018Property and equipment\u2019 and to Note 16 \u2018Other liabilities\u2019.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the right-of-use asset amortises using a straight-line method to the
income statement over the life of the lease. The lease liability increases for the accrual of interest and
decreases when payments are made. Any remeasurement of the lease liability due to a lease modification
or other reassessment results in a corresponding adjustment to the carrying amount of the right-of-use
asset.

1.12\u00a0 ING Group as lessor
When ING Group acts as a lessor, a distinction should be made between finance leases and operating leases.
For ING Group as a lessor, these are mainly finance leases and are therefore not included in 'Property and
equipment'. Instead, the present value of the lease payments is recognised as a receivable under Loans and
advances to customers or Loans and advances to banks. The difference between the gross receivable and
the present value of the receivable is unearned finance lease income. Lease income is recognised over the
term of the lease using the net investment method (before tax), which reflects a constant periodic rate of
return.
Lease income
The proceeds from leasing out assets under operating leases are recognised on a straight-line basis over the
life of the lease agreement. Lease payments received in respect of finance leases when ING Group is the
lessor are divided into an interest component (recognised as interest income) and a repayment component
based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the lessor\u2019s net investment in the lease.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DescriptionOfAccountingPolicyForLeasesExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:549300NYKK9MWM7GGW15", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "f-677": { "value": "

1.14\u00a0 Taxation
Income tax on the result for the year consists of current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in the
statement of profit or loss but it is recognised directly in equity if the tax relates to items that are recognised
directly in equity.
Uncertain tax positions are assessed continually by ING Group and in case it is probable that there will be a
cash outflow, a current tax liability is recognised.
Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, for temporary differences arising between
the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the Consolidated statement of financial
position. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or
substantively enacted at the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred
income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are not discounted.
Deferred tax assets are recognised when it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against
which the temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred income tax is provided for temporary differences
arising from investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the timing of the reversal of the
temporary difference is controlled by ING Group and it is probable that the difference will not reverse in the
foreseeable future. The tax effects of income-tax losses available for carry forward are recognised as an
asset where it is probable that future taxable profits will be available, against which these losses can be
utilised.
Fair value remeasurements of debt and equity instruments measured at FVOCI and cash flow hedges are
recognised directly in equity. Deferred tax related to this fair value remeasurement is also recognised
directly in equity and is subsequently recognised in the statement of profit or loss together with the deferred
gain or loss.
ING Group \u2019s business lines operate in different geographical areas: the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Rest
of Europe and Rest of the World. The geographical analyses are based on the location of the office from
which the transactions are originated and do not include countries where ING only has representation
offices. The Netherlands is ING Group\u2019s country of domicile.
In order to increase ING Group\u2019s tax transparency, additional financial information on a per country basis has
been included in this disclosure: Tax paid represents all income tax paid to and/or received from tax
authorities in the current year, irrespective of the fiscal year to which these payments or refunds relate.
Total assets by country do not include intercompany balances and reconcile to the total assets in the
consolidated statement of financial position of ING Group.
ING Group is subject to top-up tax (Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules (Pillar Two)) in relation to its
operations in countries where the effective tax rate falls below 15%. This includes Switzerland, Ireland and
Bulgaria as a result of their lower nominal tax rates, as well as Singapore, where special local tax rates for
certain types of income reduce the effective tax rate.
ING Group has applied a temporary mandatory relief from deferred tax accounting for the impacts of the
top-up tax and accounts for it as a current tax when it is incurred. The total top-up tax that is expected to be
paid by ING Group per jurisdiction over 2024 amounts to EUR 9.5 million.

1.15\u00a0 Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
A provision is a present obligation arising from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in
an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits. However, the timing or the amount is uncertain.
Provisions are discounted when the effect of the time value of money is significant using a pre-tax discount
rate.
Reorganisation provisions include employee termination benefits when ING Group is demonstrably
committed to either terminate the employment of current employees according to a detailed formal plan
without possibility of withdrawal, or providing termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage
voluntary redundancy.
A liability is recognised for a levy when the activity that triggers payment, as identified by the relevant
legislation, occurs. For a levy that is triggered upon reaching a minimum threshold, the liability is recognised
only upon reaching the specified minimum threshold.
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will be
confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly
within the control of ING Group, or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognised
because it is either not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation
or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured reliably. Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the
statement of financial position, but are rather disclosed in the notes unless the possibility of the outflow of
economic benefits is remote.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed
only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the
control of ING Group. Contingent assets are recognised in the statement of financial position only when
realisation of the income that arises from such an asset is virtually certain. Contingent assets are disclosed in
the notes when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
Significant judgements and critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The recognition and measurement of provisions is an inherently uncertain process involving using
judgement to determine when a present obligation exists and estimates regarding probability,
amounts and timing of cash flows.
ING Group may become involved in governmental, regulatory, arbitration and legal proceedings and
investigations, and may be subject to third-party claims. With or without reference to the above, ING
Group may also offer compensation to certain of its customers. Judgement is required to assess
whether a present obligation exists and to estimate the probability of an unfavourable outcome and
the amount of potential loss. The degree of uncertainty and the method of making the accounting
estimate depends on the individual case, its nature and complexity. Such cases are usually one of a
kind. For the assessment of related provisions, ING Group consults with internal and external legal
experts. Even taking into consideration legal experts\u2019 advice, the probability of an outflow of economic
benefits can still be uncertain and the provision recognised can remain sensitive to the assumptions
used. Reference is made to Note 15 'Provisions'. For proceedings where it is not possible to make a
reliable estimate of the expected financial effect, that could result from the ultimate resolution of the
proceedings, no provision is recognised, however disclosure is included in the financial statements,
where relevant. Reference is made to Note 41 'Legal proceedings'.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions for the reorganisation provision are in estimating the
amounts and timing of cash flows as the announced transformation initiatives are implemented over
a period of several years. Reference is made to Note 15 'Provisions'.

1.16\u00a0 Irrevocable Payment Commitments on contributions to SRF and DGS
ING makes contributions to the Single Resolution Fund (SRF) and Deposit Guarantee Schemes (DGS). The
annual contributions are paid in cash or, in some cases, partly using Irrevocable Payment Commitments
(IPCs) that become payable if and when called. Cash contributions are accounted for as levies as described in
section 1.15 above, while IPCs are disclosed as contingent liabilities in Note 41 'Contingent liabilities and

1.17\u00a0 Other liabilities
Defined benefit plans
The net defined benefit asset or liability recognised in the statement of financial position in respect of
defined benefit pension plans is the fair value of the plan assets less the present value of the defined benefit
obligation at the balance sheet date.
Changes in plan assets include mainly:
\u2022 Return on plan assets are recognised as staff costs in the statement of profit or loss. It is determined
using a high quality corporate bond rate (identical to the discount rate used in determining the defined
benefit obligation) at the start of the reporting period; and\u00a0
\u2022 Remeasurements which are recognised in Other comprehensive income.\u00a0
The defined benefit obligation is calculated by internal and external independent qualified actuaries through
actuarial models and calculations using the projected unit credit method. This method considers expected
future payments required to settle the obligation resulting from employee service in the current and prior
periods, discounted using a high quality corporate bond rate. Inherent in these actuarial models are
assumptions including discount rates, rates of increase in future salary and benefit levels, mortality rates,
consumer price index and the expected level of indexation. The assumptions are based on available market
data as well as management expectations and are updated regularly.\u00a0
Changes in the defined benefit obligation include mainly:
\u2022 Service cost, which is recognised as staff costs in the statement of profit or loss;\u00a0
\u2022 Interest expenses are recognised as staff costs in the Statement of profit or loss. It is determined using a
high quality corporate bond rate at the start of the period;
\u2022 Remeasurements which are recognised in Other comprehensive income (equity) and not recycled to the
Statement of profit or loss;
\u2022 Any past service cost relating to a plan amendment is recognised in profit or loss in the period of the plan
amendment; and
\u2022 Gains and losses on curtailments and settlements are recognised in the Statement of profit or loss when
the curtailment or settlement occurs.
The recognition of a net defined benefit asset in the Consolidated statement of financial position is limited to
the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plans or reductions in
future contributions to the plans.
Defined contribution plans
For defined contribution plans, ING Group pays contributions to publicly or privately administered pension
insurance plans on a mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis. ING Group has no further payment
obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are recognised as staff expenses in the
profit or loss when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash
refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.
Other post-employment obligations
Some group companies provide other post-employment benefits to former employees. The entitlement to
these benefits is usually conditional on the employee remaining in service up to retirement age and the
completion of a minimum service period. The expected costs of these benefits are accrued over the period of
employment using an accounting methodology similar to that for defined benefit pension plans.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DescriptionOfAccountingPolicyForEmployeeBenefitsExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:549300NYKK9MWM7GGW15", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "f-688": { "value": "
1.18\u00a0 Treasury shares
Treasury shares (own equity instruments bought back by ING Group or its subsidiaries) are deducted from
Equity (Other reserves). No gain or loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss when purchasing,
selling or cancelling these shares. Treasury shares are not taken into account when calculating earnings per
ordinary share or dividend per ordinary share as they are not considered to be outstanding.
Treasury shares can be purchased by ING as part of a share buyback programme. If a share buyback is
executed by a broker and the agreement with the broker is irrevocable, ING has a contractual obligation to
purchase its own shares that is unavoidable once it signs the agreement with the broker. This is the moment
when ING recognises a financial liability measured at the present value of the redemption amount with a
corresponding reduction in equity (Retained earnings). During the share buyback programme, ING settles
this liability for the actual purchase price paid for the shares bought on a daily basis. Actual shares bought
back and held by ING are presented as Treasury shares within Other reserves in equity.

1.19\u00a0 Income recognition
Interest
Interest income and expense are recognised in the statement of profit or loss using the effective interest
method. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or a
financial liability and of allocating the interest income or interest expense over the relevant period. The
effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through
the expected life of the financial instrument or, when appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying
amount of the financial asset or financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, ING Group
estimates cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment
options) but does not consider future credit losses.
The calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an
integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums or discounts. Once a
financial asset or a group of similar financial assets has been written down as a result of an impairment loss,
interest income is recognised using the rate of interest used to discount the future cash flows for the
purpose of measuring the impairment loss.
Interest results on instruments classified at Amortised Cost, assets measured at FVOCI and derivatives in a
formal hedge accounting relationship are presented in \u2018Interest income (expense) using effective interest
rate method\u2019. Interest result on financial assets and liabilities voluntarily designated as at FVPL and
derivatives in so-called economic hedges and instruments designated at fair value are presented in \u2018Other
interest income (expense)\u2019. Interest result on all other financial assets and liabilities at FVTPL is recognised in
\u2018Valuation results and net trading income\u2019.
Fees and commissions
Fees and commissions are generally recognised as the service is provided. Loan commitment fees for loans
that are likely to be drawn down are deferred (together with related direct costs) and recognised as an
adjustment to the effective interest rate on the loan. Loan syndication fees are recognised as income when
the performance obligation has been satisfied based on the particular contract and ING Group has retained
no part of the loan package for itself or has retained a part at the same effective interest rate as the other
participants. Commission and fees arising from negotiating, or participating in the negotiation of, a
transaction for a third party \u2013 such as the arrangement of the acquisition of shares or other securities or the
purchase or sale of businesses \u2013 are recognised on completion of the underlying transaction. Portfolio and
other management advisory and service fees are recognised based on the applicable service contracts as
the service is provided. Asset management fees related to investment funds and investment contract fees
are recognised on a pro-rata basis over the period the service is provided. The same principle is applied for
wealth management, financial planning and custody services that are continuously provided over an
extended period of time. Fees received and paid between banks for payment services are classified as
commission income and expenses.
Lease income
The proceeds from leasing out assets under operating leases are recognised on a straight-line basis over the
life of the lease agreement. Lease payments received in respect of finance leases when ING Group is the
lessor are divided into an interest component (recognised as interest income) and a repayment component
based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the lessor\u2019s net investment in the lease.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DescriptionOfAccountingPolicyForRecognitionOfRevenue", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:549300NYKK9MWM7GGW15", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "f-690": { "value": "

1.20\u00a0 Expense recognition
Expenses are recognised in the statement of profit or loss as incurred or when a decrease in future economic
benefits related to a decrease in an asset or an increase in a liability has arisen that can be measured

perform their service for ING Group\u2019s customers. Costs are generally presented as \u2018Commission expenses\u2019 if
they are specific, incremental, directly attributable and identifiable to generate commission income.\u00a0
Share-based payments
ING Group only engages in share-based payment transactions with its staff and directors. Share-based
payment expenses are recognised as a staff expense over the vesting period. A corresponding increase in
equity is recognised for equity-settled share-based payment transactions. A liability is recognised for cash-
settled share-based payment transactions. The fair value of equity-settled share-based payment
transactions are measured at the grant date, and the fair value of cash-settled share-based payment

1.22\u00a0 Statement of cash flows
The statement of cash flows is prepared in accordance with the indirect method, distinguishing cash flows
from operating, investing and financing activities. In the net cash flow from operating activities, the result
before tax is adjusted for those items in the statement of profit or loss and changes in items per the
statement of financial position, which do not result in actual cash flows during the year.
For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, Cash and cash equivalents include deposits from banks and
loans and advances to banks that are on demand. Furthermore, it includes treasury bills and other eligible
bills shorter than three months. Investments qualify as a cash equivalent if they are readily convertible to a
known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Cash flows arising from foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the
exchange rates at the date of the cash flows.
The net cash flow shown in respect of Loans and advances to customers relates only to transactions
involving actual payments or receipts. The Addition to loan loss provision, which is deducted from the item
Loans and advances to customers in the statement of financial position, has been adjusted accordingly from
the result before tax and is shown separately in the statement of cash flows.
The difference between the Net cash flow in accordance with the statement of cash flows and the change
between the opening and closing balance of Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position
is due to exchange rate differences and is presented separately in the cash flow statement.
Liabilities arising from financing activities are debt securities, lease liabilities and subordinated loans.

(Reverse) repurchase transactions
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include securities lending and sales and repurchase
transactions with securities. At ING, these types of transactions are recognised in several lines in the
statement of financial position depending on business model assessment and counterparty. Furthermore,
for repurchase agreements, the gross amount of assets must be considered together with the gross amount
of related liabilities, which are presented separately on the statement of financial position since IFRS does
not always allow the netting of these positions in the statement of financial position. Netting is applicable to
repurchase agreements that are governed by an established Global Master Repurchase Agreement (GMRA).
This netting is restricted to transactions involving the same currency and maturity date, and must occur
within the same legal entity. Reference is made to Note 39 'Offsetting financial assets and liabilities'.
Securities purchased under agreements to resell (reverse repos), securities borrowings and similar
agreements are not recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position as the counterparty
continues to be exposed to substantially all risks and rewards of the transferred security. Based on the
business model assessment and counterparty, the consideration paid to purchase securities is recognised as
Loans and advances to customers, Loans and advances to banks, financial assets mandatorily at FVPL or
Trading assets.
Securities sold subject to repurchase agreements (repos), securities lending and similar agreements continue
to be recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position as ING Group continues to be exposed to
substantially all risks and rewards of the transferred financial asset. The counterparty liability is designated
and measured at FVPL if the asset is measured mandatorily at FVPL. Otherwise, the counterparty liability is
included in Deposits from banks, Customer deposits or Trading.
Reference is made to Note 38 'Transfer of financial assets, assets pledged and received as collateral' for
information on transferred assets which were not derecognised.

offers institutional clients, corporate clients, and governments products that are traded on the financial
markets. A significant part of the derivatives in the trading portfolio is related to servicing corporate clients in
their risk management to hedge, for example, currency or interest rate exposures. In addition, ING provides
its customers access to equity and debt markets for issuing their own equity or debt securities (securities
underwriting).

\u2018Financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss\u2019 is partly economically hedged by credit
derivatives. The hedges do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting and the loans and debt securities are
recorded at fair value to avoid an accounting mismatch. The maximum credit exposure of the loans and
receivables and debt securities included in \u2018Financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss\u2019
approximates its carrying value and amounts to EUR 5,740 million (2023: EUR 5,775 million). In 2024, the
change in fair value of these loans and debt securities amounts EUR 5 million (2023: EUR -48 million).\u00a0 \u00a0
ING has mitigated the credit risk exposure on part of the portfolio. The cost at initial recognition of the
financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss that are economically hedged by credit
derivatives is EUR 3,797 million (31 December 2023: EUR 3,181 million) and the cumulative change in fair
value attributable to changes in credit risk is EUR 173 million (31 December 2023: EUR 150 million).
The notional value of the related credit derivatives is EUR 3,807\u00a0million (2023: EUR 3,679\u00a0million). The
cumulative change in fair value of the credit derivatives since the financial assets were first designated,
amounts to EUR -214\u00a0million (2023: EUR -119\u00a0million) and the change for the current year is EUR -95\u00a0million
(2023: EUR -122\u00a0million).
The changes in fair value attributable to changes in credit risk have been calculated by determining the
changes in credit spread implicit in the fair value of loans and bonds issued by entities with similar credit
characteristics.

revaluations of equity securities are mainly related to a revaluation of the stake in Bank of Beijing of EUR

In 2024, ING sold the remaining NNHB mortgages, amounting to EUR 263 million, to Nationale Nederlanden.
ING agreed in 2012 to transfer a portfolio of NNHB mortgages to NN as part of the required restructuring of
ING Group by the European Commission after having received state support during the global financial crisis
(2008). The majority of these mortgages were not sold immediately but only at the interest reset date of
these mortgages.\u00a0
In 2024, interest rates in the shorter and longer tenors decreased which resulted in changes in unrealised
revaluations of debt securities of EUR -96 million. During 2023 interest rates in the longer tenors decreased
significantly resulting in unrealised revaluations of EUR 657 million.

\u2022 Undiscounted future coupon interest on financial liabilities payable is included in a separate line and in
the relevant maturity bucket.
\u2022 Non-financial liabilities are included based on a breakdown of the amounts per statement of financial
position, per expected maturity.
\u2022 Loans and other credit-related commitments are classified on the basis of the earliest date they can be
drawn down.
ING Group\u2019s expected cash flows on some financial liabilities vary significantly from contractual cash flows.
Principal differences are in demand deposits from customers that are expected to remain stable or increase
and in unrecognised loan commitments that are not all expected to be drawn down immediately. Reference
is made to the liquidity risk paragraph in \u2018Risk Management \u2013 Funding and liquidity risk\u2019 for a description on
how liquidity risk is managed.

39\u00a0 Offsetting financial assets and liabilities
The following tables include information about rights to offset and the related arrangements. The amounts
included consist of all recognised financial instruments that are presented net in the statement of financial
position under the IFRS netting criteria (legal right to offset and intention to settle net or to realise the asset
and settle the liability simultaneously) and amounts presented gross in the statement of financial position
but subject to enforceable master netting arrangements or similar arrangements.
At ING Group, amounts that are offset mainly relate to derivatives transactions, sale and repurchase
agreements, securities lending agreements and cash pooling arrangements. A significant portion of
offsetting is applied to OTC derivatives which are cleared through central clearing parties.
Related amounts not offset in the statement of financial position include transactions where:
\u2022 The counterparty has an offsetting exposure and a master netting or similar arrangement is in place with
a right to offset only in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy, or the offsetting criteria are
otherwise not satisfied; and
\u2022 In the case of derivatives and securities lending or sale and repurchase agreements, cash and non-cash
collateral has been received or pledged to cover net exposure in the event of a default or other
predetermined events. The effect of Over-collateralization is excluded.
The net amounts resulting after offsetting are not intended to represent ING\u2019s actual exposure to
counterparty risk, as risk management employs a number of credit risk mitigation strategies in addition to
netting and collateral arrangements. Reference is made to the Risk Management Credit risk\u2019 section \u2018Credit
risk mitigation'.

Guarantees relate both to credit and non-credit substitute guarantees. Credit substitute guarantees are
guarantees given by ING Group in respect of credit granted to customers by a third party. Many of them are
expected to expire without being drawn on and therefore do not necessarily represent future cash outflows.
Irrevocable letters of credit mainly secure payments to third parties for a customer\u2019s foreign and domestic
trade transactions in order to finance a shipment of goods. ING Group\u2019s credit risk in these transactions is
limited since these transactions are collateralised by the commodity shipped and are of a short duration.
Irrevocable facilities mainly constitute unused portions of irrevocable credit facilities granted to corporate
clients. Many of these facilities are for a fixed duration and bear interest at a floating rate. ING Group\u2019s credit
risk and interest rate risk in these transactions is limited. The unused portion of irrevocable credit facilities is
partly secured by customers\u2019 assets or counter-guarantees by the central governments and other public
sector entities under the regulatory requirements. Irrevocable facilities also include commitments made to
purchase securities to be issued by governments and private issuers.
As at 31 December 2024, ING Groep N.V. guarantees various US dollar debentures (that mature on 2026 and
2036) which were issued by a subsidiary of Voya Financial Inc. In accordance with the Shareholder\u2019s
agreement, the net exposure of ING Groep N.V. as at 31 December 2024 and as at 31 December 2023 was
nil, as the outstanding principal amount of the US dollar debentures was fully covered with collateral of EUR
219 million (2023: EUR 205 million) pledged by Voya Financial Inc.
In addition to the items included in contingent liabilities, ING Group has issued certain guarantees as a
participant in collective arrangements of national banking funds and as a participant in required collective
guarantee schemes which apply in different countries.
ING Bank N.V. provided a guarantee to the German Deposit Guarantee Fund (\u2018Einlagensicherungsfonds\u2019 or
ESF) under section 5 (10) of the by-laws of this fund, where ING Bank N.V. indemnifies the Association of
German Banks Berlin against any losses it might incur as result of actions taken with respect to ING
Germany. The ESF is a voluntary collective guarantee scheme for retail savings and deposits in excess of EUR
100,000.
ING uses Irrevocable Payment Commitments (IPCs) for a part of its contributions to the Single Resolution
Fund (SRF). ING Group has EUR 346 million of IPCs outstanding to the SRF as at 31 December 2024 (31
December 2023: EUR 346 million). No IPCs were provided to the SRF during 2024 (2023: EUR 63 million). No
IPCs were called by the SRF in 2024 (2023: nil). Cash collateral provided to the SRF is equal to the outstanding
amount of IPCs.
ING also uses IPCs for a part of its contributions to the Deposit Guarantee Scheme in Germany. Contingent
liabilities for such outstanding IPCs amount to EUR 309 million as at 31 December 2024 (31 December 2023:
EUR 273 million). Of these, EUR 35 million of IPCs were provided to the DGS during 2024 (2023: EUR 36
million). No IPCs were called by the DGS in 2024 (2023: nil). ING posted government bonds as collateral for
the total nominal amount of EUR 336 million as at 31 December 2024 (31 December 2023: EUR 319 million).
Furthermore we refer to Note 41 'Legal proceedings' for any contingent liabilities in respect of legal
proceedings.

(Reverse) repurchase transactions
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include securities lending and sales and repurchase
transactions with securities. At ING, these types of transactions are recognised in several lines in the
statement of financial position depending on business model assessment and counterparty. Furthermore,
for repurchase agreements, the gross amount of assets must be considered together with the gross amount
of related liabilities, which are presented separately on the statement of financial position since IFRS does
not always allow the netting of these positions in the statement of financial position. Netting is applicable to
repurchase agreements that are governed by an established Global Master Repurchase Agreement (GMRA).
This netting is restricted to transactions involving the same currency and maturity date, and must occur
within the same legal entity. Reference is made to Note 39 'Offsetting financial assets and liabilities'.
Securities purchased under agreements to resell (reverse repos), securities borrowings and similar
agreements are not recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position as the counterparty
continues to be exposed to substantially all risks and rewards of the transferred security. Based on the
business model assessment and counterparty, the consideration paid to purchase securities is recognised as
Loans and advances to customers, Loans and advances to banks, financial assets mandatorily at FVPL or
Trading assets.
Securities sold subject to repurchase agreements (repos), securities lending and similar agreements continue
to be recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position as ING Group continues to be exposed to
substantially all risks and rewards of the transferred financial asset. The counterparty liability is designated
and measured at FVPL if the asset is measured mandatorily at FVPL. Otherwise, the counterparty liability is
included in Deposits from banks, Customer deposits or Trading.
Reference is made to Note 38 'Transfer of financial assets, assets pledged and received as collateral' for
information on transferred assets which were not derecognised.

recorded at fair value to avoid an accounting mismatch. The maximum credit exposure of the loans and
receivables and debt securities included in \u2018Financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss\u2019
approximates its carrying value and amounts to EUR 5,740 million (2023: EUR 5,775 million). In 2024, the
change in fair value of these loans and debt securities amounts EUR 5 million (2023: EUR -48 million).\u00a0 \u00a0
ING has mitigated the credit risk exposure on part of the portfolio. The cost at initial recognition of the
financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss that are economically hedged by credit
derivatives is EUR 3,797 million (31 December 2023: EUR 3,181 million) and the cumulative change in fair
value attributable to changes in credit risk is EUR 173 million (31 December 2023: EUR 150 million).
The notional value of the related credit derivatives is EUR 3,807\u00a0million (2023: EUR 3,679\u00a0million). The
cumulative change in fair value of the credit derivatives since the financial assets were first designated,
amounts to EUR -214\u00a0million (2023: EUR -119\u00a0million) and the change for the current year is EUR -95\u00a0million
(2023: EUR -122\u00a0million).
The changes in fair value attributable to changes in credit risk have been calculated by determining the
changes in credit spread implicit in the fair value of loans and bonds issued by entities with similar credit
characteristics.

FVOCI equity securities
Exchange rate differences of EUR 62 million (31 December 2023: EUR -100 million) are mainly related to the
stake in Bank of Beijing following the appreciation of CNY versus EUR. In 2024, changes in unrealised
revaluations of equity securities are mainly related to a revaluation of the stake in Bank of Beijing of EUR
590\u00a0million (31 December 2023: EUR 77\u00a0million) following a change in the share price.
FVOCI debt instruments
In 2024, ING sold the remaining NNHB mortgages, amounting to EUR 263 million, to Nationale Nederlanden.
ING agreed in 2012 to transfer a portfolio of NNHB mortgages to NN as part of the required restructuring of
ING Group by the European Commission after having received state support during the global financial crisis
(2008). The majority of these mortgages were not sold immediately but only at the interest reset date of
these mortgages.\u00a0
In 2024, interest rates in the shorter and longer tenors decreased which resulted in changes in unrealised
revaluations of debt securities of EUR -96 million. During 2023 interest rates in the longer tenors decreased
significantly resulting in unrealised revaluations of EUR 657 million.

As at 31\u00a0December 2024, the change in the fair value of financial liabilities designated at fair value through
profit or loss attributable to changes in credit risk is EUR 17 million on a cumulative basis (2023: EUR\u00a0-34
million). This change has been determined as the amount of change in fair value of the financial liability that
is not attributable to changes in market conditions that gave rise to market risk (i.e. mainly interest-rate risk
based on yield curves).
The amount that ING Group is contractually required to pay at maturity to the holders of financial liabilities
designated at fair value through profit or loss excluding repurchase agreements (part of funds entrusted) is
EUR 11,376 million (2023: EUR\u00a09,957 million).
Funds entrusted include mainly repurchase agreements. For more information on repurchase transactions,

In general, the fair value movements are influenced by changes in the market conditions, such as stock
prices, credit spreads, interest rates and currency exchange rates.
Net trading income relates to trading assets and trading liabilities, which include assets and liabilities that
are classified under IFRS as Trading but are closely related to servicing the needs of the clients of ING. ING
offers products that are traded on the financial markets to institutional clients, corporate clients, and
governments. ING\u2019s trading books are managed based on internal limits and comprise a mix of products with
results which could be offset. A significant part of the derivatives in the trading portfolio are related to
servicing corporate clients in their risk management to hedge for example currency or interest rate
exposures. From a risk perspective, the gross amount of trading assets must be considered together with the
gross amount of trading liabilities, which are presented separately on the statement of financial position.
However, IFRS does not always allow the netting of these positions in the statement of financial position.
Reference is made to Note 4 'Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' and Note 14 'Financial
liabilities at fair value through profit or loss' for information on trading assets and trading liabilities
respectively.\u00a0
Securities trading results include the results of market making in instruments such as government securities,
equity securities, corporate debt securities, money-market instruments. Derivatives trading results include
the results of derivatives such as interest rate swaps, options, futures, and forward contracts. Trading gains
and losses relating to trading securities still held as at 31\u00a0December 2024 amount to EUR 20 million (2023:
EUR 160 million; 2022: EUR\u00a0-157 million). The majority of the risks involved in security and currency trading
are economically hedged with derivatives. The securities trading results are partly offset by results on these
derivatives. The result of these derivatives is included in Derivatives trading results.
Other trading results include the results of trading loans and funds entrusted.
Foreign-exchange transactions results include gains and losses from spot and forward contracts, options,
futures, and translated foreign currency assets and liabilities. The result on currency trading is included in
foreign exchange transactions results.
\u2018Valuation results and net trading income\u2019 include the fair value movements on derivatives (used for both
hedge accounting and economically hedging exposures) as well as the changes in the fair value of assets
and liabilities included in hedging relationships as hedged items. In 2024, fluctuations in interest rate had a
significant impact on the fair value changes of other non-trading derivatives, as well as the fair value
changes of both the derivatives and the hedged items designated in fair value hedges. Reference is made to
Note 35 'Derivatives and hedge accounting' for information on derivatives used for hedge accounting.
Furthermore, derivatives trading results are also impacted by fair value movements arising from changes in
credit spreads (CVA and DVA), bid offer spreads, model risk and incremental cost of funding on derivatives
(FVA and CollVA). Refer to Note 34 'Fair value of assets and liabilities' for information on these valuation
adjustments.
34\u00a0 Fair value of assets and liabilities
a) Valuation methods
The estimated fair values represent the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It is a market-
based measurement, which is based on assumptions that market participants would use and takes into
account the characteristics of the asset or liability that market participants would take into account when
pricing the asset or liability.
Fair values of financial assets and liabilities are based on quoted prices in active market where available.
When such quoted prices are not available, the fair value is determined by using valuation techniques.
b) Valuation control framework
The valuation control framework covers the product approval process (PARP), pricing, market data
assessment and independent price verification (IPV), valuation adjustments, model use, fair value hierarchy
and day one profit or loss. Valuation processes are governed by various governance bodies, including Local
Parameter Committees, the Global Valuation and Impairment Committee, the Market Data Committee and
the Valuation Model Committee. All relevant committees meet on a regular basis (monthly/quarterly), where
the agenda covers the aforementioned valuation controls.
The Global Valuation and Impairment Committee is responsible for the oversight and the approval of the
outcome of impairments (other than loan loss provisions) and valuation processes. It oversees the quality
and coherence of valuation methodologies and performance. The Valuation Model Committee is responsible
for the approval of all valuation models used for the Fair valuation (IFRS) and Prudent Valuation (CRR) of
positions measured at fair value. The Local Parameter Committee discusses the valuation results and
monitors the performance of the valuation activities carried out on local or regional level. The Global
Financial Markets Parameter Committee reviews the consolidated valuation outcome and resulting P&L for
Financial Market products, targeting a globally consistent treatment across Financial Markets. The Market
Data Committee is responsible for the approval of the market data used in valuation.\u00a0
c) Valuation adjustments
Valuation adjustments are an integral part of the fair value. They are the adjustments to the output from a
valuation technique in order to appropriately determine a fair value in accordance with IFRS13. ING considers
various fair value adjustments including Bid-Offer adjustments, Model Risk adjustments, Bilateral Valuation
Adjustments (BVA, consisting of Credit Valuation Adjustments or CVA, and Debit valuation Adjustments or
DVA), Collateral Valuation Adjustment (CollVA) and Funding Valuation Adjustment (FVA).
For financial instruments where the fair value at initial recognition is based on one or more significant
unobservable inputs, a difference between the transaction price and the fair value resulting from the internal
valuation process can occur. Such difference is referred to as Day One Profit or Day One Loss (hereafter:
DOP). ING defers material DOP of instruments with significant unobservable valuation inputs, which are the
financial instruments classified as Level 3 and financial instruments with material unobservable inputs into
CVA which are not necessarily classified as Level 3. The DOP is amortised over the life of the instrument, or
until the significant unobservable inputs become observable, or until the significant unobservable inputs
become non-significant. Both the impact on the profit and loss in 2024 and the DOP reserve is disclosed in
the below table.
Deferred Day One Profit or Loss Reserve
The table below summarises the movement in the aggregate DOP not recognised when financial
instruments were initially recognised, because of the use of valuation techniques for which not all the inputs
were market observable data.

Own Credit Adjustment
Own issued debt and structured notes that are designated at fair value through profit or loss are adjusted for
ING\u2019s own credit risk by means of DVA.
Bid-Offer Adjustment
For positions priced based upon mid-market input parameters, Bid-Offer adjustments are required in order to
reflect the valuation of that position based on bid price or offer price. In practice this adjustment accounts for
the difference in valuation from \u2018mid to bid\u2019 and \u2018mid to offer\u2019 for long and short exposures respectively. In
principle, assets are valued at the bid prices and liabilities are valued at the offer price. For certain assets or
liabilities, where a market-quoted price is not available, the price used is the fair value that is most
representative within the bid-offer spread.
Model Risk Adjustment
Financial instruments that are valued using a valuation model can be subject to model risk. Model risk is the
risk of possible financial loss resulting from a pricing model or model-based parameter deficiencies and/or
uncertainties.
Bilateral Valuation Adjustments (Credit and Debit Valuation Adjustments)\u00a0
Bilateral Valuation Adjustment is the valuation adjustment reflecting the counterparty credit risk of
derivative contracts. It has a bilateral nature, where both the counterparty\u2019s credit risk (i.e. Credit Valuation
Adjustment or CVA) and ING\u2019s own credit risk (Debit Valuation Adjustment or DVA) are taken into account:
\u2022 CVA is the fair value adjustment applicable to derivative instruments to account for the possibility that
the counterparty defaults (i.e. it is the market value of the counterparty\u2019s credit risk).
\u2022 DVA is the fair value adjustment applicable to derivative instruments to account for the possibility that
ING defaults (i.e. it is the market value of ING\u2019s credit risk).
The calculation of CVA and DVA on derivatives is based on their expected exposures, and the counterparties\u2019
and ING\u2019s risk of default, taking into account the collateral agreements as well as netting agreements. The
counterparties\u2019 risk of default is measured by probability of default and expected loss given default, which is
based on market information including credit default swap (CDS) spreads. Where counterparty CDS spreads
are not available, relevant proxy spreads are used. Additionally, wrong-way risk (which occurs when the
probability of default by the counterparty increases or decreases when ING\u2019s exposure to the counterparty
increases (decreases)) and right-way risk (which occurs when the probability of default by the counterparty
increases (decreases) when ING\u2019s exposure to the counterparty decreases (increases)) are included in the
adjustment.
Collateral Valuation Adjustment (CollVA)
Collateral Valuation Adjustment is a fair valuation adjustment applied on derivative instruments to capture
specific features of CSA (Credit Support Annex) with a counterparty that the regular OIS discounting
framework does not capture. Non-standard CSA features may include deviations in relation to the currencies
in which ING posts or receives collateral, deviations in the remuneration rate on collateral which may pay
lower or higher rate than the overnight rate or even no interest at all; other deviations can be posting
securities rather than cash as collateral.
Funding Valuation Adjustment (FVA)
Funding Valuation Adjustment (FVA) is a fair valuation adjustment applied on derivative instruments to
address the asymmetry in funding costs or funding benefits between collateralised and uncollateralised
derivative portfolios. This adjustment is based on the expected exposure profiles of the uncollateralised or
partially collateralised OTC derivatives and market-based funding spreads.
Other Valuation Adjustments
This pertains to other valuation adjustments that are immaterial to ING. Most of the balance consists of the
Market Price Uncertainty (MPU) adjustment in fair value, which accounts for the price uncertainty risk
inherent in the valuation inputs to fair value.
d) Fair value hierarchy
ING Group has categorised its financial instruments that are either measured in the statement of financial
position at fair value or of which the fair value is disclosed, into a three level hierarchy based on the
observability of the valuation inputs. Highest priority is retained to unadjusted quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to valuation techniques supported by
unobservable inputs.
Transfers into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels are made on a quarterly basis at the end of the
reporting period.
Level 1 \u2013 (Unadjusted) quoted prices in active markets
This category includes financial instruments whose fair value is determined directly by reference to
(unadjusted) quoted prices in an active market. A financial instrument is regarded as quoted in an active
market if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer markets, brokered
markets, or principal to principal markets. Those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market
transactions with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Transfers out of Level 1 into Level 2 or Level 3 occur when ING Group establishes that markets are no longer
active and therefore (unadjusted) quoted prices no longer provide reliable pricing information.
Level 2 \u2013 Valuation technique supported by observable inputs
This category includes financial instruments whose fair value is based on market observable inputs, either
directly or indirectly, other than quoted prices included within Level 1. The fair value for financial instruments
in this category can be determined by reference to quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets,
quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted
prices that are observable or market-corroborated inputs. ING analyses how the prices are derived and
determines whether the prices are liquid tradable prices or model-based consensus prices taking various
data as inputs.
For financial instruments that do not have a reference price available, fair value is determined using a
valuation technique (e.g., a model), where inputs in the model are taken from an active market or are
observable, such as interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, implied
volatilities, and credit spreads.
Instruments where inputs are unobservable are classified in this category, provided that the impact of those
unobservable inputs on the overall valuation is insignificant. The notion of significant is particularly relevant
for the distinction between Level 2 and Level 3 assets and liabilities, as the significance assessment of the
valuation input on the entire fair value measurement will determine whether the instrument should be
classified as Level 2 or Level 3. Expert judgement is required on the significance assessment approach.
Level 3 \u2013 Valuation technique supported by unobservable inputs
This category includes financial instruments whose fair value is determined using a valuation technique for
which a significant part of the overall valuation is driven by unobservable valuation inputs. Where valuation
inputs are unobservable, the Group must use the best information available to value the instruments. This
may require internally derived inputs taking into account market participants' assumptions that are
reasonably available, including assumptions on the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to
measure fair value and the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Unobservable inputs may
include, among others, volatility, correlation, spreads to discount rates, default rates, recovery rates,
prepayment rates, and certain credit spreads.

The following methods and assumptions were used by ING Group to estimate the fair value of the financial
instruments:
Equity securities
Instrument description: Equity securities include stocks and shares, corporate investments and private
equity investments.
Valuation: If available, the fair values of publicly traded equity securities and private equity securities are
based on quoted market prices. In the absence of active markets, fair values are estimated by analysing the
investee\u2019s financial position, result, risk profile, prospect, price, earnings comparisons and revenue multiples.
Additionally, reference is made to valuations of peer entities where quoted prices in active markets are
available. For equity securities, best market practice will be applied using the most relevant valuation
method. All non-listed equity investments, including investments in private equity funds, are subject to a
standard review framework which ensures that valuations reflect the fair values.
Fair value hierarchy: The majority of equity securities are publicly traded, and quoted prices are readily and
regularly available. Hence, these securities are classified as Level 1.\u00a0 Equity securities which are not traded in
active markets mainly include corporate investments, fund investments and other equity securities and are
classified as Level 3.
Debt securities
Instrument description: Debt securities include government bonds, financial institutions bonds and Asset-
backed securities (ABS).
Valuation: Where available, fair values for debt securities are generally based on quoted market prices.
Quoted market prices are obtained from an exchange market, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service,
or regulatory service. The quoted prices from non-exchange sources are reviewed on their tradability of
market prices. If quoted prices in an active market are not available, fair value is based on an analysis of
available market inputs, which include consensus prices obtained from one or more pricing services.
Furthermore, fair values are determined by valuation techniques discounting expected future cash flows
using market interest rate curves, referenced credit spreads, maturity of the investment, and estimated
prepayment rates where applicable.
Fair value hierarchy: Government bonds and financial institution bonds are generally traded in active
markets. Where quoted prices are readily and regularly available, they are classified as Level 1. The
remaining positions are classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the trading activity and observability of
prices. Asset backed securities for which no active market is available and a wide discrepancy in quoted
prices exists, are classified as Level 3.
Derivatives
Instrument description: Derivative contracts can either be exchange-traded or over the counter (OTC).
Derivatives include interest rate derivatives, FX derivatives, credit derivatives, equity derivatives and
commodity derivatives.
Valuation: The fair value of exchange-traded derivatives is determined using quoted market prices in an
active market and are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. For instruments that are not actively
traded, fair values are estimated based on valuation techniques. OTC derivatives and derivatives trading in
an inactive market are valued using valuation techniques. The valuation techniques and inputs depend on
the type of derivatives and the nature of the underlying instruments. The principal techniques used to value
these instruments are based on, among others, discounted cash flows, option pricing models and Monte
Carlo simulations. These valuation models calculate the present value of expected future cash flows, based
on \u2018no-arbitrage\u2019 principles. The models are commonly used in the financial industry and inputs to the
validation models are determined from observable market data where possible. Certain inputs may not be
observable in the market, but can be determined from observable prices via valuation model calibration
procedures. These inputs include prices available from exchanges, dealers, brokers or providers of pricing,
yield curves, credit spreads, default rates, recovery rates, dividend rates, volatility of underlying interest
rates, equity prices, and foreign currency exchange rates and reference is made to quoted prices, recently
executed trades, independent market quotes and consensus data, where available. For uncollateralised OTC
derivatives, ING applies Credit Valuation Adjustment to correctly reflect the counterparty credit risk in the
valuation and Debit Valuation Adjustments to reflect the credit risk of ING for its counterparty. In addition, for
these derivatives ING applies Funding Valuation Adjustment. See sections CVA/DVA and FVA in section c)
Valuation Adjustments for more details regarding the calculation.
Fair value hierarchy: The majority of the derivatives are priced using observable inputs and are classified as
Level 2. Derivatives for which the input cannot be implied from observable market data are classified as Level 3.
Loans and receivables
Instrument description: Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable
payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables carried at fair value include trading
loans, being securities lending and similar agreement comparable to collateralised lending, syndicated loans,
loans expected to be sold and receivables with regards to reverse repurchase transactions.
Valuation: The fair value of loans and receivables is generally estimated by discounting expected future cash
flows using a discount rate that reflects credit risk, liquidity, and other current market conditions. The fair
value of mortgage loans is estimated by taking into account prepayment behaviour.
Fair value hierarchy: Loans and receivables are predominantly classified as Level 2. Loans and receivables
for which current market information about similar assets to use as observable, corroborated data for all
significant inputs into a valuation model is not available, are classified as Level 3.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss
Instrument description: Financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss include debt securities and
debt instruments, primarily comprised of structured notes, which are held at fair value under the fair value
option. Besides that, they include derivative contracts and repurchase agreements.
Valuation: The fair values of securities in the trading portfolio and other liabilities at fair value through profit
or loss are based on quoted market prices, where available. For those securities not actively traded, fair
values are estimated based on internal discounted cash flow valuation techniques using interest rates and
credit spreads that apply to similar instruments.
Fair value hierarchy: The majority of the derivatives and debt instruments are classified as Level 2.
Derivatives and debt instruments for which the input cannot be derived from observable market data are
classified as Level 3.
e) Transfers between Level 1 and 2
As a consequence of change in observable inputs, ING recorded a EUR 0.8 billion transfer from Level 2 to
Level 1 in debt securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. No significant
transfers from Level 1 to Level 2 were recorded in the reporting period 2024.
f) Level 3: Valuation techniques and inputs used
Financial assets and liabilities in Level 3 include both assets and liabilities for which the fair value was
determined using (i) valuation techniques that incorporate unobservable inputs as well as (ii) quoted prices
which have been adjusted to reflect that the market was not actively trading at or around the balance sheet
date. Unobservable inputs are inputs which are based on ING\u2019s own assumptions about the factors that
market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, developed based on the best information
available in the circumstances. Unobservable inputs may include volatility, correlation, spreads to discount
rates, default rates and recovery rates, prepayment rates, and certain credit spreads. Valuation techniques
that incorporate unobservable inputs are sensitive to the inputs used.
Of the total amount of financial assets classified as Level 3 as at 31\u00a0December 2024 of EUR 11.0 billion
(31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 9.1 billion), an amount of EUR 9.6 billion (87.2%) (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 7.0 billion,
being 76.7%) is based on unadjusted quoted prices in inactive markets. As ING does not generally adjust
quoted prices using its own inputs, there is no significant sensitivity to ING\u2019s own unobservable inputs.
Furthermore, Level 3 financial assets include EUR 0.1 billion (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.3 billion) which relates
to financial assets that are part of structures that are designed to be fully neutral in terms of market risk.
Such structures include various financial assets and liabilities for which the overall sensitivity to market risk is
insignificant. Whereas the fair value of individual components of these structures may be determined using
different techniques and the fair value of each of the components of these structures may be sensitive to
unobservable inputs, the overall sensitivity is by design not significant.
The remaining EUR 1.3 billion (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 1.8 billion) of the fair value classified in Level 3
financial assets is established using valuation techniques that incorporate certain inputs that are
unobservable.
Of the total amount of financial liabilities classified as Level 3 as at 31\u00a0December 2024 of EUR 0.8 billion
(31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.7 billion), an amount of EUR 0.6 billion (75.7%) (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.4
billion, being 50.0%) is based on unadjusted quoted prices in inactive markets. As ING does not generally
adjust quoted prices using its own inputs, there is no significant sensitivity to ING\u2019s own unobservable inputs.
Furthermore, Level 3 financial liabilities include EUR 0.1 billion (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.3 billion) which
relates to financial liabilities that are part of structures that are designed to be fully neutral in terms of
market risk. As explained above, the fair value of each of the components of these structures may be
sensitive to unobservable inputs, but the overall sensitivity is by design not significant.
The remaining EUR 0.1 billion (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.1 billion) of the fair value classified in Level 3
financial liabilities is established using valuation techniques that incorporates certain inputs that are
unobservable.
The table below provides a summary of the valuation techniques, key unobservable inputs and the lower
and upper range of such unobservable inputs, by type of Level 3 asset/liability. The lower and upper range
mentioned in the overview represent the lowest and highest variance of the respective valuation input as
actually used in the valuation of the different financial instruments. Amounts and percentages stated are
unweighted. The range can vary from period to period subject to market movements and change in Level\u00a03
position. Lower and upper bounds reflect the variability of Level 3 positions and their underlying valuation
inputs in the portfolio, but do not adequately reflect their level of valuation uncertainty. For valuation
uncertainty assessment, reference is made to section Sensitivity analysis of unobservable inputs (Level 3).

1 The abbreviation n.a. stands for not applicable or not available.
Price
For securities where market prices are not available, fair value is measured by comparison with observable
pricing data from similar instruments. Prices of 0% are distressed to the point that no recovery is expected,
while prices significantly in excess of 100% or par are expected to pay a yield above current market rates.
Credit spreads
Credit spread is the premium above a benchmark interest rate required by the market participant to accept
a lower credit quality. Higher credit spreads indicate lower credit quality and a lower value of an asset.
Volatility
Volatility is a measure for variation of the price of a financial instrument or other valuation input over time.
Volatility is one of the key inputs in option pricing models. Typically, the higher the volatility, the higher value
of the option. Volatility varies by the underlying reference (equity, commodity, foreign currency and interest
rates), by strike, and maturity of the option. The minimum level of volatility is 0% and there is no theoretical
maximum.
Correlation
Correlation is a measure of dependence between two underlying references which is relevant for valuing
derivatives and other instruments having more than one underlying reference. High positive correlation
(close to 1) indicates a strong positive (statistical) relationship, where underliers move, everything else equal,
into the same direction. The same holds for a high negative correlation.
Interest rate
An interest rate is the amount of interest due per period, as a proportion of the amount lent, deposited, or
borrowed.
Reset spread
Reset spreads are key inputs to mortgage-linked prepayment swaps valuation. Reset spread is the future
spread at which mortgages will re-price at interest rate reset dates.
Dividend yield
Dividend yield is an important input for equity option pricing models showing how much dividends a
company is expected to pay out each year relative to its share price. Dividend yields are generally expressed
as an annualised percentage of share price.
Payout ratio
Dividend payout ratio is an input that shows the percentage of dividends a company is expected to pay out
each year relative to its net income.
Prepayment rate
Prepayment rate is a key input to mortgage and loan valuation. Prepayment rate is the estimated rate at
which mortgage borrowers will repay their mortgages early, e.g. 5% per year. Prepayment rate and reset
spread are key inputs to mortgage-linked prepayment swaps valuation.

1 Net gains/losses were recorded as \u2018Valuation results and net trading income\u2019 in the statement of profit or loss. The total amounts includes EUR -41 million (2023: EUR 316 million) of unrealised gains and losses recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
2 Revaluation recognised in other comprehensive income is included on the line \u2018Net change in fair value of debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income\u2019.
In 2024 and 2023, transfers into and out of Level 3 of financial assets mandatorily at fair value mainly relate
to (long- term) reverse repurchase transactions for which the valuation being significantly impacted by
unobservable inputs and no longer significantly impacted by unobservable inputs, respectively.
In 2024, the transfer into Level 3 trading assets consisted of cross currency swap trades, which were
transferred to Level 3 as a result of the valuation being significantly impacted by unobservable inputs.
Conversely, the transfer out of Level 3 in trading assets and non-trading derivatives primarily involved
derivative instruments, as their valuations were no longer significantly impacted by unobservable inputs.
In 2024, the transfer out of Level 3 of financial assets at FVOCI relates to HtC&S portfolio transferred to Level
2 resulting from change in methodology.
In 2023, the transfer into Level 3 trading assets is mainly driven by debt securities that are part of a structure
transferred into level 3 due to market illiquidity which decreased observability for an input.

1 Net gains/losses were recorded as \u2018Valuation results and net trading income\u2019 in the statement of profit or loss. The total amount
includes EUR -206 million (2023: EUR 72\u00a0million) of unrealised gains and losses recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
In 2024, the transfers into Level 3 mainly consisted of trading liabilities attributed to cross currency swap
trades transferred into Level 3 as a result of the valuation being significantly impacted by unobservable
inputs. The transfers out of Level 3 for non-trading derivatives are driven by interest rate swap trades, which
were reclassified out of Level 3 as their valuations were no longer influenced by significantly unobservable
inputs.
In 2023, transfers of financial liabilities into and out of Level 3 mainly consisted of structured notes,
measured as designated at fair value through profit or loss. The structured notes were transferred out of
Level 3 as the valuation was no longer impacted by significantly unobservable inputs.
g) Recognition of unrealised gains and losses in Level 3
Amounts recognised in the statement of profit or loss relating to unrealised gains and losses during the year
that relate to Level 3 assets and liabilities are included in the line item \u2018Valuation results and net trading
income\u2019 in the statement of profit or loss.
h) Level 3: Sensitivity analysis of unobservable inputs
Where the fair value of a financial instrument is determined using inputs which are unobservable and which
have a more than insignificant impact on the fair value of the instrument, the actual value of those inputs at
the balance date may be drawn from a range of reasonably possible alternatives. In line with market
practice, the upper and lower bounds of the range of alternative input values reflect a level of valuation
certainty. The actual levels chosen for the unobservable inputs in preparing the financial statements are
consistent with the valuation methodology used for fair valued financial instruments.
In practice, valuation uncertainty is measured and managed per exposure to individual valuation inputs (i.e.
risk factors) at portfolio-level across different product categories. Where the disclosure looks at individual
Level 3 inputs, the actual valuation adjustments may also reflect the benefits of portfolio offsets.
This disclosure does not attempt to indicate or predict future fair value movement. The numbers in isolation
give limited information as in most cases these Level 3 assets and liabilities should be seen in combination
with other instruments (for example as a hedge) that are classified as Level 2.
The valuation uncertainty in the table below is broken down by related risk class rather than by product. The
possible impact of a change of unobservable inputs in the fair value of financial instruments where
unobservable inputs are significant to the valuation is as follows:

1 In accordance with IFRS and for the purpose of this disclosure, the carrying amount of financial instruments with an immediate on demand feature is presented as fair value.
2In 2023, debt securities included a commercial paper issued classified as Level 3. Following a change in valuation technique in 2024, it transferred to Level 2.
The aggregation of the fair values presented above does not represent, and should not be construed as
representing, the underlying value of ING Group. These fair values were calculated for disclosure purposes
only. The carrying amount of financial instruments presented in the above table includes, when applicable,
the fair value hedge adjustment, this explains why (for these cases) the carrying amount approximates fair
value.
Loans and advances to banks
For short-term receivables from banks, carrying amounts represent a reasonable estimate of the fair value.
The fair value of long-term receivables from banks is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows
using a discount rate based on specific available market data, such as interest rates and appropriate
spreads, that reflects current credit risk or quoted bonds.
Loans and advances to customers
For short-term loans, carrying amounts represent a reasonable estimate of the fair value. The fair value of
long-term loans is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a discount rate that reflects
current credit risk, current interest rates, and other current market conditions where applicable. The fair
value of mortgage loans is estimated by taking into account prepayment behaviour. Loans with similar
characteristics are aggregated for calculation purposes.
Securities at amortised cost
Where available, fair values for debt securities are generally based on quoted market prices. Quoted market
prices are obtained from an exchange market, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory
service. The quoted prices from non-exchange sources are reviewed on their tradability of market prices. If
quoted prices in an active market are not available, fair value is based on an analysis of available market
inputs, which include consensus prices obtained from one or more pricing services. Furthermore, fair values
are determined by valuation techniques discounting expected future cash flows using market interest rate
curves, referenced credit spreads, maturity of the investment, and estimated prepayment rates where
applicable.
Deposits from banks
For short-term payables to banks, carrying amounts represent a reasonable estimate of the fair value. The
fair value of long-term payables to banks is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a
discount rate based on available market interest rates and appropriate spreads that reflect ING\u2019s own credit
risk.
Customer deposits
In the current interest rate environment, there is significant embedded value in our on-demand deposits.
However, for the purpose of this disclosure and in accordance with IFRS, the carrying amounts of deposits
with an immediate on demand feature are presented as fair value.
The fair value of deposits with fixed contractual terms has been estimated based on discounting future cash
flows using the interest rates currently applicable to deposits of similar maturities.
Debt securities in issue
The fair value of debt securities in issue is generally based on quoted market prices, or if not available, on
estimated prices by discounting expected future cash flows using a current market interest rate and credit
spreads applicable to the yield, credit quality and maturity.
Subordinated loans
The fair value of publicly traded subordinated loans are based on quoted market prices when available.
Where no quoted market prices are available, fair value of the subordinated loans is estimated using
discounted cash flows based on interest rates and credit spreads that apply to similar instruments.

(Reverse) repurchase transactions
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include securities lending and sales and repurchase
transactions with securities. At ING, these types of transactions are recognised in several lines in the
statement of financial position depending on business model assessment and counterparty. Furthermore,
for repurchase agreements, the gross amount of assets must be considered together with the gross amount
of related liabilities, which are presented separately on the statement of financial position since IFRS does
not always allow the netting of these positions in the statement of financial position. Netting is applicable to
repurchase agreements that are governed by an established Global Master Repurchase Agreement (GMRA).
This netting is restricted to transactions involving the same currency and maturity date, and must occur
within the same legal entity. Reference is made to Note 39 'Offsetting financial assets and liabilities'.
Securities purchased under agreements to resell (reverse repos), securities borrowings and similar
agreements are not recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position as the counterparty
continues to be exposed to substantially all risks and rewards of the transferred security. Based on the
business model assessment and counterparty, the consideration paid to purchase securities is recognised as
Loans and advances to customers, Loans and advances to banks, financial assets mandatorily at FVPL or
Trading assets.
Securities sold subject to repurchase agreements (repos), securities lending and similar agreements continue
to be recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position as ING Group continues to be exposed to
substantially all risks and rewards of the transferred financial asset. The counterparty liability is designated
and measured at FVPL if the asset is measured mandatorily at FVPL. Otherwise, the counterparty liability is
included in Deposits from banks, Customer deposits or Trading.
Reference is made to Note 38 'Transfer of financial assets, assets pledged and received as collateral' for
information on transferred assets which were not derecognised.

Trading assets include assets that are closely related to servicing the needs of the clients of ING Group. ING
offers institutional clients, corporate clients, and governments products that are traded on the financial
markets. A significant part of the derivatives in the trading portfolio is related to servicing corporate clients in
their risk management to hedge, for example, currency or interest rate exposures. In addition, ING provides
its customers access to equity and debt markets for issuing their own equity or debt securities (securities
underwriting).

Trading assets include assets that are closely related to servicing the needs of the clients of ING Group. ING
offers institutional clients, corporate clients, and governments products that are traded on the financial
markets. A significant part of the derivatives in the trading portfolio is related to servicing corporate clients in
their risk management to hedge, for example, currency or interest rate exposures. In addition, ING provides
its customers access to equity and debt markets for issuing their own equity or debt securities (securities
underwriting).

35\u00a0 Derivatives and hedge accounting
Use of derivatives
ING uses derivatives for economic hedging purposes to manage its asset and liability portfolios and
structural risk positions. The primary objective of ING\u2019s hedging activities is to manage the risks which arise
from structural imbalances in the duration and other profiles of its assets and liabilities. The objective of
economic hedging is to enter into positions with an opposite risk profile to an identified risk exposure to
reduce that exposure. The main risks which are being hedged are interest rate risk and foreign currency
exchange rate risk. These risks are primarily hedged with interest rate swaps, cross currency swaps and
foreign exchange forwards/swaps.
ING uses credit derivatives to manage its economic exposure to credit risk, including total return swaps and
credit default swaps, to sell or buy protection for credit risk exposures in the loan, investment, and trading
portfolios. Hedge accounting is not applied in relation to these credit derivatives.
Hedge accounting
Derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting under IFRS are classified and accounted for in accordance with
the nature of the instrument hedged and the type of IFRS hedge accounting model that is applicable. The
three models applicable under IFRS are: fair value hedge accounting, cash flow hedge accounting, and hedge
accounting of a net investment in a foreign operation. How and to what extent these models are applied are
described under the relevant headings below. The company\u2019s detailed accounting policies for these three
hedge models are set out in paragraph 1.5 \u2018Financial instruments\u2019 of Note 1 \u2018Basis of preparation and
material accounting policy information\u2019.
The benchmark rate reform
Reference is made to note 'Risk management / The impact of the benchmark rate reform' for information on
how ING is managing the transition to alternative benchmark rates and ING\u2019s progress in completing the
transition with respect to derivatives in hedge accounting relationships.
Fair value hedge accounting
ING\u2019s fair value hedges principally consist of interest rate swaps that are used to protect against changes in
the fair value of fixed-rate instruments due to movements in market interest rates. ING\u2019s approach to
managing market risk, including interest rate risk, is discussed in \u2018Risk management \u2013Market risk\u2019. ING\u2019s
exposure to interest rate risk is disclosed in paragraph \u2018Interest rate risk in banking book\u2019.
ING Group designates specific non-contractual risk components of hedged items. This is usually determined
by designating benchmark interest rates such as EURIBOR, SOFR, SONIA or TONAR, between others, because
the fair value of a fixed-rate instrument varies directly in response to changes in its benchmark interest rate.
By using derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates, ING also exposes
itself to credit risk of the derivative counterparty, which is not offset by the hedged item. ING minimises
counterparty credit risk in derivative instruments by clearing most of the derivatives through Central Clearing
Counterparties. In addition, ING only enters into transactions with high-quality counterparties and requires
posting collateral.
ING applies fair value hedge accounting on micro level in which one hedged item is hedged with one or
multiple hedging instruments as well as on macro level whereby a portfolio of items is hedged with multiple
hedging instruments. For these macro hedges of interest rate risk, ING applies the EU 'carve-out'. The EU
'carve-out' for macro hedging enables a group of derivatives (or proportions) to be viewed in combination
and jointly designated as the hedging instrument and removes some of the limitations in fair value hedge
accounting relating to hedging core deposits and under-hedging strategies. In retail operations, exposure on
retail funding (savings and current accounts) and retail lending (mortgages) is initially offset. The remaining
exposure is hedged in a portfolio hedge, using the EU carve-out, in which a portion of the retail lending
portfolio and core deposits are designated as a hedged item for hedge accounting purposes.
For portfolio hedges the fair value is projected based on contractual terms and other variables including
prepayment expectations. These projected fair values of the portfolios form the basis for identifying the
notional amount subject to interest rate risk that is designated under fair value hedge accounting.
Micro fair value hedge accounting is mainly applied on issued debt securities and purchased debt
instruments for hedging interest rate risk.
Before fair value hedge accounting is applied, ING determines whether an economic relationship between
the hedged item and the hedging instrument exists based on an evaluation of the quantitative
characteristics of these items and the hedged risk that is supported by quantitative analysis. ING considers
whether the critical terms of the hedged item and hedging instrument closely align when assessing the
presence of an economic relationship. ING evaluates whether the fair value of the hedged item and the
hedging instrument respond similarly to similar risks. In addition, ING is mainly using regression analysis to
assess whether the hedging instrument is expected to be and has been highly effective in offsetting changes
in the fair value of the hedged item.
For the macro hedge on the loan portfolio, ING follows a dynamic hedging strategy. This means that on a
monthly basis, based on the new portfolio projection, the hedging relationship is renewed. From an
operational point of view, the existing hedging relationship is adjusted based on the new portfolio projection
and additional hedging instruments are added to the hedging relationship.
ING uses the following derivative financial instruments in a fair value hedge accounting relationship:

During 2024, the interest rate movements significantly affected the fair value changes of both the
derivatives and the hedged items designated in fair value hedges. However, no material hedging relationship
was discontinued as a result of the interest rate movements in 2024. Refer to note 22 \u2018Valuation results and
net trading income'.
In addition, the net decrease in hedged items is mainly due to higher volumes in debt securities in issue
designated in hedge accounting. Discontinued hedges mainly relate to the transfer of derivatives from UK-
based clearing houses to EU-based clearing houses related to Brexit in 2020.
The main sources of ineffectiveness are:
\u2022 differences in maturities of the hedged item(s) and hedging instrument(s);
\u2022 different interest rate curves applied to discount the hedged item(s) and hedging instrument(s);
\u2022 differences in timing of cash flows of the hedged item(s) and hedging instrument(s).
Additionally, for portfolio (macro) fair value hedges of ING\u2019s fixed rate mortgage portfolio, ineffectiveness
also arises from the disparity between expected and actual prepayments (prepayment risk).
There were no other sources of significant ineffectiveness in these hedging relationships.
Cash flow hedge accounting
ING applies cash flow hedge accounting on a micro and macro level. ING\u2019s cash flow hedges mainly consist
of interest rate swaps and cross-currency swaps that are used to protect against the exposure to variability
in future cash flows on non-trading assets and liabilities that bear interest at variable rates or are expected
to be refunded or reinvested in the future. The amounts and timing of future cash flows, representing both
principal and interest flows, are projected for each portfolio of financial assets and liabilities, based on
contractual terms and other variables including estimates of prepayments. These projected cash flows form
the basis for identifying the notional amount subject to interest rate risk or foreign currency exchange rate
risk that is designated under cash flow hedge accounting.
ING\u2019s approach to manage market risk, including interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk, is
discussed in \u2018Risk management \u2013 Market risk\u2019. ING determines the amount of the exposures to which it
applies hedge accounting by assessing the potential impact of changes in interest rates and foreign
currency exchange rates on the future cash flows from its floating-rate assets and liabilities. This assessment
is performed using analytical techniques.
As noted above for fair value hedges, by using derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to
changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, ING exposes itself to credit risk of the
derivative counterparty, which is not offset by the hedged items. This exposure is managed similarly to that
for fair value hedges.
Gains and losses on the effective portions of derivatives designated under cash flow hedge accounting are
recognised in Other Comprehensive Income. Interest cash flows on these derivatives are recognised in the
statement of profit or loss in \u2018Net interest income\u2019 consistent with the manner in which the forecasted cash
flows affect the net result. The gains and losses on ineffective portions of such derivatives are recognised
immediately in the statement of profit or loss in \u2018Valuation results and net trading income\u2019.
ING determines an economic relationship between the cash flows of the hedged item and the hedging
instrument based on an evaluation of the quantitative characteristics of these items and the hedged risk
that is supported by quantitative analysis. ING considers whether the critical terms of the hedged item and
hedging instrument closely align when assessing the presence of an economic relationship. ING evaluates
whether the cash flows of the hedged item and the hedging instrument respond similarly to the hedged risk,
such as the benchmark interest rate of foreign currency. In addition, a regression analysis is performed to
assess whether the hedging instrument is expected to be and has been highly effective in offsetting changes
in the fair value of the hedged item.

1The carrying amount is the gross amount, excluding tax adjustments.
2The amounts are reclassified to Net interest income - interest income and/or expense on non-trading derivatives (hedge
accounting).
In 2024 and 2023 there are no amounts reclassified from CFH reserve to profit or loss for cash flows that are
no longer expected to occur.
The increase in the carrying amount of the cash flow hedge reserve is driven by the interest rate
movements. No material hedging relationship was discontinued as a result of the interest rate movements
in 2024.
The main sources of ineffectiveness for cash flow hedges are:
\u2022 differences in timing of cash flows of the hedged item(s) and hedging instrument(s);
\u2022 mismatches in reset frequency between hedged item and hedging instrument.

Hedges of net investments in foreign operations
A foreign currency exposure arises from a net investment in subsidiaries that have a different functional
currency from the presentation currency of ING. The risk arises from the fluctuation in spot exchange rates
between the functional currency of the subsidiaries and ING\u2019s presentation currency, which causes the
amount of the net investment to vary in the consolidated financial statements of ING. This risk may have a
significant impact on ING\u2019s financial statements. ING\u2019s policy is to hedge these exposures only when these
are expected to have a significant impact on the regulatory capital ratios of ING and its subsidiaries.
ING\u2019s net investment hedges principally consist of derivatives (including currency forwards and swaps) and
non-derivative financial instruments such as foreign currency denominated funding. When the hedging
instrument is foreign currency-denominated debt, ING assesses effectiveness by comparing past changes in
the carrying amount of the debt that are attributable to a change in the spot rate with past changes in the
investment in the foreign operation due to movement in the spot rate (the offset method).
Gains and losses on the effective portions of derivatives designated under net investment hedge accounting
are recognised in Other Comprehensive Income. The balance in equity is recognised in the statement of
profit or loss when the related foreign subsidiary is disposed. The gains and losses on ineffective portions are
recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss in 'Valuation results and net trading income'.

\u2018Financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss\u2019 is partly economically hedged by credit
derivatives. The hedges do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting and the loans and debt securities are
recorded at fair value to avoid an accounting mismatch. The maximum credit exposure of the loans and
receivables and debt securities included in \u2018Financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss\u2019
approximates its carrying value and amounts to EUR 5,740 million (2023: EUR 5,775 million). In 2024, the
change in fair value of these loans and debt securities amounts EUR 5 million (2023: EUR -48 million).\u00a0 \u00a0
ING has mitigated the credit risk exposure on part of the portfolio. The cost at initial recognition of the
financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss that are economically hedged by credit
derivatives is EUR 3,797 million (31 December 2023: EUR 3,181 million) and the cumulative change in fair
value attributable to changes in credit risk is EUR 173 million (31 December 2023: EUR 150 million).
The notional value of the related credit derivatives is EUR 3,807\u00a0million (2023: EUR 3,679\u00a0million). The
cumulative change in fair value of the credit derivatives since the financial assets were first designated,
amounts to EUR -214\u00a0million (2023: EUR -119\u00a0million) and the change for the current year is EUR -95\u00a0million
(2023: EUR -122\u00a0million).
The changes in fair value attributable to changes in credit risk have been calculated by determining the
changes in credit spread implicit in the fair value of loans and bonds issued by entities with similar credit
characteristics.

is not attributable to changes in market conditions that gave rise to market risk (i.e. mainly interest-rate risk
based on yield curves).
The amount that ING Group is contractually required to pay at maturity to the holders of financial liabilities

ING considers valuations from third-party experts in determining the fair values of property in own use. The
vast majority of the land and buildings were appraised during 2024. Property in own use purchase costs
amounted to EUR 871\u00a0million (2023 : EUR\u00a0753\u00a0million). Cost or the purchase price less accumulated
depreciation and impairments would have been EUR 476 million (2023: EUR 350 million) had property in own
use been valued at cost instead of at fair value.
The reported impairment losses of EUR -23 million (2023: EUR -41 million) mainly result from the closure of
branches and unfavourable office market developments.

TMBThanachart Bank Public Company Limited
ING Group has a 23% investment in TMBThanachart Bank Public Company Limited (hereafter: TTB), a bank
listed on the stock exchange of Thailand. TTB is providing products and services to wholesale, small and
medium enterprise (SME), and retail customers. TTB is accounted for as an investment in associate based on
the size of ING's shareholding and representation on the Board. TTB is part of the Corporate Line segment.
Other investments in associates and joint ventures
Included in Other investments in associates and joint ventures are mainly financial services and (non-)
financial technology funds or vehicles operating predominantly in Europe, and are individually not significant
to ING Group.
Significant influence for associates in which the interest held is below 20%, is based on the combination of
ING Group\u2019s financial interest and other arrangements, such as participation in the Board of Directors.
The associates and joint ventures of ING are subject to legal and regulatory restrictions regarding the
amount of dividends they can pay to ING. These restrictions are, for example, dependent on the laws in the
country of incorporation for declaring dividends or as a result of minimum capital requirements that are
imposed by industry regulators in the countries in which the associates and joint ventures operate.
In addition, the associates and joint ventures also consider other factors in determining the appropriate
levels of equity needed. These factors and limitations include, but are not limited to, the rating agency and
regulatory views, which can change over time.

Share of results from associates and joint ventures of EUR 205 million (2023: EUR 149 million) as included in
the table above is mainly attributable to our share in the results of TTB of EUR 123\u00a0million (2023: EUR 107
million ) and our share in the result of an associate in Belgium of EUR 77 million following a one-off profit.
The total impairment losses of EUR 35 million relate to associates that are not individually significant.
Impairments and reversal thereof on the investment in TTB
Accumulated impairments on the investment in TTB of EUR 395\u00a0million (2023: EUR 395\u00a0million) were
recognised in previous years. There is no impairment trigger observed as per 31 December 2024. A Value in
Use ('VIU') was estimated following the prolonged increase of the quoted TTB share price over the original
cost price of the investment and the sustained improved broker consensus outlook. As VIU did not exceed
the carrying amount of the investment in TTB no reversal of impairment, was recognised.
Methodology
The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the fair value less costs of disposal and VIU. Fair
value less costs of disposal is based on observable share price. The VIU calculation uses discounted cash flow
projections based on management\u2019s best estimates. VIU is derived using a Dividend Discount Model (DDM)
where distributable equity, i.e. future earnings available to ordinary shareholders, is used as a proxy for
future cash flows. The valuation looks at expected cash flows into perpetuity resulting in two main
components to the VIU calculation:
\u2022 The estimation of future earnings over a 5-year forecast period; and
\u2022 the terminal value being the extrapolation of earnings into perpetuity applying a long-term growth rate.
The earnings that are used for extrapolation represent the stable long-term financial results and position
of TTB, i.e. a steady state. The terminal value comprises the majority of the total VIU.
Key assumptions used in the VIU calculation as at 31 December 2024
The VIU is determined using a valuation model which is subject to multiple management assumptions. The
key assumptions, i.e. those to which the overall result is most sensitive to, are the following:
\u2022 Expected future earnings of TTB: Short- to medium-term expectations are based on forecasts derived
from broker consensus. Longer-term and steady-state expectations into perpetuity are derived using
reasonable and supportable assumptions capturing a combination of TTB specific and market data points;
A capital maintenance charge is applied, which is management\u2019s forecast of the earnings that need to be
withheld in order for TTB to meet target regulatory requirements over the forecast period;
\u2022 Discount rate (cost of equity): 10.96%, based on the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) calculated for TTB
using current market data; and
\u2022 Terminal growth rate: 2.74% consistent with current long term government bond yield in Thailand as a
proxy for a risk-free rate.
The model was evaluated for reasonably possible changes to key assumptions in the model. This reflects the
sensitivity of the VIU to each key assumption on its own and it is possible that more than one favourable
and/or unfavourable change may occur at the same time. The selected rates of reasonably possible changes
to key assumptions are based on external analysts\u2019 forecasts and other relevant external data sources,
which can change period to period. The sensitivity of the VIU to each key assumption is as follows:
\u2022 A favourable change of 10% in the cash flows would result in an increase in VIU of EUR 57 million, while
an unfavourable change of -10% would result in a decrease in VIU of EUR -59 million;\u00a0
\u2022 A favourable change of -1% in the discount rate would result in an increase in VIU of EUR 95 million, while
an unfavourable change of 1% would result in a decrease in VIU of EUR -75 million;
\u2022 A favourable change of 1% in the terminal growth rate would result in an increase in VIU of EUR 68
million, while an unfavourable change of -1% would result in a decrease in VIU of EUR -53 million;", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfInvestmentsAccountedForUsingEquityMethodExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:549300NYKK9MWM7GGW15", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "f-710": { "value": "

TMBThanachart Bank Public Company Limited
ING Group has a 23% investment in TMBThanachart Bank Public Company Limited (hereafter: TTB), a bank
listed on the stock exchange of Thailand. TTB is providing products and services to wholesale, small and
medium enterprise (SME), and retail customers. TTB is accounted for as an investment in associate based on
the size of ING's shareholding and representation on the Board. TTB is part of the Corporate Line segment.
Other investments in associates and joint ventures
Included in Other investments in associates and joint ventures are mainly financial services and (non-)
financial technology funds or vehicles operating predominantly in Europe, and are individually not significant
to ING Group.
Significant influence for associates in which the interest held is below 20%, is based on the combination of
ING Group\u2019s financial interest and other arrangements, such as participation in the Board of Directors.
The associates and joint ventures of ING are subject to legal and regulatory restrictions regarding the
amount of dividends they can pay to ING. These restrictions are, for example, dependent on the laws in the
country of incorporation for declaring dividends or as a result of minimum capital requirements that are
imposed by industry regulators in the countries in which the associates and joint ventures operate.
In addition, the associates and joint ventures also consider other factors in determining the appropriate
levels of equity needed. These factors and limitations include, but are not limited to, the rating agency and
regulatory views, which can change over time.

Impairment testing
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually in the fourth quarter by comparing the recoverable amount of
each goodwill-carrying CGU with its carrying amount. The key assumptions used in the calculation of the
recoverable amounts are included in the table above. Furthermore, ING Group tests goodwill whenever a
triggering event is identified. In 2024, no triggering events were identified.
At the annual impairment test in the fourth quarter, the recoverable amount exceeds the carrying value of
the CGUs as at 31 December 2024 and therefore no impairment is required (31 December 2023: nil).
Methodology
The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the fair value less costs of disposal and Value in Use
(VIU). The VIU calculation is based on a Dividend Discount model using three-year management-approved
plans, updated for expected changes in the macroeconomic environment. When estimating the VIU of a
CGU, local conditions and requirements determine the capital requirements, discount rates, and terminal
growth rates. These local conditions and requirements determine the ability to upstream excess capital and
profits to ING Group. The discount rate calculation includes other inputs such as equity market premium,
country risk premium, and long term inflation which are based on market sources and management\u2019s
judgement. The long-term growth rate is based on the long-term inflation rate obtained from market
sources. The impacts of climate risk are included to the extent that they are observable in discount rates and
assets prices.
Sensitivity of key assumptions
Key assumptions in the goodwill impairment test model are the projected locally available cash flows (based
on local capital requirements and projected profits), discount rates (cost of equity), and long-term growth
rates.
The recoverable amounts of the CGUs are sensitive to the above key assumptions. A decrease in the
available cash flows of 10%, an increase in the discount rate of 1 percent point or a reduction of the future
growth rate to zero are considered reasonably possible changes in key assumptions. If the aforementioned
changes occur to one of the above key assumptions holding the other key assumptions constant, goodwill of
the remaining CGUs will continue to be recoverable.
Software is reviewed for indicators of impairment. Irrespective of whether there is an indication of
impairment, software under development is tested annually for impairment. In 2024, individually immaterial
items were impaired for an amount of EUR 12 million (31 December 2023: EUR 5 million).

ING considers valuations from third-party experts in determining the fair values of property in own use. The
vast majority of the land and buildings were appraised during 2024. Property in own use purchase costs
amounted to EUR 871\u00a0million (2023 : EUR\u00a0753\u00a0million). Cost or the purchase price less accumulated
depreciation and impairments would have been EUR 476 million (2023: EUR 350 million) had property in own
use been valued at cost instead of at fair value.
The reported impairment losses of EUR -23 million (2023: EUR -41 million) mainly result from the closure of

(VIU). The VIU calculation is based on a Dividend Discount model using three-year management-approved
plans, updated for expected changes in the macroeconomic environment. When estimating the VIU of a
CGU, local conditions and requirements determine the capital requirements, discount rates, and terminal
growth rates. These local conditions and requirements determine the ability to upstream excess capital and
profits to ING Group. The discount rate calculation includes other inputs such as equity market premium,
country risk premium, and long term inflation which are based on market sources and management\u2019s
judgement. The long-term growth rate is based on the long-term inflation rate obtained from market
sources. The impacts of climate risk are included to the extent that they are observable in discount rates and
assets prices.
Sensitivity of key assumptions
Key assumptions in the goodwill impairment test model are the projected locally available cash flows (based
on local capital requirements and projected profits), discount rates (cost of equity), and long-term growth
rates.
The recoverable amounts of the CGUs are sensitive to the above key assumptions. A decrease in the
available cash flows of 10%, an increase in the discount rate of 1 percent point or a reduction of the future
growth rate to zero are considered reasonably possible changes in key assumptions. If the aforementioned
changes occur to one of the above key assumptions holding the other key assumptions constant, goodwill of
the remaining CGUs will continue to be recoverable.
Software
Software includes internally developed software amounting to EUR 768 million (2023: EUR 628 million).
Software is reviewed for indicators of impairment. Irrespective of whether there is an indication of
impairment, software under development is tested annually for impairment. In 2024, individually immaterial
items were impaired for an amount of EUR 12 million (31 December 2023: EUR 5 million).

Impairment testing
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually in the fourth quarter by comparing the recoverable amount of
each goodwill-carrying CGU with its carrying amount. The key assumptions used in the calculation of the
recoverable amounts are included in the table above. Furthermore, ING Group tests goodwill whenever a
triggering event is identified. In 2024, no triggering events were identified.
At the annual impairment test in the fourth quarter, the recoverable amount exceeds the carrying value of
the CGUs as at 31 December 2024 and therefore no impairment is required (31 December 2023: nil).
Methodology
The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the fair value less costs of disposal and Value in Use
(VIU). The VIU calculation is based on a Dividend Discount model using three-year management-approved
plans, updated for expected changes in the macroeconomic environment. When estimating the VIU of a
CGU, local conditions and requirements determine the capital requirements, discount rates, and terminal
growth rates. These local conditions and requirements determine the ability to upstream excess capital and
profits to ING Group. The discount rate calculation includes other inputs such as equity market premium,
country risk premium, and long term inflation which are based on market sources and management\u2019s
judgement. The long-term growth rate is based on the long-term inflation rate obtained from market
sources. The impacts of climate risk are included to the extent that they are observable in discount rates and
assets prices.
Sensitivity of key assumptions
Key assumptions in the goodwill impairment test model are the projected locally available cash flows (based
on local capital requirements and projected profits), discount rates (cost of equity), and long-term growth
rates.
The recoverable amounts of the CGUs are sensitive to the above key assumptions. A decrease in the
available cash flows of 10%, an increase in the discount rate of 1 percent point or a reduction of the future
growth rate to zero are considered reasonably possible changes in key assumptions. If the aforementioned
changes occur to one of the above key assumptions holding the other key assumptions constant, goodwill of
the remaining CGUs will continue to be recoverable.

1 Additions to provisions and unused amounts released are presented in Note 26 'Other operating expenses' in the Statement of Profit\u00a0
or Loss.
As at 31\u00a0December 2024, amounts expected to be settled within 12 months in provisions amount to EUR 574
million (2023: EUR 720 million). The amounts included are based on best estimates with regard to amounts
and timing of cash flows required to settle the obligation.
Reorganisation provisions
The additions in 2024 mainly relate to restructuring activities in Belgium, the Netherlands, and at head office.
In 2023, the additions to the reorganisation provisions mainly relate to restructuring activities in Belgium,
Poland, and the Netherlands.
These initiatives are implemented over a period of several years and the estimate of the reorganisation
provisions is inherently uncertain.
Litigation provisions
Reference is made to Note 41 'Legal proceedings' for developments in litigation provisions.
Other provisions
In 2024, the utilisations in the Other provisions mainly relate to the provision for the compensation of Dutch
retail customers for past interest charges that did not sufficiently track market rates. This provision of EUR
180 million was recognized in 2021 and subsequently had been increased by EUR 75 million in 2023.
In 2023, ING Group voluntarily changed its accounting policy for non-financial guarantees that are subject to
contractual indemnification rights from IAS 37 principles to loan commitment accounting under IFRS 9. The
change from IAS 37 to IFRS 9 resulted in derecognition of the existing IAS 37 provision of EUR 109 million as
per 1 January 2023 and recognition of a provision for expected credit losses of EUR 151 million for non-
financial guarantees as per 1 January 2023 (EUR 42 million pre-tax impact on Equity at the beginning of
2023). This change is included in Other changes in the movement table.

Dividend and other distributions
In 2024, a cash dividend of EUR 3,626 million (2023: EUR 2,668 million; 2022: EUR 2,178 million) and in
January 2025 an additional cash distribution of EUR 498 million (2023: EUR 0 million; 2022: EUR 1,171
million) were paid to the shareholders of ING Group. For further information, reference is made to Note 29
'Dividend per ordinary share'.
Share buybacks and other changes
Share buybacks and other changes includes an amount of EUR -5,723 million (2023: EUR -3,217 million;
2022: EUR -1,983 million), which corresponds to the purchase and cancellation of treasury shares purchased
under the share buyback programmes.
Ordinary shares - Restrictions with respect to dividend and repayment of capital
The following equity components cannot be freely distributed: Revaluation reserves, Net defined benefit
asset/liability remeasurement reserve, Currency translation reserve, Share of associates and joint ventures
reserve and Other reserves including the reserve related to the former Stichting Regio Bank and the former
Stichting Vakbondsspaarbank SPN.
ING Groep N.V. is subject to legal restrictions regarding the amount of dividends it can pay to the holders of
its ordinary shares. Pursuant to the Dutch Civil Code, dividends can only be paid up to an amount equal to
the excess of the company\u2019s own funds over the sum of the paid-up capital and reserves required by law.
Moreover, ING Groep N.V.\u2019s ability to pay dividends is dependent on the dividend payment ability of its
subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures. ING Groep N.V. is legally required to create a non-distributable
reserve insofar as profits of its subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are subject to dividend payment
restrictions which apply to those subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures themselves.
Non-distributable reserves, determined in accordance with the financial reporting requirements included in
Part 9 of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code, from ING Group\u2019s subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are as
follows:

In addition to the legal and regulatory restrictions on distributing dividends from subsidiaries, associates and
joint ventures to ING Groep N.V. there are various other considerations and limitations that are taken into
account in determining the appropriate levels of equity in the Group\u2019s subsidiaries, associates and joint
ventures. These considerations and limitations include, but are not restricted to, minimum capital
requirements that are imposed by industry regulators in the countries in which the subsidiaries, associates
and joint ventures operate, or other limitations which may exist in certain countries and may or may not be
temporary in nature. It is not possible to disclose a reliable quantification of these limitations. Without
prejudice to the authority of the Executive Board to allocate profits to reserves and to the fact that the
ordinary shares are the most junior securities issued by ING Groep N.V., no specific dividend payment
restrictions with respect to ordinary shares exist.
Furthermore, ING Groep N.V. is subject to legal restrictions with respect to repayment of capital to holders of
ordinary shares. Pursuant to the Dutch Civil Code, capital may only be repaid if none of ING Groep N.V.\u2019s
creditors opposes such a repayment within two months following the announcement of a resolution to that
effect.
Cumulative preference shares (not issued)
Pursuant to the Articles of Association of ING Groep N.V. the authorised cumulative preference share capital
consists of 4.6 billion cumulative preference shares, of which none have been issued. The par value of these
cumulative preference shares is EUR 0.01. A right to acquire cumulative preference shares has been granted
to Stichting Continu\u00efteit ING (ING Continuity Foundation).
The cumulative preference shares rank before the ordinary shares in entitlement to dividend and to
distributions upon liquidation of ING Groep N.V.
The dividend on the cumulative preference shares will be equal to a percentage, calculated on the amount
compulsorily paid up or yet to be paid up. This percentage shall be equal to the average of the euro short-
term rate (\u20acSTR) as calculated by the European Central Bank during the financial year for which the
distribution is made; this percentage being weighted on the basis of the number of days for which it applies,
and increased by 2.585 percentage points.
If, and to the extent that, the profit available for distribution is not sufficient to pay the dividend referred to
above in full, the shortfall will be made up from the reserves insofar as possible. If, and to the extent that, the
dividend distribution cannot be made from the reserves, the profits earned in subsequent years shall first be
used to make up the shortfall before any distribution may be made on shares of any other category.
ING Groep N.V.\u2019s Articles of Association make provision for the cancellation of cumulative preference shares.
Upon cancellation of cumulative preference shares and upon liquidation of ING Groep N.V., the amount paid
up on the cumulative preference shares will be repaid together with the accrued dividend as well as any
dividend shortfall in preceding years, insofar as this shortfall has not yet been made up. No specific dividend
payment restrictions with respect to the cumulative preference shares exist.

1 Table has been updated to a more aggregated view for presentation purposes and comparatives have been adjusted accordingly. Negative interest on assets and liabilities is no longer presented separately. Furthermore, interest expense on deposits from customers and banks
is now presented on a combined basis within Interest expense on deposits. Refer to footnote 2 and 3.
2 Includes interest income on loans to customers and banks, cash balances as well as negative interest on liabilities. Negative interest on liabilities amounted to EUR 7 million (2023: EUR 19 million; 2022: EUR 887 million).
3Includes interest paid on deposits from customers and banks, and negative interest on assets. Negative interest on assets amounted to EUR 1 million (2023: EUR nil; 2022: EUR 285 million).
In 2022, a one-off adjustment was recorded in interest income on loans regarding the credit moratoria in
Poland (EUR -343 million).
Due to prevalent rates during the comparative years, Negative interest on liabilities includes the ECB funding
rate benefit from the TLTRO III programme of EUR 314 million in 2022, while for 2024 Interest expense on
deposits includes interest paid under the TLTRO III programme of EUR 59 million (2023: EUR 557 million). The
funding under this programme was fully repaid during the first quarter of 2024.
The ECB funding rate benefit in 2022 caused the discontinuation of the fair value hedge accounting
relationship on TLTRO III, impacting net interest income of 2022 for an amount of EUR -483 million.

In general, the fair value movements are influenced by changes in the market conditions, such as stock
prices, credit spreads, interest rates and currency exchange rates.
Net trading income relates to trading assets and trading liabilities, which include assets and liabilities that
are classified under IFRS as Trading but are closely related to servicing the needs of the clients of ING. ING
offers products that are traded on the financial markets to institutional clients, corporate clients, and
governments. ING\u2019s trading books are managed based on internal limits and comprise a mix of products with
results which could be offset. A significant part of the derivatives in the trading portfolio are related to
servicing corporate clients in their risk management to hedge for example currency or interest rate
exposures. From a risk perspective, the gross amount of trading assets must be considered together with the
gross amount of trading liabilities, which are presented separately on the statement of financial position.
However, IFRS does not always allow the netting of these positions in the statement of financial position.
Reference is made to Note 4 'Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' and Note 14 'Financial
liabilities at fair value through profit or loss' for information on trading assets and trading liabilities
respectively.\u00a0
Securities trading results include the results of market making in instruments such as government securities,
equity securities, corporate debt securities, money-market instruments. Derivatives trading results include
the results of derivatives such as interest rate swaps, options, futures, and forward contracts. Trading gains
and losses relating to trading securities still held as at 31\u00a0December 2024 amount to EUR 20 million (2023:
EUR 160 million; 2022: EUR\u00a0-157 million). The majority of the risks involved in security and currency trading
are economically hedged with derivatives. The securities trading results are partly offset by results on these
derivatives. The result of these derivatives is included in Derivatives trading results.
Other trading results include the results of trading loans and funds entrusted.
Foreign-exchange transactions results include gains and losses from spot and forward contracts, options,
futures, and translated foreign currency assets and liabilities. The result on currency trading is included in
foreign exchange transactions results.
\u2018Valuation results and net trading income\u2019 include the fair value movements on derivatives (used for both
hedge accounting and economically hedging exposures) as well as the changes in the fair value of assets
and liabilities included in hedging relationships as hedged items. In 2024, fluctuations in interest rate had a
significant impact on the fair value changes of other non-trading derivatives, as well as the fair value
changes of both the derivatives and the hedged items designated in fair value hedges. Reference is made to
Note 35 'Derivatives and hedge accounting' for information on derivatives used for hedge accounting.
Furthermore, derivatives trading results are also impacted by fair value movements arising from changes in
credit spreads (CVA and DVA), bid offer spreads, model risk and incremental cost of funding on derivatives
(FVA and CollVA). Refer to Note 34 'Fair value of assets and liabilities' for information on these valuation
adjustments.

hyperinflation impact in T\u00fcrkiye related to the indexation of T\u00fcrkiye's statement of financial position and
statement of profit or loss with an offsetting effect in the currency translation reserve . Other net income in
2024 also includes EUR 53 million receivable related to a prior insolvency of a financial institution in the
Netherlands and a result of EUR 21 million on the sale of the remaining NNHB mortgages. Furthermore, it
includes the positive recovery of defaulted receivables of EUR 27 million (2023 EUR 25 million ; 2022 EUR 32
million).
Other net income as per 31 December 2022 includes an amount of EUR -307 million loss recognised to
unwind a macro fair value hedge of deposits, which led to a timing difference with expected fair value.
Furthermore, it includes the proceeds of the agreement with Boursorama after our exit from the retail
banking market in France of EUR 125 million and a gain of EUR 67 million from a legacy entity in Retail
Belgium.

In general, the fair value movements are influenced by changes in the market conditions, such as stock
prices, credit spreads, interest rates and currency exchange rates.
Net trading income relates to trading assets and trading liabilities, which include assets and liabilities that
are classified under IFRS as Trading but are closely related to servicing the needs of the clients of ING. ING
offers products that are traded on the financial markets to institutional clients, corporate clients, and
governments. ING\u2019s trading books are managed based on internal limits and comprise a mix of products with
results which could be offset. A significant part of the derivatives in the trading portfolio are related to
servicing corporate clients in their risk management to hedge for example currency or interest rate
exposures. From a risk perspective, the gross amount of trading assets must be considered together with the
gross amount of trading liabilities, which are presented separately on the statement of financial position.
However, IFRS does not always allow the netting of these positions in the statement of financial position.
Reference is made to Note 4 'Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' and Note 14 'Financial
liabilities at fair value through profit or loss' for information on trading assets and trading liabilities
respectively.\u00a0
Securities trading results include the results of market making in instruments such as government securities,
equity securities, corporate debt securities, money-market instruments. Derivatives trading results include
the results of derivatives such as interest rate swaps, options, futures, and forward contracts. Trading gains
and losses relating to trading securities still held as at 31\u00a0December 2024 amount to EUR 20 million (2023:
EUR 160 million; 2022: EUR\u00a0-157 million). The majority of the risks involved in security and currency trading
are economically hedged with derivatives. The securities trading results are partly offset by results on these
derivatives. The result of these derivatives is included in Derivatives trading results.
Other trading results include the results of trading loans and funds entrusted.
Foreign-exchange transactions results include gains and losses from spot and forward contracts, options,
futures, and translated foreign currency assets and liabilities. The result on currency trading is included in
foreign exchange transactions results.
\u2018Valuation results and net trading income\u2019 include the fair value movements on derivatives (used for both
hedge accounting and economically hedging exposures) as well as the changes in the fair value of assets
and liabilities included in hedging relationships as hedged items. In 2024, fluctuations in interest rate had a
significant impact on the fair value changes of other non-trading derivatives, as well as the fair value
changes of both the derivatives and the hedged items designated in fair value hedges. Reference is made to
Note 35 'Derivatives and hedge accounting' for information on derivatives used for hedge accounting.
Furthermore, derivatives trading results are also impacted by fair value movements arising from changes in
credit spreads (CVA and DVA), bid offer spreads, model risk and incremental cost of funding on derivatives
(FVA and CollVA). Refer to Note 34 'Fair value of assets and liabilities' for information on these valuation
adjustments.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfTradingIncomeExpenseExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:549300NYKK9MWM7GGW15", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "f-740": { "value": "

Share plans
ING grants various types of share awards, namely deferred and upfront shares, which form part of the
variable remuneration offering via the Long-term Sustainable Performance Plan (LSPP). The entitlement to
the LSPP share awards is granted conditionally. If the participant remains in employment for an
uninterrupted period between the grant date and the vesting date, the entitlement becomes unconditional,
with the exception of the upfront shares which are immediately vested upon grant. Upfront and deferred
shares awarded to the Executive Board and Management Board members of ING Group as well as identified
staff, have a retention obligation that must be adhered to upon vesting, typically a minimum retention of 12
months applies for staff and up to 60 months for Board. ING has the authority to apply a holdback to
awarded but unvested shares and a clawback to vested shares.
The share awards granted in 2024 relate to the performance year 2023. In 2024, 59,490 share awards (2023:
52,693; 2022: 55,651) were granted to the members of the Executive Board of ING Groep N.V., and 121,504
share awards (2023: 172,103; 2022: 137,506) were granted to the Management Board Banking. To senior
management and other employees 4,248,400 share awards (2023: 3,244,951; 2022: 2,913,926) were
granted.
In 2024 and 2023, shares are bought back from the market to fund share plans. In 2022 the obligations with
regard to share plans were funded by newly issued shares at the discretion of ING Group.\u00a0

As at 31\u00a0December 2024, there were 4,855,542 share awards outstanding (2023: 3,897,800; 2022:
3,699,555). These all are related to equity-settled share-based payment arrangements, as cash-settled
share-based payment arrangements were terminated in 2023.
The fair value of share awards granted is recognised as an expense under Staff expenses and is allocated
over the vesting period of the share awards. The fair value calculation takes into account the current share
prices, expected volatilities and the dividend yield of ING shares.
As at 31\u00a0December 2024, total unrecognised compensation costs related to share awards amount to EUR 25
million (2023: EUR 15 million; 2022: EUR 13 million). These costs are expected to be recognised over a
weighted average period of 2.0 years (2023: 2.0 years; 2022 : 1.9 years).
32\u00a0 Pensions and other post-employment benefits\u00a0
Most group companies sponsor defined contribution pension plans. The assets of all ING Group\u2019s defined
contribution plans are held in independently administered funds. Contributions, including the defined
contribution plan in the Netherlands, are principally determined as a percentage of remuneration. These
plans do not give rise to provisions in the statement of financial position, other than relating to short-term
timing differences included in other assets and in other liabilities.
ING Group maintains defined benefit retirement plans in some countries. These plans provide benefits that
are related to the remuneration and service of employees upon retirement. The benefits in some of these
plans are subject to various forms of indexation. The indexation is, in some cases, at the discretion of
management; in other cases it is dependent upon the sufficiency of plan assets.
Annual contributions are paid to the funds at a rate necessary to adequately finance the accrued liabilities of
the plans calculated in accordance with local legal requirements. Plans in all countries are designed to
comply with applicable local regulations governing investments and funding levels.
ING Group provides other post-employment benefits to certain former employees. These post-employment
benefits are primarily discounts on ING products.
Defined contribution plans
ING, as part of the labour agreements with its employees, sponsors a number of defined contribution plans.
ING\u2019s obligation is limited to contributions which are agreed in advance and also includes employee
contributions. The most significant plans are in the Netherlands and Belgium. The employer's contribution is
recognised as an expense which amounted in 2024 to EUR 423 million (2023: EUR 391 million).

As at 31\u00a0December 2024, the defined benefit plans did not hold any direct investments in ING Groep N.V.
(2023: nil). During 2024 and 2023, there were no purchases or sales of assets between ING and the pension
funds.
ING does not manage the pension funds and thus receives no compensation for fund management. The
pension funds have not engaged ING in any swap or derivative transactions to manage the risk of the
pension funds.
No plan assets are expected to be returned to ING Group during 2025.

In 2024, the EUR -118\u00a0million (2023: EUR -8\u00a0million) of remeasurements of plan assets, that is recognised as a
loss in other comprehensive income, is driven by yield changes on investments.
The EUR 94\u00a0million (2023: EUR -127\u00a0million) of actuarial gains arising from changes in financial assumptions
in the calculation of the defined benefit obligation is mainly due to an increase in discount rates.
The accumulated amount of remeasurements recognised directly in Other comprehensive income is EUR
-447\u00a0million (EUR -333\u00a0million after tax) as at 31\u00a0December 2024 (2023: EUR -397\u00a0million; EUR -317\u00a0million

Determination of the net defined benefit asset/liability
The net defined benefit asset/liability is reviewed and adjusted annually. The assumptions used in the
determination of the net defined benefit asset/liability and the Other post-employment benefits include
discount rates, mortality rates, expected rates of salary increases (excluding promotion increases), and
indexation. The rates used for salary developments, interest discount factors, and other adjustments reflect
country-specific conditions.
The key assumption in the determination of the net defined benefit asset/liability is the discount rate. The
discount rate is the weighted average of the discount rates that are applied in different regions where ING
Group has defined benefit pension plans (weighted by the defined benefit obligation). The discount rate is
based on a methodology that uses market yields on high quality corporate bonds of the specific regions with
durations matching the pension liabilities as key input. Market yields of high quality corporate bonds reflect
the yield on corporate bonds with an AA rating for durations where such yields are available. An
extrapolation is applied in order to determine the yield to the longer durations for which no AA-rated
corporate bonds are available. As a result of the limited availability of long-duration AA-rated corporate
bonds, extrapolation is an important element of the determination of the discount rate. The weighted
average discount rate applied for net defined benefit asset/liability for 2024 was 4.4% (2023: 4.0%) based on
the pension plan in the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, the United States of America, and the United
Kingdom. The average discount rate applied for Other post-employment benefits in 2024 was 5.7% (2023:
5.2%).
Sensitivity analysis of key assumptions
ING performs sensitivity analyses on the most significant assumptions: discount rates, mortality, expected
rate of salary increase, and indexation. The sensitivity analysis has been carried out under the assumption
that the changes occurred at the end of the reporting period.
The sensitivity analysis calculates the financial impact on the defined benefit obligation of an increase or
decrease of the weighted averages of each significant actuarial assumption with all other assumptions held
constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur, and some changes of the assumptions may be correlated.
Changes to mortality, expected rate of salary increase, and indexation would have no material impact on
the defined benefit obligation. The most significant impact would be from a change in the discount rate. An
increase or decrease in the discount rate of 1.0% creates an impact on the defined benefit obligation of EUR
212 million (increase) and EUR 253 million (decrease), respectively.
Expected cash flows
ING Group\u2019s subsidiaries should fund the cost of the entitlements expected to be earned on a yearly basis.
For 2025, the expected contributions to defined benefit pension plans are EUR 48\u00a0million.
The benefit payments for defined benefit and other post-employment benefits expected to be made by the
plan between 2025-2029 are estimated to be between EUR 145 million and EUR 156 million per year. From
2029 to 2033, the total payments made by the plan are expected to be EUR 768\u00a0million.

Share plans
ING grants various types of share awards, namely deferred and upfront shares, which form part of the
variable remuneration offering via the Long-term Sustainable Performance Plan (LSPP). The entitlement to
the LSPP share awards is granted conditionally. If the participant remains in employment for an
uninterrupted period between the grant date and the vesting date, the entitlement becomes unconditional,
with the exception of the upfront shares which are immediately vested upon grant. Upfront and deferred
shares awarded to the Executive Board and Management Board members of ING Group as well as identified
staff, have a retention obligation that must be adhered to upon vesting, typically a minimum retention of 12
months applies for staff and up to 60 months for Board. ING has the authority to apply a holdback to
awarded but unvested shares and a clawback to vested shares.
The share awards granted in 2024 relate to the performance year 2023. In 2024, 59,490 share awards (2023:
52,693; 2022: 55,651) were granted to the members of the Executive Board of ING Groep N.V., and 121,504
share awards (2023: 172,103; 2022: 137,506) were granted to the Management Board Banking. To senior
management and other employees 4,248,400 share awards (2023: 3,244,951; 2022: 2,913,926) were
granted.
In 2024 and 2023, shares are bought back from the market to fund share plans. In 2022 the obligations with
regard to share plans were funded by newly issued shares at the discretion of ING Group.\u00a0

3,699,555). These all are related to equity-settled share-based payment arrangements, as cash-settled
share-based payment arrangements were terminated in 2023.
The fair value of share awards granted is recognised as an expense under Staff expenses and is allocated
over the vesting period of the share awards. The fair value calculation takes into account the current share
prices, expected volatilities and the dividend yield of ING shares.
As at 31\u00a0December 2024, total unrecognised compensation costs related to share awards amount to EUR 25
million (2023: EUR 15 million; 2022: EUR 13 million). These costs are expected to be recognised over a
weighted average period of 2.0 years (2023: 2.0 years; 2022 : 1.9 years).

Earnings per ordinary share is calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding. In calculating the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, own shares held
by group companies (including share buyback programmes) are deducted from the total number of ordinary
shares in issue.
Dilutive instruments
Diluted earnings per share is calculated as if the share plans outstanding at the end of the period had been
exercised at the beginning of the period and assuming that the cash received from dilutive instruments (if
any) is used to buy own shares against the average market price during the period. The net increase in the
number of shares resulting from exercising share plans is added to the average number of shares used for
the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

30\u00a0 Segments
ING Group\u2019s segments are based on the internal reporting structure by lines of business.
The Executive Board of ING Group and the Management Board Banking (together the Chief Operating
Decision Maker (CODM)) set the performance targets, and approve and monitor the budgets prepared by the
business lines. Business lines formulate strategic, commercial, and financial plans in conformity with the
strategy and performance targets set by the CODM.
Recognition and measurement of segment results are in line with the accounting policies as described in
Note 1 'Basis of preparation and material accounting policy information'. The results for the period for each
reportable segment are after intercompany and intersegment eliminations and are those reviewed by the
CODM to assess performance of the segments. Corporate expenses are allocated to business lines based on
time spent by head office personnel, the relative number of staff, or on the basis of income, expenses and/or
assets of the segment. Interest income per segment is reported as net interest income because
management relies primarily on net (rather than gross) interest revenue to assess the performance of the
segments.
The following table specifies the segments by line of business and the main sources of income of each of the
segments:
Specification of the main sources of income of each of the segments by line of business
Segments by line of business
Main source of income
Retail Netherlands
Income from products and services provided to private individuals, business banking
clients and private banking clients in the Netherlands. The main products and services
offered are daily banking, lending, savings, investments and insurance.
Retail Belgium
Income from products and services provided to private individuals, business banking
clients and private banking clients in Belgium and Luxembourg. The main products and
services offered are similar to those in the Netherlands.
Retail Germany
Income from products and services provided to private individuals, business banking
clients and private banking clients in Germany. The main products and services offered
are similar to those in the Netherlands.
Retail Other
Income from products and services provided to private individuals, business banking
clients and private banking clients in the other retail countries. The main products and
services offered are similar to those in the Netherlands.
Wholesale Banking
Income from wholesale banking activities, of which the main products are lending,
payments & cash management, working capital solutions, trade finance, financial
markets, corporate finance and treasury.

Corporate Line
1 In 2022, ING discontinued its retail activities in France (Other Challengers) and the Philippines (Growth Markets).
ING Group monitors and evaluates the performance of ING Group at a consolidated level and by segment.
The Executive Board and the Management Board Banking consider this to be relevant to an understanding of
the Group\u2019s financial performance, because it allows investors to understand the primary method used by
management to evaluate the Group\u2019s operating performance and make decisions about allocating resources.
ING Group reconciles the total segment results to the total result using Corporate Line. The Corporate Line
includes capital management activities, as ING Group applies a system of capital charging for its banking
operations in order to create a comparable basis for the results of business units globally, irrespective of the
business units\u2019 book equity and the currency they operate in.
Corporate Line includes certain other income and expenses that are not allocated to the banking businesses.
Furthermore, as from 2022, results in the Corporate Line have been impacted by the application of
hyperinflation accounting in the consolidation of our subsidiary in T\u00fcrkiye (IAS 29). Total income for
Corporate Line in 2024 amounted to EUR 378 million compared with EUR 450 million in 2023. This included a
hyperinflation accounting impact of EUR -117 million in 2024 versus EUR -179 million in 2023. Excluding
hyperinflation accounting impact, total income declined by EUR 134 million, mainly attributable to a lower
net interest income from Treasury, partly offset by the recognition of a EUR 53 million receivable related to a
prior insolvency of a financial institution in the Netherlands (recorded in other income). Operating expenses
for Corporate Line were EUR 533 million, 1.7% down from EUR 542 million in 2023. Expenses in 2024 included
a hyperinflation impact of EUR 35 million, EUR 25 million of restructuring costs, EUR 22 million for a one-off
CLA related payment to our staff in the Netherlands and a EUR 21 million litigation provision. Expenses in
2023 had included a hyperinflation impact of EUR 48 million and EUR 51 million that had been provisioned.
The information presented in this note is in line with the information presented to the Executive Board of ING
Group and Management Board Banking. This note does not provide information on the types of products and
services from which each reportable segment derives its revenues, as this is not reported internally and is
therefore not readily available.

31\u00a0 Information on geographical areas
ING Group \u2019s business lines operate in different geographical areas: the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Rest
of Europe and Rest of the World. The geographical analyses are based on the location of the office from
which the transactions are originated and do not include countries where ING only has representation
offices. The Netherlands is ING Group\u2019s country of domicile.
In order to increase ING Group\u2019s tax transparency, additional financial information on a per country basis has
been included in this disclosure: Tax paid represents all income tax paid to and/or received from tax
authorities in the current year, irrespective of the fiscal year to which these payments or refunds relate.
Total assets by country do not include intercompany balances and reconcile to the total assets in the
consolidated statement of financial position of ING Group.
ING Group is subject to top-up tax (Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules (Pillar Two)) in relation to its
operations in countries where the effective tax rate falls below 15%. This includes Switzerland, Ireland and
Bulgaria as a result of their lower nominal tax rates, as well as Singapore, where special local tax rates for
certain types of income reduce the effective tax rate.
ING Group has applied a temporary mandatory relief from deferred tax accounting for the impacts of the
top-up tax and accounts for it as a current tax when it is incurred. The total top-up tax that is expected to be
paid by ING Group per jurisdiction over 2024 amounts to EUR 9.5 million.

The above table shows netted deferred tax amounts related to right-of-use assets and lease liabilities
included in the row \u2018Other\u2019, and includes a deferred tax amount for right-of-use assets of EUR 178 million
(2023: EUR 195 million and 2022: EUR 205 million) and a deferred tax amount for lease liabilities of EUR 197
million (2023: EUR 217 million and 2022: EUR 231 million).
The deferred tax on cash flow hedges relate to floating rate lending with interest rate swaps. Due to
decreased (longer-term) interest rate yield curve in 2024 there was a positive revaluation of the cash flow
hedge through other comprehensive income. This resulted in a decline in the deferred tax asset by EUR -138
million compared to the decline in deferred tax assets in 2023 by EUR -251 million due to the decline in the
interest yield curve. The deferred tax asset in cash flow hedges decreased from EUR 502 million in 2023 to
EUR 363\u00a0 million in 2024.
The deferred tax on Loans and advances changes through net result in 2024 EUR -49 million (2023: EUR -140\u00a0
million) relates mainly to valuation changes of collectively assessed expected credit losses.
Unused tax losses carried forward declined by EUR 124 million mainly due to realised results on derivatives
used in Cash flow hedging which in previous years led to a tax loss in Poland.
The deferred tax changes through equity - Other in 2024 of EUR -41 million (2023:EUR 13 million) is due to FX
developments following the USD appreciation and the application of IAS 29 Hyperinflation in T\u00fcrkiye, and
also due to the decline in the Credit Liability Reserve due to credit spread tightening.\u00a0 \u00a0

The table above includes a breakdown of certain net deferred tax asset positions by jurisdiction for which the
utilisation of the deferred tax asset is dependent on future taxable profits in excess of the profits arising from
the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences whilst the related entities have incurred losses in
either the current or the preceding year.
In 2024 as in 2023, ING Bank Slaski (Poland) realised a tax profit following the value changes of the cash flow
hedge derivatives which are settled net via a central clearing party, whereas in the years before, ING Bank
Slaski incurred a tax loss following the large value changes of the cash flow hedge derivatives. In 2024 ING
Slaski utilised the tax assets related to the 2023 unused tax losses carried forward.
At 31 December 2024 and 2023, ING Group had no significant temporary differences associated with the
parent company\u2019s investments in subsidiaries and associates as any economic benefit from those
investments will not be taxable at parent company-level.

The effective tax rate of 28.5% in 2024 is higher than the weighted average statutory tax rate This is mainly
caused by the impact in 2024 of the following non-deductible items for income tax purposes: hyperinflation
accounting loss in T\u00fcrkiye, interest expenses, and bank- and local taxes in various countries. State and local
taxes mainly relate to Base Erosion and anti-Abuse Tax (BEAT) in the United States of America and top-up
Tax based on Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules (Pillar Two).
The effective tax rate of 28.3% in 2023 was higher than the weighted average statutory tax rate. This is
mainly caused by the impact in 2023 of the following non-deductible items for income tax purposes:
hyperinflation accounting loss in T\u00fcrkiye, interest expenses, and bank- and local taxes in various countries.
Adjustments to prior periods mainly relate to a tax refund in Spain.
The effective tax rate of 31.4% in 2022 was higher than the weighted average statutory tax rate. This is
mainly caused by the impact in 2022 of the following non-deductible items for income tax purposes:
hyperinflation accounting loss in T\u00fcrkiye, impairments on TTB, and interest expenses in various countries.

The table above includes a breakdown of certain net deferred tax asset positions by jurisdiction for which the
utilisation of the deferred tax asset is dependent on future taxable profits in excess of the profits arising from
the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences whilst the related entities have incurred losses in
either the current or the preceding year.
In 2024 as in 2023, ING Bank Slaski (Poland) realised a tax profit following the value changes of the cash flow
hedge derivatives which are settled net via a central clearing party, whereas in the years before, ING Bank
Slaski incurred a tax loss following the large value changes of the cash flow hedge derivatives. In 2024 ING
Slaski utilised the tax assets related to the 2023 unused tax losses carried forward.
At 31 December 2024 and 2023, ING Group had no significant temporary differences associated with the
parent company\u2019s investments in subsidiaries and associates as any economic benefit from those
investments will not be taxable at parent company-level.

34\u00a0 Fair value of assets and liabilities
a) Valuation methods
The estimated fair values represent the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It is a market-
based measurement, which is based on assumptions that market participants would use and takes into
account the characteristics of the asset or liability that market participants would take into account when
pricing the asset or liability.
Fair values of financial assets and liabilities are based on quoted prices in active market where available.
When such quoted prices are not available, the fair value is determined by using valuation techniques.
b) Valuation control framework
The valuation control framework covers the product approval process (PARP), pricing, market data
assessment and independent price verification (IPV), valuation adjustments, model use, fair value hierarchy
and day one profit or loss. Valuation processes are governed by various governance bodies, including Local
Parameter Committees, the Global Valuation and Impairment Committee, the Market Data Committee and
the Valuation Model Committee. All relevant committees meet on a regular basis (monthly/quarterly), where
the agenda covers the aforementioned valuation controls.
The Global Valuation and Impairment Committee is responsible for the oversight and the approval of the
outcome of impairments (other than loan loss provisions) and valuation processes. It oversees the quality
and coherence of valuation methodologies and performance. The Valuation Model Committee is responsible
for the approval of all valuation models used for the Fair valuation (IFRS) and Prudent Valuation (CRR) of
positions measured at fair value. The Local Parameter Committee discusses the valuation results and
monitors the performance of the valuation activities carried out on local or regional level. The Global
Financial Markets Parameter Committee reviews the consolidated valuation outcome and resulting P&L for
Financial Market products, targeting a globally consistent treatment across Financial Markets. The Market
Data Committee is responsible for the approval of the market data used in valuation.\u00a0
c) Valuation adjustments
Valuation adjustments are an integral part of the fair value. They are the adjustments to the output from a
valuation technique in order to appropriately determine a fair value in accordance with IFRS13. ING considers
various fair value adjustments including Bid-Offer adjustments, Model Risk adjustments, Bilateral Valuation
Adjustments (BVA, consisting of Credit Valuation Adjustments or CVA, and Debit valuation Adjustments or
DVA), Collateral Valuation Adjustment (CollVA) and Funding Valuation Adjustment (FVA).
For financial instruments where the fair value at initial recognition is based on one or more significant
unobservable inputs, a difference between the transaction price and the fair value resulting from the internal
valuation process can occur. Such difference is referred to as Day One Profit or Day One Loss (hereafter:
DOP). ING defers material DOP of instruments with significant unobservable valuation inputs, which are the
financial instruments classified as Level 3 and financial instruments with material unobservable inputs into
CVA which are not necessarily classified as Level 3. The DOP is amortised over the life of the instrument, or
until the significant unobservable inputs become observable, or until the significant unobservable inputs
become non-significant. Both the impact on the profit and loss in 2024 and the DOP reserve is disclosed in
the below table.
Deferred Day One Profit or Loss Reserve
The table below summarises the movement in the aggregate DOP not recognised when financial
instruments were initially recognised, because of the use of valuation techniques for which not all the inputs
were market observable data.

Own Credit Adjustment
Own issued debt and structured notes that are designated at fair value through profit or loss are adjusted for
ING\u2019s own credit risk by means of DVA.
Bid-Offer Adjustment
For positions priced based upon mid-market input parameters, Bid-Offer adjustments are required in order to
reflect the valuation of that position based on bid price or offer price. In practice this adjustment accounts for
the difference in valuation from \u2018mid to bid\u2019 and \u2018mid to offer\u2019 for long and short exposures respectively. In
principle, assets are valued at the bid prices and liabilities are valued at the offer price. For certain assets or
liabilities, where a market-quoted price is not available, the price used is the fair value that is most
representative within the bid-offer spread.
Model Risk Adjustment
Financial instruments that are valued using a valuation model can be subject to model risk. Model risk is the
risk of possible financial loss resulting from a pricing model or model-based parameter deficiencies and/or
uncertainties.
Bilateral Valuation Adjustments (Credit and Debit Valuation Adjustments)\u00a0
Bilateral Valuation Adjustment is the valuation adjustment reflecting the counterparty credit risk of
derivative contracts. It has a bilateral nature, where both the counterparty\u2019s credit risk (i.e. Credit Valuation
Adjustment or CVA) and ING\u2019s own credit risk (Debit Valuation Adjustment or DVA) are taken into account:
\u2022 CVA is the fair value adjustment applicable to derivative instruments to account for the possibility that
the counterparty defaults (i.e. it is the market value of the counterparty\u2019s credit risk).
\u2022 DVA is the fair value adjustment applicable to derivative instruments to account for the possibility that
ING defaults (i.e. it is the market value of ING\u2019s credit risk).
The calculation of CVA and DVA on derivatives is based on their expected exposures, and the counterparties\u2019
and ING\u2019s risk of default, taking into account the collateral agreements as well as netting agreements. The
counterparties\u2019 risk of default is measured by probability of default and expected loss given default, which is
based on market information including credit default swap (CDS) spreads. Where counterparty CDS spreads
are not available, relevant proxy spreads are used. Additionally, wrong-way risk (which occurs when the
probability of default by the counterparty increases or decreases when ING\u2019s exposure to the counterparty
increases (decreases)) and right-way risk (which occurs when the probability of default by the counterparty
increases (decreases) when ING\u2019s exposure to the counterparty decreases (increases)) are included in the
adjustment.
Collateral Valuation Adjustment (CollVA)
Collateral Valuation Adjustment is a fair valuation adjustment applied on derivative instruments to capture
specific features of CSA (Credit Support Annex) with a counterparty that the regular OIS discounting
framework does not capture. Non-standard CSA features may include deviations in relation to the currencies
in which ING posts or receives collateral, deviations in the remuneration rate on collateral which may pay
lower or higher rate than the overnight rate or even no interest at all; other deviations can be posting
securities rather than cash as collateral.
Funding Valuation Adjustment (FVA)
Funding Valuation Adjustment (FVA) is a fair valuation adjustment applied on derivative instruments to
address the asymmetry in funding costs or funding benefits between collateralised and uncollateralised
derivative portfolios. This adjustment is based on the expected exposure profiles of the uncollateralised or
partially collateralised OTC derivatives and market-based funding spreads.
Other Valuation Adjustments
This pertains to other valuation adjustments that are immaterial to ING. Most of the balance consists of the
Market Price Uncertainty (MPU) adjustment in fair value, which accounts for the price uncertainty risk
inherent in the valuation inputs to fair value.
d) Fair value hierarchy
ING Group has categorised its financial instruments that are either measured in the statement of financial
position at fair value or of which the fair value is disclosed, into a three level hierarchy based on the
observability of the valuation inputs. Highest priority is retained to unadjusted quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to valuation techniques supported by
unobservable inputs.
Transfers into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels are made on a quarterly basis at the end of the
reporting period.
Level 1 \u2013 (Unadjusted) quoted prices in active markets
This category includes financial instruments whose fair value is determined directly by reference to
(unadjusted) quoted prices in an active market. A financial instrument is regarded as quoted in an active
market if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer markets, brokered
markets, or principal to principal markets. Those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market
transactions with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Transfers out of Level 1 into Level 2 or Level 3 occur when ING Group establishes that markets are no longer
active and therefore (unadjusted) quoted prices no longer provide reliable pricing information.
Level 2 \u2013 Valuation technique supported by observable inputs
This category includes financial instruments whose fair value is based on market observable inputs, either
directly or indirectly, other than quoted prices included within Level 1. The fair value for financial instruments
in this category can be determined by reference to quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets,
quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted
prices that are observable or market-corroborated inputs. ING analyses how the prices are derived and
determines whether the prices are liquid tradable prices or model-based consensus prices taking various
data as inputs.
For financial instruments that do not have a reference price available, fair value is determined using a
valuation technique (e.g., a model), where inputs in the model are taken from an active market or are
observable, such as interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, implied
volatilities, and credit spreads.
Instruments where inputs are unobservable are classified in this category, provided that the impact of those
unobservable inputs on the overall valuation is insignificant. The notion of significant is particularly relevant
for the distinction between Level 2 and Level 3 assets and liabilities, as the significance assessment of the
valuation input on the entire fair value measurement will determine whether the instrument should be
classified as Level 2 or Level 3. Expert judgement is required on the significance assessment approach.
Level 3 \u2013 Valuation technique supported by unobservable inputs
This category includes financial instruments whose fair value is determined using a valuation technique for
which a significant part of the overall valuation is driven by unobservable valuation inputs. Where valuation
inputs are unobservable, the Group must use the best information available to value the instruments. This
may require internally derived inputs taking into account market participants' assumptions that are
reasonably available, including assumptions on the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to
measure fair value and the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Unobservable inputs may
include, among others, volatility, correlation, spreads to discount rates, default rates, recovery rates,
prepayment rates, and certain credit spreads.

The following methods and assumptions were used by ING Group to estimate the fair value of the financial
instruments:
Equity securities
Instrument description: Equity securities include stocks and shares, corporate investments and private
equity investments.
Valuation: If available, the fair values of publicly traded equity securities and private equity securities are
based on quoted market prices. In the absence of active markets, fair values are estimated by analysing the
investee\u2019s financial position, result, risk profile, prospect, price, earnings comparisons and revenue multiples.
Additionally, reference is made to valuations of peer entities where quoted prices in active markets are
available. For equity securities, best market practice will be applied using the most relevant valuation
method. All non-listed equity investments, including investments in private equity funds, are subject to a
standard review framework which ensures that valuations reflect the fair values.
Fair value hierarchy: The majority of equity securities are publicly traded, and quoted prices are readily and
regularly available. Hence, these securities are classified as Level 1.\u00a0 Equity securities which are not traded in
active markets mainly include corporate investments, fund investments and other equity securities and are
classified as Level 3.
Debt securities
Instrument description: Debt securities include government bonds, financial institutions bonds and Asset-
backed securities (ABS).
Valuation: Where available, fair values for debt securities are generally based on quoted market prices.
Quoted market prices are obtained from an exchange market, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service,
or regulatory service. The quoted prices from non-exchange sources are reviewed on their tradability of
market prices. If quoted prices in an active market are not available, fair value is based on an analysis of
available market inputs, which include consensus prices obtained from one or more pricing services.
Furthermore, fair values are determined by valuation techniques discounting expected future cash flows
using market interest rate curves, referenced credit spreads, maturity of the investment, and estimated
prepayment rates where applicable.
Fair value hierarchy: Government bonds and financial institution bonds are generally traded in active
markets. Where quoted prices are readily and regularly available, they are classified as Level 1. The
remaining positions are classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the trading activity and observability of
prices. Asset backed securities for which no active market is available and a wide discrepancy in quoted
prices exists, are classified as Level 3.
Derivatives
Instrument description: Derivative contracts can either be exchange-traded or over the counter (OTC).
Derivatives include interest rate derivatives, FX derivatives, credit derivatives, equity derivatives and
commodity derivatives.
Valuation: The fair value of exchange-traded derivatives is determined using quoted market prices in an
active market and are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. For instruments that are not actively
traded, fair values are estimated based on valuation techniques. OTC derivatives and derivatives trading in
an inactive market are valued using valuation techniques. The valuation techniques and inputs depend on
the type of derivatives and the nature of the underlying instruments. The principal techniques used to value
these instruments are based on, among others, discounted cash flows, option pricing models and Monte
Carlo simulations. These valuation models calculate the present value of expected future cash flows, based
on \u2018no-arbitrage\u2019 principles. The models are commonly used in the financial industry and inputs to the
validation models are determined from observable market data where possible. Certain inputs may not be
observable in the market, but can be determined from observable prices via valuation model calibration
procedures. These inputs include prices available from exchanges, dealers, brokers or providers of pricing,
yield curves, credit spreads, default rates, recovery rates, dividend rates, volatility of underlying interest
rates, equity prices, and foreign currency exchange rates and reference is made to quoted prices, recently
executed trades, independent market quotes and consensus data, where available. For uncollateralised OTC
derivatives, ING applies Credit Valuation Adjustment to correctly reflect the counterparty credit risk in the
valuation and Debit Valuation Adjustments to reflect the credit risk of ING for its counterparty. In addition, for
these derivatives ING applies Funding Valuation Adjustment. See sections CVA/DVA and FVA in section c)
Valuation Adjustments for more details regarding the calculation.
Fair value hierarchy: The majority of the derivatives are priced using observable inputs and are classified as
Level 2. Derivatives for which the input cannot be implied from observable market data are classified as Level 3.
Loans and receivables
Instrument description: Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable
payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables carried at fair value include trading
loans, being securities lending and similar agreement comparable to collateralised lending, syndicated loans,
loans expected to be sold and receivables with regards to reverse repurchase transactions.
Valuation: The fair value of loans and receivables is generally estimated by discounting expected future cash
flows using a discount rate that reflects credit risk, liquidity, and other current market conditions. The fair
value of mortgage loans is estimated by taking into account prepayment behaviour.
Fair value hierarchy: Loans and receivables are predominantly classified as Level 2. Loans and receivables
for which current market information about similar assets to use as observable, corroborated data for all
significant inputs into a valuation model is not available, are classified as Level 3.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss
Instrument description: Financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss include debt securities and
debt instruments, primarily comprised of structured notes, which are held at fair value under the fair value
option. Besides that, they include derivative contracts and repurchase agreements.
Valuation: The fair values of securities in the trading portfolio and other liabilities at fair value through profit
or loss are based on quoted market prices, where available. For those securities not actively traded, fair
values are estimated based on internal discounted cash flow valuation techniques using interest rates and
credit spreads that apply to similar instruments.
Fair value hierarchy: The majority of the derivatives and debt instruments are classified as Level 2.
Derivatives and debt instruments for which the input cannot be derived from observable market data are
classified as Level 3.
e) Transfers between Level 1 and 2
As a consequence of change in observable inputs, ING recorded a EUR 0.8 billion transfer from Level 2 to
Level 1 in debt securities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. No significant
transfers from Level 1 to Level 2 were recorded in the reporting period 2024.
f) Level 3: Valuation techniques and inputs used
Financial assets and liabilities in Level 3 include both assets and liabilities for which the fair value was
determined using (i) valuation techniques that incorporate unobservable inputs as well as (ii) quoted prices
which have been adjusted to reflect that the market was not actively trading at or around the balance sheet
date. Unobservable inputs are inputs which are based on ING\u2019s own assumptions about the factors that
market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, developed based on the best information
available in the circumstances. Unobservable inputs may include volatility, correlation, spreads to discount
rates, default rates and recovery rates, prepayment rates, and certain credit spreads. Valuation techniques
that incorporate unobservable inputs are sensitive to the inputs used.
Of the total amount of financial assets classified as Level 3 as at 31\u00a0December 2024 of EUR 11.0 billion
(31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 9.1 billion), an amount of EUR 9.6 billion (87.2%) (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 7.0 billion,
being 76.7%) is based on unadjusted quoted prices in inactive markets. As ING does not generally adjust
quoted prices using its own inputs, there is no significant sensitivity to ING\u2019s own unobservable inputs.
Furthermore, Level 3 financial assets include EUR 0.1 billion (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.3 billion) which relates
to financial assets that are part of structures that are designed to be fully neutral in terms of market risk.
Such structures include various financial assets and liabilities for which the overall sensitivity to market risk is
insignificant. Whereas the fair value of individual components of these structures may be determined using
different techniques and the fair value of each of the components of these structures may be sensitive to
unobservable inputs, the overall sensitivity is by design not significant.
The remaining EUR 1.3 billion (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 1.8 billion) of the fair value classified in Level 3
financial assets is established using valuation techniques that incorporate certain inputs that are
unobservable.
Of the total amount of financial liabilities classified as Level 3 as at 31\u00a0December 2024 of EUR 0.8 billion
(31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.7 billion), an amount of EUR 0.6 billion (75.7%) (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.4
billion, being 50.0%) is based on unadjusted quoted prices in inactive markets. As ING does not generally
adjust quoted prices using its own inputs, there is no significant sensitivity to ING\u2019s own unobservable inputs.
Furthermore, Level 3 financial liabilities include EUR 0.1 billion (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.3 billion) which
relates to financial liabilities that are part of structures that are designed to be fully neutral in terms of
market risk. As explained above, the fair value of each of the components of these structures may be
sensitive to unobservable inputs, but the overall sensitivity is by design not significant.
The remaining EUR 0.1 billion (31\u00a0December 2023: EUR 0.1 billion) of the fair value classified in Level 3
financial liabilities is established using valuation techniques that incorporates certain inputs that are
unobservable.
The table below provides a summary of the valuation techniques, key unobservable inputs and the lower
and upper range of such unobservable inputs, by type of Level 3 asset/liability. The lower and upper range
mentioned in the overview represent the lowest and highest variance of the respective valuation input as
actually used in the valuation of the different financial instruments. Amounts and percentages stated are
unweighted. The range can vary from period to period subject to market movements and change in Level\u00a03
position. Lower and upper bounds reflect the variability of Level 3 positions and their underlying valuation
inputs in the portfolio, but do not adequately reflect their level of valuation uncertainty. For valuation
uncertainty assessment, reference is made to section Sensitivity analysis of unobservable inputs (Level 3).

1 The abbreviation n.a. stands for not applicable or not available.
Price
For securities where market prices are not available, fair value is measured by comparison with observable
pricing data from similar instruments. Prices of 0% are distressed to the point that no recovery is expected,
while prices significantly in excess of 100% or par are expected to pay a yield above current market rates.
Credit spreads
Credit spread is the premium above a benchmark interest rate required by the market participant to accept
a lower credit quality. Higher credit spreads indicate lower credit quality and a lower value of an asset.
Volatility
Volatility is a measure for variation of the price of a financial instrument or other valuation input over time.
Volatility is one of the key inputs in option pricing models. Typically, the higher the volatility, the higher value
of the option. Volatility varies by the underlying reference (equity, commodity, foreign currency and interest
rates), by strike, and maturity of the option. The minimum level of volatility is 0% and there is no theoretical
maximum.
Correlation
Correlation is a measure of dependence between two underlying references which is relevant for valuing
derivatives and other instruments having more than one underlying reference. High positive correlation
(close to 1) indicates a strong positive (statistical) relationship, where underliers move, everything else equal,
into the same direction. The same holds for a high negative correlation.
Interest rate
An interest rate is the amount of interest due per period, as a proportion of the amount lent, deposited, or
borrowed.
Reset spread
Reset spreads are key inputs to mortgage-linked prepayment swaps valuation. Reset spread is the future
spread at which mortgages will re-price at interest rate reset dates.
Dividend yield
Dividend yield is an important input for equity option pricing models showing how much dividends a
company is expected to pay out each year relative to its share price. Dividend yields are generally expressed
as an annualised percentage of share price.
Payout ratio
Dividend payout ratio is an input that shows the percentage of dividends a company is expected to pay out
each year relative to its net income.
Prepayment rate
Prepayment rate is a key input to mortgage and loan valuation. Prepayment rate is the estimated rate at
which mortgage borrowers will repay their mortgages early, e.g. 5% per year. Prepayment rate and reset
spread are key inputs to mortgage-linked prepayment swaps valuation.

1 Net gains/losses were recorded as \u2018Valuation results and net trading income\u2019 in the statement of profit or loss. The total amounts includes EUR -41 million (2023: EUR 316 million) of unrealised gains and losses recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
2 Revaluation recognised in other comprehensive income is included on the line \u2018Net change in fair value of debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income\u2019.
In 2024 and 2023, transfers into and out of Level 3 of financial assets mandatorily at fair value mainly relate
to (long- term) reverse repurchase transactions for which the valuation being significantly impacted by
unobservable inputs and no longer significantly impacted by unobservable inputs, respectively.
In 2024, the transfer into Level 3 trading assets consisted of cross currency swap trades, which were
transferred to Level 3 as a result of the valuation being significantly impacted by unobservable inputs.
Conversely, the transfer out of Level 3 in trading assets and non-trading derivatives primarily involved
derivative instruments, as their valuations were no longer significantly impacted by unobservable inputs.
In 2024, the transfer out of Level 3 of financial assets at FVOCI relates to HtC&S portfolio transferred to Level
2 resulting from change in methodology.
In 2023, the transfer into Level 3 trading assets is mainly driven by debt securities that are part of a structure
transferred into level 3 due to market illiquidity which decreased observability for an input.

1 Net gains/losses were recorded as \u2018Valuation results and net trading income\u2019 in the statement of profit or loss. The total amount
includes EUR -206 million (2023: EUR 72\u00a0million) of unrealised gains and losses recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
In 2024, the transfers into Level 3 mainly consisted of trading liabilities attributed to cross currency swap
trades transferred into Level 3 as a result of the valuation being significantly impacted by unobservable
inputs. The transfers out of Level 3 for non-trading derivatives are driven by interest rate swap trades, which
were reclassified out of Level 3 as their valuations were no longer influenced by significantly unobservable
inputs.
In 2023, transfers of financial liabilities into and out of Level 3 mainly consisted of structured notes,
measured as designated at fair value through profit or loss. The structured notes were transferred out of
Level 3 as the valuation was no longer impacted by significantly unobservable inputs.
g) Recognition of unrealised gains and losses in Level 3
Amounts recognised in the statement of profit or loss relating to unrealised gains and losses during the year
that relate to Level 3 assets and liabilities are included in the line item \u2018Valuation results and net trading
income\u2019 in the statement of profit or loss.
h) Level 3: Sensitivity analysis of unobservable inputs
Where the fair value of a financial instrument is determined using inputs which are unobservable and which
have a more than insignificant impact on the fair value of the instrument, the actual value of those inputs at
the balance date may be drawn from a range of reasonably possible alternatives. In line with market
practice, the upper and lower bounds of the range of alternative input values reflect a level of valuation
certainty. The actual levels chosen for the unobservable inputs in preparing the financial statements are
consistent with the valuation methodology used for fair valued financial instruments.
In practice, valuation uncertainty is measured and managed per exposure to individual valuation inputs (i.e.
risk factors) at portfolio-level across different product categories. Where the disclosure looks at individual
Level 3 inputs, the actual valuation adjustments may also reflect the benefits of portfolio offsets.
This disclosure does not attempt to indicate or predict future fair value movement. The numbers in isolation
give limited information as in most cases these Level 3 assets and liabilities should be seen in combination
with other instruments (for example as a hedge) that are classified as Level 2.
The valuation uncertainty in the table below is broken down by related risk class rather than by product. The
possible impact of a change of unobservable inputs in the fair value of financial instruments where
unobservable inputs are significant to the valuation is as follows:

1 In accordance with IFRS and for the purpose of this disclosure, the carrying amount of financial instruments with an immediate on demand feature is presented as fair value.
2In 2023, debt securities included a commercial paper issued classified as Level 3. Following a change in valuation technique in 2024, it transferred to Level 2.
The aggregation of the fair values presented above does not represent, and should not be construed as
representing, the underlying value of ING Group. These fair values were calculated for disclosure purposes
only. The carrying amount of financial instruments presented in the above table includes, when applicable,
the fair value hedge adjustment, this explains why (for these cases) the carrying amount approximates fair
value.
Loans and advances to banks
For short-term receivables from banks, carrying amounts represent a reasonable estimate of the fair value.
The fair value of long-term receivables from banks is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows
using a discount rate based on specific available market data, such as interest rates and appropriate
spreads, that reflects current credit risk or quoted bonds.
Loans and advances to customers
For short-term loans, carrying amounts represent a reasonable estimate of the fair value. The fair value of
long-term loans is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a discount rate that reflects
current credit risk, current interest rates, and other current market conditions where applicable. The fair
value of mortgage loans is estimated by taking into account prepayment behaviour. Loans with similar
characteristics are aggregated for calculation purposes.
Securities at amortised cost
Where available, fair values for debt securities are generally based on quoted market prices. Quoted market
prices are obtained from an exchange market, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory
service. The quoted prices from non-exchange sources are reviewed on their tradability of market prices. If
quoted prices in an active market are not available, fair value is based on an analysis of available market
inputs, which include consensus prices obtained from one or more pricing services. Furthermore, fair values
are determined by valuation techniques discounting expected future cash flows using market interest rate
curves, referenced credit spreads, maturity of the investment, and estimated prepayment rates where
applicable.
Deposits from banks
For short-term payables to banks, carrying amounts represent a reasonable estimate of the fair value. The
fair value of long-term payables to banks is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a
discount rate based on available market interest rates and appropriate spreads that reflect ING\u2019s own credit
risk.
Customer deposits
In the current interest rate environment, there is significant embedded value in our on-demand deposits.
However, for the purpose of this disclosure and in accordance with IFRS, the carrying amounts of deposits
with an immediate on demand feature are presented as fair value.
The fair value of deposits with fixed contractual terms has been estimated based on discounting future cash
flows using the interest rates currently applicable to deposits of similar maturities.
Debt securities in issue
The fair value of debt securities in issue is generally based on quoted market prices, or if not available, on
estimated prices by discounting expected future cash flows using a current market interest rate and credit
spreads applicable to the yield, credit quality and maturity.
Subordinated loans
The fair value of publicly traded subordinated loans are based on quoted market prices when available.
Where no quoted market prices are available, fair value of the subordinated loans is estimated using
discounted cash flows based on interest rates and credit spreads that apply to similar instruments.

37\u00a0 Liabilities and off-balance sheet commitments by maturity
The tables below include all liabilities and off-balance sheet commitments by maturity, based on
contractual, undiscounted cash flows. These balances are included in the maturity analysis as follows:
\u2022 Perpetual liabilities are included in the column \u2018Maturity not applicable\u2019.
\u2022 Derivative liabilities are included on a net basis if cash flows are settled net. For other derivative liabilities
the contractual gross cash flow payable is included.
\u2022 Undiscounted future coupon interest on financial liabilities payable is included in a separate line and in
the relevant maturity bucket.
\u2022 Non-financial liabilities are included based on a breakdown of the amounts per statement of financial
position, per expected maturity.
\u2022 Loans and other credit-related commitments are classified on the basis of the earliest date they can be
drawn down.
ING Group\u2019s expected cash flows on some financial liabilities vary significantly from contractual cash flows.
Principal differences are in demand deposits from customers that are expected to remain stable or increase
and in unrecognised loan commitments that are not all expected to be drawn down immediately. Reference
is made to the liquidity risk paragraph in \u2018Risk Management \u2013 Funding and liquidity risk\u2019 for a description on
how liquidity risk is managed.

Guarantees relate both to credit and non-credit substitute guarantees. Credit substitute guarantees are
guarantees given by ING Group in respect of credit granted to customers by a third party. Many of them are
expected to expire without being drawn on and therefore do not necessarily represent future cash outflows.
Irrevocable letters of credit mainly secure payments to third parties for a customer\u2019s foreign and domestic
trade transactions in order to finance a shipment of goods. ING Group\u2019s credit risk in these transactions is
limited since these transactions are collateralised by the commodity shipped and are of a short duration.
Irrevocable facilities mainly constitute unused portions of irrevocable credit facilities granted to corporate
clients. Many of these facilities are for a fixed duration and bear interest at a floating rate. ING Group\u2019s credit
risk and interest rate risk in these transactions is limited. The unused portion of irrevocable credit facilities is
partly secured by customers\u2019 assets or counter-guarantees by the central governments and other public
sector entities under the regulatory requirements. Irrevocable facilities also include commitments made to
purchase securities to be issued by governments and private issuers.
As at 31 December 2024, ING Groep N.V. guarantees various US dollar debentures (that mature on 2026 and
2036) which were issued by a subsidiary of Voya Financial Inc. In accordance with the Shareholder\u2019s
agreement, the net exposure of ING Groep N.V. as at 31 December 2024 and as at 31 December 2023 was
nil, as the outstanding principal amount of the US dollar debentures was fully covered with collateral of EUR
219 million (2023: EUR 205 million) pledged by Voya Financial Inc.
In addition to the items included in contingent liabilities, ING Group has issued certain guarantees as a
participant in collective arrangements of national banking funds and as a participant in required collective
guarantee schemes which apply in different countries.
ING Bank N.V. provided a guarantee to the German Deposit Guarantee Fund (\u2018Einlagensicherungsfonds\u2019 or
ESF) under section 5 (10) of the by-laws of this fund, where ING Bank N.V. indemnifies the Association of
German Banks Berlin against any losses it might incur as result of actions taken with respect to ING
Germany. The ESF is a voluntary collective guarantee scheme for retail savings and deposits in excess of EUR
100,000.
ING uses Irrevocable Payment Commitments (IPCs) for a part of its contributions to the Single Resolution
Fund (SRF). ING Group has EUR 346 million of IPCs outstanding to the SRF as at 31 December 2024 (31
December 2023: EUR 346 million). No IPCs were provided to the SRF during 2024 (2023: EUR 63 million). No
IPCs were called by the SRF in 2024 (2023: nil). Cash collateral provided to the SRF is equal to the outstanding
amount of IPCs.
ING also uses IPCs for a part of its contributions to the Deposit Guarantee Scheme in Germany. Contingent
liabilities for such outstanding IPCs amount to EUR 309 million as at 31 December 2024 (31 December 2023:
EUR 273 million). Of these, EUR 35 million of IPCs were provided to the DGS during 2024 (2023: EUR 36
million). No IPCs were called by the DGS in 2024 (2023: nil). ING posted government bonds as collateral for
the total nominal amount of EUR 336 million as at 31 December 2024 (31 December 2023: EUR 319 million).

Furthermore we refer to Note 41 'Legal proceedings' for any contingent liabilities in respect of legal
proceedings.
41\u00a0 Legal proceedings
ING Group and its consolidated subsidiaries are involved in governmental, regulatory, arbitration and legal
proceedings and investigations in the Netherlands and in a number of foreign jurisdictions, including the U.S.,
involving claims by and against them which arise in the ordinary course of their businesses, including in
connection with their activities as lenders, broker-dealers, underwriters, issuers of securities and investors
and their position as employers and taxpayers. In certain of such proceedings, very large or indeterminate
amounts are sought, including punitive and other damages. While it is not feasible to predict or determine
the ultimate outcome of all pending or threatened governmental, regulatory, arbitration and legal
proceedings and investigations, ING is of the opinion that the proceedings and investigations set out below
may have or have in the recent past had a significant effect on the financial position, profitability or
reputation of the ING and/or the ING and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Settlement agreement: On 4 September 2018, ING announced that it had entered into a settlement
agreement with the Dutch Public Prosecution Service relating to previously disclosed investigations regarding
various requirements for client on-boarding and the prevention of money laundering and corrupt practices.
Following the entry into the settlement agreement, ING has experienced heightened scrutiny from
authorities in various countries. ING is also aware, including as a result of media reports, that other parties
may, among other things, seek to commence legal proceedings against ING in connection with the subject
matter of the settlement. Certain parties filed requests with the Court of Appeal in The Netherlands to
reconsider the prosecutor\u2019s decision to enter into the settlement agreement with ING and not to prosecute
ING or (former) ING employees. In December 2020, the Court of Appeal issued its final ruling. In this ruling the
prosecutors' decision to enter into the settlement agreement with ING was upheld, making the settlement
final. However, in a separate ruling, the Court ordered the prosecution of ING\u2019s former CEO. In December
2024, the Dutch Public Prosecution Service announced that they will ask the Court\u2019s approval not to
prosecute ING\u2019s former CEO.
Litigation by investors: In February and March 2024, ING and certain (former) board members were served
with a writ of summons for litigation in The Netherlands on behalf of investors who claim to have suffered
financial losses in connection with ING\u2019s disclosures on historic shortcomings in its financial economic crime
policies, related risk management and control systems, the investigation by and settlement with the Dutch
authorities in 2018 and related risks for ING. We do not agree with the allegations and will defend ourselves
against these and the claimed damages of EUR 587 million. In February 2025, ING and the (former) board
members have filed their statement of defense against the allegations. Separately, but relating to the same
matters, in July 2024 another group of investors claiming to have suffered financial losses requested
disclosure of certain ING documents and to question witnesses. ING has subsequently filed its response to
the requests made with the court. We follow IFRS rules for taking legal provisions and would disclose
material amounts in this regard if and when applicable - which currently is not the case.\u00a0
Findings regarding AML processes: As previously disclosed, after its September 2018 settlement with Dutch
authorities concerning anti-money laundering matters, and in the context of significantly increased
attention on the prevention of financial economic crime, ING has experienced heightened scrutiny by
authorities in various countries. The interactions with such regulatory and judicial authorities have included,
and can be expected to continue to include, onsite visits, information requests, investigations and other
enquiries. Such interactions, as well as ING\u2019s internal assessments in connection with its global enhancement
programme, have in some cases resulted in satisfactory outcomes, and also have resulted in, and may
continue to result in, findings, or other conclusions which may require appropriate remedial actions by ING,
or may have other consequences. ING intends to continue to work in close cooperation with authorities as it
seeks to improve its management of non-financial risks in terms of policies, tooling, monitoring, governance,
knowledge and behaviour.
In January 2022, a Luxembourg investigating judge informed ING Luxembourg that he intends to instruct the
relevant prosecutor to prepare a criminal indictment regarding alleged shortcomings in the AML process at
ING Luxembourg. In November 2024, the Court decided to refer the case to the \u2018Tribunal Correctionnel\u2019 for
alleged shortcomings in a limited number of individual client files. ING Luxembourg filed an appeal against
this procedural decision. It is currently not possible to determine how this matter will be resolved or the
timing of any such resolution, ING does not expect a financial outcome of this matter to have a material
effect.
ING\u2019s subsidiary Payvision was the subject of a criminal investigation by Dutch authorities regarding money
laundering and various requirements of the Dutch act on Anti-Money Laundering and Counter Terrorist
Financing, focusing on the period from 1 January 2015 up to and including April 2020. Payvision cooperated
with such investigation. In October 2021, the phasing out of Payvision was announced. The phasing out of
activities and the transfer of customers to a new service provider were completed in 2022. At the request of
Payvision, its license has been withdrawn. In April 2024, the Dutch authorities closed the investigation,
without charges against Payvision, but with the issuance of a penalty order against two former directors of
Payvision.
ING continues to take steps to enhance its management of compliance risks and embed stronger awareness
across the whole organisation. These steps are part of the global 'know your customer' (KYC) programme
and set of initiatives, which includes enhancing KYC files and working on various structural improvements in
compliance policies, tooling, monitoring, governance, knowledge and behaviour.
Tax cases : Because of the geographic spread of its business, ING may be subject to tax audits, investigations
and procedures in numerous jurisdictions at any point in time. Although ING believes that it has adequately
provided for all its tax positions, the ultimate resolution of these audits, investigations and procedures is
uncertain and may result in liabilities which are materially different from the amounts recognised.
Litigation regarding products of a former subsidiary in Mexico: Proceedings in which ING is involved include
complaints and lawsuits concerning the performance of certain interest sensitive products that were sold by
a former subsidiary of ING in Mexico.
Claims regarding accounts with predecessors of ING Bank T\u00fcrkiye: ING Bank T\u00fcrkiye has received
numerous claims from (former) customers of legal predecessors of ING Bank T\u00fcrkiye. The claims are based
on offshore accounts held with these banks, which banks were seized by the Savings Deposit Insurance Fund
(\u201cSDIF\u201d) prior to the acquisition of ING Bank T\u00fcrkiye in 2007 from OYAK. Pursuant to the acquisition contract,
ING Bank T\u00fcrkiye can claim compensation from SDIF if a court orders ING Bank T\u00fcrkiye to pay amounts to
the offshore account holders. SDIF has made payments to ING Bank T\u00fcrkiye pursuant to such compensation
requests, but filed various lawsuits to receive those amounts back. In April 2022, the Turkish Supreme Court
decided that the prescription period for the offshore account holders\u2019 compensation claims starts on the
transfer date of the account holders to the offshore accounts. As of January 2025, three lawsuits have been
finalized in favour of ING Bank T\u00fcrkiye with the Turkish Supreme Court\u2019s verdict, which are likely to be
precedent decisions for the other ongoing files.
In 2024 SDIF initiated enforcement procedures against ING Bank T\u00fcrkiye, based on the decision in April 2022
by the Turkish Supreme Court referred to above. SDIF alleges that this decision means that ING Bank T\u00fcrkiye
has to return certain payments made by SDIF regarding the offshore depositors' receivables cases, as the
statute of limitations had already expired.
At this moment it is not possible to assess the outcome of these procedures nor to provide an estimate of
the (potential) financial effect of these claims.
Interest rate derivatives claims: In the past a uniform recovery framework for Dutch SME clients with interest
rate derivatives was established by a committee of independent experts appointed by the Dutch Ministry of
Finance. In the context of this recovery framework most claims have been settled, however ING is still involved in
several legal proceedings in the Netherlands with respect to interest rate derivatives that were sold to clients in
connection with floating interest rate loans in order to hedge the interest rate risk of the loans. These
proceedings are based on several legal grounds, depending on the facts and circumstances of each specific case,
inter alia alleged breach of duty of care, insufficient information provided to the clients on the product and its
risks and other elements related to the interest rate derivatives that were sold to clients. In some cases, the court
has ruled in favour of the claimants and awarded damages, annulled the interest rate derivative or ordered
repayment of certain amounts to the claimants. In one case, the business client filed an appeal in cassation with
the Dutch Supreme Court in January 2024. In December 2024, the Supreme Court rejected such appeal. As there
are only two lawsuits still pending, we do not expect that these cases will have a significant impact in the future.
Interest surcharges claims: ING received complaints and was involved in litigation with certain individuals in
the Netherlands regarding increases in interest surcharges with respect to several credit products, including
but not limited to commercial property. ING has reviewed the relevant product portfolio. The provision
previously taken has been reversed for certain of these complaints. All claims are dealt with individually.
Thus far, the courts have ruled in favour of ING in each case, ruling that ING was allowed to increase the
interest surcharge based upon the essential obligations in the contract. In a relevant case the Dutch
Supreme Court ruled in favour of another Dutch bank, addressing the question whether or not a bank is
allowed to increase interest surcharges unilaterally. The Dutch Supreme Court ruled affirmatively and
referred the case to the Court of Appeal in The Hague. The Court of Appeal also ruled in favour of the Dutch
bank in October 2022 and this ruling has been confirmed by the Dutch Supreme Court in its ruling of 22
December 2023. ING will continue to deal with all claims individually. In the last pending case against ING,
the claimant filed an appeal in cassation with the Dutch Supreme Court in April 2024. The Supreme Court
rejected the appeal in cassation in February 2025. There are no other lawsuits related to client surcharges on
the Euribor rates of so-called Euroflex loans. We therefore do not expect that this issue will have a significant
impact in the future.
Mortgage expenses claims: ING Spain has received claims and is involved in procedures with customers
regarding reimbursement of expenses associated with the formalisation of mortgages. In most first instance
court proceedings the expense clause of the relevant mortgage contract has been declared null and ING Spain
has been ordered to reimburse all or part of the applicable expenses. Since 2018, the Spanish Supreme Court
and the European Court of Justice (\"CJEU\") have issued rulings setting out which party should bear notary,
registration, agency, and stamp duty costs. In January 2021, the Spanish Supreme Court ruled that valuation
costs of mortgages, signed prior to 16 June 2019, the date the new mortgage law entered into force, should
be borne by the bank. Media attention for the statute of limitations applicable to the right to claim
reimbursement of costs resulted in an increased number of claims at the beginning of 2021. In June 2021, the
Spanish Supreme Court published a press release stating its decision to ask the CJEU for a preliminary ruling
regarding the criteria that should be applied to determine the date from which the action for claiming the
reimbursement of mortgage expenses is considered to be expired. In January 2024, the CJEU ruled that the
limitation period for the judicial claim for reimbursement of expenses cannot begin to run from a Supreme
Court decision declaring the clause null and void, nor from the moment of the payment of the expenses. The
CJEU indicated that it is up to national case-law to determine the criterion that should be applied for the
calculation of the limitation period. In April 2024, the CJEU ruled that it was not against European Union laws
that the period of prescription began to be calculated from the moment the clause was declared null.
Following the CJEU approach, on 14 June 2024 the Spanish Supreme Court issued its final decision stating in
short that the 5-year period to claim the reimbursement of costs can only begin from the date each individual
clause is declared null by a judge. The Spanish Supreme Court also leaves a small door open for banks in case
they can demonstrate that a specific individual indeed had knowledge of the unfairness of the clause before
that moment. ING is reviewing the best way to address the latest developments.
ING Spain was also included, together with other Spanish banks, in three class actions filed by customer
associations. In one of the class actions an agreement was reached with the association. In another class
action the association withdrew from the proceedings. With respect to the third class action, ING filed an
appeal asking the Spanish Court of Appeal to determine that the ruling of the court of first instance is only
applicable to the consumers that were part of the case. The National Court has revoked the ruling and
declared that the consumers will not be able to initiate an action for compensation based on the first
instance ruling, as the claimant association intended. This last decision is not yet final, as it has been
appealed in the Supreme Court.
A provision has been established in the past and has been adjusted where appropriate.
Imtech claims: In January 2018, ING Bank received a claim from Stichting ImtechClaim.nl and Imtech
Shareholders Action Group B.V. on behalf of certain (former) shareholders of Imtech. In March 2018, ING Bank
received another claim on the same subject matter from the Dutch Association of Stockholders (Vereniging
van Effectenbezitters, \u201cVEB\u201d). In 2022, these claimants reiterated and further substantiated their claim in a
letter to ING. Each of the claimants allege inter alia that shareholders they represent were misled by the
prospectus of the rights issues of Imtech in July 2013 and October 2014. Underwriters, including ING are held
liable by these claimants for the damages that shareholders would have suffered. ING responded to these
claimants denying any and all responsibility in relation to the allegations made in the relevant letters. In
March 2024, Imtech trustees, VEB and other parties entered into a settlement agreement that contained a
release for claims regarding this subject matter. This release, by way of third-party clause, applies to ING as
well. The other claimants (one of which is now dissolved) are not party to this agreement and at this
moment it is not possible to assess whether the remaining claims would lead to any court case and what the
outcome of such court cases would be.
Claims regarding mortgage loans in Swiss franc in Poland: ING Poland is a defendant in several lawsuits
with retail customers who took out mortgage loans indexed to the Swiss franc. Such customers have alleged
that the mortgage loan contract contains abusive clauses. One element that the court is expected to
consider in determining whether such contracts contain abusive clauses is whether the rules to determine
the exchange rate used for the conversion of the loan from Polish zloty to Swiss franc are unambiguous and
verifiable. In December 2020, the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (PFSA) proposed that lenders offer
borrowers voluntary out-of-court settlements on foreign-currency mortgage disputes, with mortgages
indexed to Swiss franc serving as a reference point. In February 2021, ING Poland announced its support for
this initiative and in October 2021 began offering the settlements to the borrowers following the PFSA\u2019s
proposal. In October 2022, a hearing of the European Court of Justice (\"CJEU\") was held inter alia on the
question whether, after cancellation of a contract regarding a Swiss franc loan by a court, banks may still
charge interests for the amount borrowed under such loan prior to cancellation.
In June 2023 the CJEU issued a ruling. It ruled that under EU law when a loan agreement indexed to the
Swiss franc is declared null and void, banks cannot claim any remuneration (i.e. interest) for the duration the
principal amount was available to the customer. The customer, however, may assert claims against banks in
addition to reimbursement of interest and instalments previously paid to the bank. In September and
December 2023, the CJEU issued rulings providing further clarity on the limitation period and about the
question of when a contract clause can be considered unfair. In April 2024, the Polish Supreme Court issued a
ruling stating that if it is impossible to establish a binding foreign currency exchange rate for the parties in
the indexed or denominated loan agreement, the agreement is also not binding in other respects. ING has
recorded a portfolio provision. In October and November 2024, seven new preliminary questions were
referred to the CJEU which focus on the claims of banks in a situation of annulment of a credit agreement.
Certain Consumer Credit Products: In October 2021, ING announced that it would offer compensation to its
Dutch retail customers in connection with certain revolving consumer loans with variable interest rates that
allegedly did not sufficiently follow market rates. This announcement was made in response to several
rulings by the Dutch Institute for Financial Disputes (Kifid) regarding similar products at other banks. ING has
recognized a provision of EUR 180 million in 2021 for compensation and costs in connection with this matter.
On 22 December 2021, ING announced that it reached an agreement with the Dutch Consumers\u2019 Association
(Consumentenbond) on the compensation methodology for revolving credits. Based on a Kifid ruling
regarding similar products, ING has amended its previously announced compensation scheme by also
compensating interest on interest. In the third quarter of 2022, ING increased its provision for this matter by
EUR 75 million. In the fourth quarter of 2022, ING and the Dutch Consumers\u2019 Association reached an
agreement on the compensation of customers who have had an overdraft facility or a revolving credit card
with a variable interest rate. ING has started compensating such customers in line with Kifid rulings about
revolving credits including \u2018interest-on-interest\u2019-effect in these cases. Timelines for compensation vary
depending on customer and product segmentation and are dependent on the availability of data. In 2024
the compensation process was expedited. The compensation process is still ongoing.
Climate litigation: In January 2024, Friends of the Earth Netherlands (Milieudefensie) announced that it
holds ING liable for alleged contribution to climate change and threatens to initiate legal proceedings against
ING. In January 2025, Milieudefensie sent a new letter in which it reiterated its threat to initiate legal
proceedings against ING, but revised its demands. If necessary, ING will defend its science-based climate
approach in court.
Russian claims: Several ING entities have received claims from, and are involved in litigation with, certain
Russia-linked entities. They claim the payment of principal or interest or other amounts that they have not
received pursuant to sanctions. Claims are also made related to the settlement of contracts that have been
terminated after sanctions were imposed. In at least one case, the claimant seized assets in Russia of ING
entities. We do not agree with these claims, as they do not comply with the underlying contracts or
applicable laws, including sanctions. We follow IFRS rules for taking legal provisions and would disclose
material amounts in that regard if and when applicable which currently is not the case.

40\u00a0 Contingent liabilities and commitments
In the normal course of business, ING Group is party to activities where risks are not reflected in whole or in
part in the consolidated financial statements. In response to the needs of its customers, the Group offers
financial products related to loans. These products include traditional off-balance sheet credit-related
financial instruments.

Guarantees relate both to credit and non-credit substitute guarantees. Credit substitute guarantees are
guarantees given by ING Group in respect of credit granted to customers by a third party. Many of them are
expected to expire without being drawn on and therefore do not necessarily represent future cash outflows.
Irrevocable letters of credit mainly secure payments to third parties for a customer\u2019s foreign and domestic
trade transactions in order to finance a shipment of goods. ING Group\u2019s credit risk in these transactions is
limited since these transactions are collateralised by the commodity shipped and are of a short duration.
Irrevocable facilities mainly constitute unused portions of irrevocable credit facilities granted to corporate
clients. Many of these facilities are for a fixed duration and bear interest at a floating rate. ING Group\u2019s credit
risk and interest rate risk in these transactions is limited. The unused portion of irrevocable credit facilities is
partly secured by customers\u2019 assets or counter-guarantees by the central governments and other public
sector entities under the regulatory requirements. Irrevocable facilities also include commitments made to
purchase securities to be issued by governments and private issuers.
As at 31 December 2024, ING Groep N.V. guarantees various US dollar debentures (that mature on 2026 and
2036) which were issued by a subsidiary of Voya Financial Inc. In accordance with the Shareholder\u2019s
agreement, the net exposure of ING Groep N.V. as at 31 December 2024 and as at 31 December 2023 was
nil, as the outstanding principal amount of the US dollar debentures was fully covered with collateral of EUR
219 million (2023: EUR 205 million) pledged by Voya Financial Inc.
In addition to the items included in contingent liabilities, ING Group has issued certain guarantees as a
participant in collective arrangements of national banking funds and as a participant in required collective
guarantee schemes which apply in different countries.
ING Bank N.V. provided a guarantee to the German Deposit Guarantee Fund (\u2018Einlagensicherungsfonds\u2019 or
ESF) under section 5 (10) of the by-laws of this fund, where ING Bank N.V. indemnifies the Association of
German Banks Berlin against any losses it might incur as result of actions taken with respect to ING
Germany. The ESF is a voluntary collective guarantee scheme for retail savings and deposits in excess of EUR
100,000.
ING uses Irrevocable Payment Commitments (IPCs) for a part of its contributions to the Single Resolution
Fund (SRF). ING Group has EUR 346 million of IPCs outstanding to the SRF as at 31 December 2024 (31
December 2023: EUR 346 million). No IPCs were provided to the SRF during 2024 (2023: EUR 63 million). No
IPCs were called by the SRF in 2024 (2023: nil). Cash collateral provided to the SRF is equal to the outstanding
amount of IPCs.
ING also uses IPCs for a part of its contributions to the Deposit Guarantee Scheme in Germany. Contingent
liabilities for such outstanding IPCs amount to EUR 309 million as at 31 December 2024 (31 December 2023:
EUR 273 million). Of these, EUR 35 million of IPCs were provided to the DGS during 2024 (2023: EUR 36
million). No IPCs were called by the DGS in 2024 (2023: nil). ING posted government bonds as collateral for
the total nominal amount of EUR 336 million as at 31 December 2024 (31 December 2023: EUR 319 million).
Furthermore we refer to Note 41 'Legal proceedings' for any contingent liabilities in respect of legal
proceedings.

43\u00a0 Principal subsidiaries, investments in associates and joint ventures
For the majority of ING\u2019s principal subsidiaries, ING Groep N.V. has control because it either directly or
indirectly owns more than half of the voting power. For subsidiaries in which the interest held is below 50%,
control exists based on the combination of ING\u2019s financial interest and its rights from other contractual
arrangements which result in control over the operating and financial policies of the entity.
For each of the subsidiaries listed, the voting rights held equal the proportion of ownership interest, and
consolidation by ING is based on the majority of ownership.
For the principal investments in associates and joint ventures ING Group has significant influence but not
control. Significant influence generally results from a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting
rights, but also the ability to participate in the financial and operating policies through situations including,
but not limited to one or more of the following:
\u2022 Representation on the board of directors;
\u2022 Participation in the policymaking process; and

44\u00a0 Structured entities
ING Group\u2019s activities involve transactions with various structured entities (SE) in the normal course of its
business. A structured entity is an entity that has been designed so that voting or similar rights are not the
dominant factor in deciding who controls the entity, such as when any voting rights relate to administrative
tasks only and the relevant activities are directed by means of contractual arrangements. ING Group\u2019s
involvement in these entities varies and includes both debt financing and equity financing of these entities
as well as other relationships. Based on its accounting policies, ING establishes whether these involvements
result in no significant influence, significant influence, joint control or control over the structured entity.
The structured entities over which ING can exercise control are consolidated. ING may provide support to
these consolidated structured entities as and when appropriate. However, this is fully reflected in the
consolidated financial statements of ING Group as all assets and liabilities of these entities are included and
off-balance sheet commitments are disclosed.
ING\u2019s activities involving structured entities are explained below in the following categories:
1. Consolidated ING originated securitisation programmes;
2. Consolidated ING originated Covered bond programme (CBC);
3. Consolidated ING sponsored Securitisation programme (Mont Blanc);
4. Unconsolidated Securitisation programme; and
5. Other structured entities.
1. Consolidated ING originated securitisation programmes
ING Group enters into liquidity management securitisation programmes in order to obtain funding and
improve liquidity. Within the programme ING Group sells ING-originated assets to a structured entity. The
underlying exposures include residential mortgages and SME loans in the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Italy,
Australia and Germany.
The structured entity issues securitised notes (traditional securitisations) which are eligible collateral for
central bank liquidity purposes. In most programmes ING Group acts as investor of the securitised notes. ING
Group continues to consolidate these structured entities if it is deemed to control the entities.
The structured entity issues securitisation notes in two or more tranches, of which the senior tranche obtains
a high rating (AAA or AA) by a rating agency. The retained tranche can subsequently be used by ING Group
as collateral in the money market for secured borrowings.
ING Group originated various securitisations, and as at 31\u00a0December 2024, these consisted of EUR 74 billion
(2023: EUR 67 billion) of senior and subordinated notes, of which EUR 4 billion (2023: EUR 2 billion) were
issued externally. The underlying exposures are residential mortgages and SME loans. Apart from the third
party funding, these securitisations did not impact ING Group\u2019s Consolidated statement of financial position
and profit or loss.
In 2024, there are no non-controlling interests as part of the securitisation structured entities that are
significant to ING Group.
2. Consolidated ING originated covered bond programme (CBC)
ING Group has entered into a covered bond programme. Under the covered bond programme, ING issues
bonds. The payment of interest and principal is guaranteed by the ING administered structured entities, ING
Covered Bond Company B.V., ING SB Covered Bond Company B.V. and ING SB2 Covered Bond Company B.V.\u00a0
In order for these entities to fulfil their guarantee, ING legally transfers mainly Dutch mortgage loans
originated by ING. Furthermore, ING offers protection against deterioration of the mortgage loans. The
entities are consolidated by ING Group.

For the covered bond programme, third-party investors in securities issued by the structured entity have
recourse to the assets of the entity and to the assets of ING Group.
3. Consolidated ING sponsored Securitisation programme (Mont Blanc)
In the normal course of business, ING Group structures financing transactions for its clients by assisting them
in obtaining sources of liquidity by selling the clients\u2019 receivables or other financial assets to a Special
Purpose Vehicle (SPV). The senior positions in these transactions may be funded by the ING administered
multi-seller Asset Backed Commercial Paper (ABCP) conduit Mont Blanc Capital Corp. (rated A-1/P-1). Mont
Blanc Capital Corp. funds itself externally in the ABCP markets.
ING Group facilitates these transactions by acting as administrative agent, swap counterparty and liquidity
provider to Mont Blanc Capital Corp. ING Group also provides support facilities (i.e. liquidity) backing the
transactions funded by the conduit. The types of asset currently in the Mont Blanc conduit include trade
receivables, consumer finance receivables, car leases and residential mortgages.
ING Group supports the ABCP programmes by providing Mont Blanc Capital Corp. with short-term liquidity
facilities. Once drawn these facilities bear normal credit risk. The liquidity facilities provided to Mont Blanc are
EUR 3,119 million (2023: EUR 2,268 million). The drawn liquidity amount is nil as at 31\u00a0December 2024 (2023:
nil).
The standby liquidity facilities are reported under irrevocable facilities. All facilities, which vary in risk profile,
are granted to the Mont Blanc Capital Corp. subject to normal ING Group credit and liquidity risk analysis
procedures. The fees received for services provided and for facilities are charged subject to market
conditions.
4. Unconsolidated Securitisation programme
In 2013 ING transferred financial assets (mortgage loans) for an amount of EUR 2 billion to a special purpose
vehicle (SPV). The transaction resulted in full derecognition of the financial assets from ING\u2019s statement of
financial position. Following this transfer ING continues to have two types of ongoing involvement in the
transferred assets: as counterparty to the SPE of a non-standard interest rate swap, which is recognised as a
non-trading derivative, and as servicer of the transferred assets. ING has an option to unwind the transaction
by redeeming all notes at their principal outstanding amount, in the unlikely event of changes in accounting
and/or regulatory requirements that significantly impact the transaction. The fair value of the swap held by
ING at 31\u00a0December 2024 amounted to EUR -11\u00a0million (2023: EUR -26\u00a0million); fair value changes on this
swap recognised in the statement of profit or loss in 2024 were EUR 14 million (2023: EUR 14 million). Service
fee income recognised, for the role as administrative agent, in the statement of profit or loss in 2024
amounted to EUR 1 million (2023: EUR 1 million). The cumulative income recognised in profit or loss since
derecognition amounts to EUR 20 million (2023: EUR 19 million).
5. Other structured entities
In the normal course of business, ING Group enters into transactions with structured entities as counterparty.
Predominantly in its structured finance operations, ING can be instrumental in facilitating the creation of
these structured entity counterparties. These entities are generally not included in the consolidated financial
statements of ING Group, as ING facilitates these transactions as administrative agent by providing
structuring, accounting, funding, lending, and operation services.
ING Group offers various investment fund products to its clients. ING Group does not invest in these
investment funds for its own account nor acts as the fund manager.

ING Group\u2019s activities involve transactions with various structured entities (SE) in the normal course of its
business. A structured entity is an entity that has been designed so that voting or similar rights are not the
dominant factor in deciding who controls the entity, such as when any voting rights relate to administrative
tasks only and the relevant activities are directed by means of contractual arrangements. ING Group\u2019s
involvement in these entities varies and includes both debt financing and equity financing of these entities
as well as other relationships. Based on its accounting policies, ING establishes whether these involvements
result in no significant influence, significant influence, joint control or control over the structured entity.
The structured entities over which ING can exercise control are consolidated. ING may provide support to
these consolidated structured entities as and when appropriate. However, this is fully reflected in the
consolidated financial statements of ING Group as all assets and liabilities of these entities are included and
off-balance sheet commitments are disclosed.

4. Unconsolidated Securitisation programme
In 2013 ING transferred financial assets (mortgage loans) for an amount of EUR 2 billion to a special purpose
vehicle (SPV). The transaction resulted in full derecognition of the financial assets from ING\u2019s statement of
financial position. Following this transfer ING continues to have two types of ongoing involvement in the
transferred assets: as counterparty to the SPE of a non-standard interest rate swap, which is recognised as a
non-trading derivative, and as servicer of the transferred assets. ING has an option to unwind the transaction
by redeeming all notes at their principal outstanding amount, in the unlikely event of changes in accounting
and/or regulatory requirements that significantly impact the transaction. The fair value of the swap held by
ING at 31\u00a0December 2024 amounted to EUR -11\u00a0million (2023: EUR -26\u00a0million); fair value changes on this
swap recognised in the statement of profit or loss in 2024 were EUR 14 million (2023: EUR 14 million). Service
fee income recognised, for the role as administrative agent, in the statement of profit or loss in 2024
amounted to EUR 1 million (2023: EUR 1 million). The cumulative income recognised in profit or loss since
derecognition amounts to EUR 20 million (2023: EUR 19 million).

45\u00a0 Related parties
In the normal course of business, ING Group enters into various transactions with related parties. Parties are
considered to be related if one party has the ability to control or exercise significant influence over the other
party in making financial or operating decisions. Related parties of ING Group include, among others, its
associates, joint ventures, key management personnel, and various defined benefit and contribution plans.
For post-employment benefit plans, reference is made to Note 32 'Pensions and other post-employment
benefits'. Transactions between related parties include rendering or receiving of services, leases, transfers
under finance arrangements and provisions of guarantees or collateral. All transactions with related parties
took place at conditions customary in the market. There are no significant provisions for doubtful debts or
individually significant bad debt expenses recognised on outstanding balances with related parties.

46\u00a0 Capital management
Capital management strategy
Group Treasury (GT) is responsible for maintaining the adequate capitalisation of ING Group and ING Bank
entities to manage the risk associated with ING\u2019s business activities. This involves not only managing,
planning and allocating capital within ING Group, ING Bank and its various entities, but also executing
necessary capital market transactions, term (capital) funding and risk management transactions. ING takes
an integrated approach to assess the adequacy of its capital position in relation to its risk profile and
operating environment. This means GT takes into account both regulatory and internal, economic-based
metrics and requirements as well as the interests of key stakeholders, such as customers, shareholders and
rating agencies.
ING applies the following main capital definitions:
\u2022 Common equity Tier 1 capital (CET1) is defined as shareholders\u2019 equity less regulatory adjustments. CET1
capital divided by risk-weighted assets equals the CET1 ratio.
\u2022 Tier 1 capital is defined as CET1 capital plus Additional Tier 1 (hybrid) securities and other regulatory
adjustments. Tier 1 capital divided by risk-weighted assets equals the Tier 1 capital ratio.
\u2022 Total capital is Tier 1 capital plus subordinated Tier 2 liabilities and regulatory adjustments. Total capital
divided by risk-weighted assets equals the Total capital ratio.
\u2022 ING\u2019s fully loaded CET1 ratio target is built on the CET1 requirements specified for ING, potential increase
in the regulatory requirement of the countercyclical buffer, the potential impact of a standardised and
pre-determined stress scenario and available mitigating actions, and general uncertainties.
\u2022 Leverage ratio (LR) is defined as Tier 1 capital divided by the leverage exposure.
\u2022 Minimum Required Eligible Liabilities (MREL)/ Total Loss Absorbing Capacity (TLAC) is Total capital plus
senior unsecured bonds and amortisations. MREL/ TLAC ratios are based on both risk-weighted assets and
leverage exposure.
Dividend and distribution policy
ING\u2019s distribution policy is a pay-out ratio of 50% of resilient net profit. Resilient net profit is defined as net
profit adjusted for significant items not linked to the normal course of business. The 50% pay-out may be in
the form of cash, or a combination of cash and share repurchases, with the majority in cash. Additional
distributions to be considered periodically, taking into account alternative opportunities, macro-economic
circumstances and the outcome of our capital planning. Prerequisite for a distribution is a CET1 ratio of at
least prevailing Maximum Distributable Amount (MDA) level after distribution.
For further information on dividend and other distributions, reference is made to Note \u2018Dividend per share\u2019
and Note \u2018Equity\u2019.

Regulatory requirements
Capital adequacy and the determination of required regulatory capital are based on the guidelines
developed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (the Basel Committee) and the European Union
Directives, as implemented by the Dutch Central Bank and the ECB for supervisory purposes. In 2010, the
Basel Committee issued new solvency and liquidity requirements that superseded Basel II, implemented in
the European Union (EU) via Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR) / Capital Requirements Directive (CRD). In
accordance with the CRR the minimum Pillar 1 capital requirements applicable to ING Group are: a CET1 ratio
of 4.5%, a Tier 1 ratio of 6.0% and a Total capital ratio of 8.0% of risk-weighted assets.
The overall SREP CET1 requirement (including buffer requirements) for ING Group at a consolidated level
decreased during 2024, mainly due to a reduction of the O-SII (other systemically important institutions)
buffer requirement and was 10.76% at the end of December 2024. This requirement is the sum of a 4.5%
Pillar I requirement, a 0.93% Pillar II requirement, a 2.5% capital conservation buffer (CCB), a 0.83%
countercyclical buffer (CCyB) and a 2.0% O-SII (Other Systemically Important Institutions) buffer that is set
separately for Dutch systemic banks by the Dutch Central Bank (De Nederlandsche Bank). This requirement
excludes the Pillar II guidance, which is not disclosed. ING met the externally imposed regulatory capital
requirements in 2024.
ING\u2019s fully loaded CET1 requirement stood at 10.88% in 4Q2024 (4Q2023: 10.76%), which is higher than the
prevailing CET1 ratio requirement as a result of countercyclical buffers that will become effective over the
coming quarters.
The MDA trigger level stood at 10.76% in 4Q2024 for CET1, 12.57% for Tier 1 Capital and 14.98% for Total
capital. These MDA levels are in line with the application of Art.104a in CRD V, which allows ING to partly fulfil
the total Pillar II requirement (1.65%) with Additional Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital. An MDA requirement on the
leverage ratio of 3.5% applies to ING Group. In the event that ING Group breaches an MDA level, ING may
face restrictions on dividend payments, coupons on AT1 securities and payment of variable remuneration.

47\u00a0 Subsequent events
On January 28, 2025 ING announced that it has reached an agreement on the sale of its business in Russia
to Global Development JSC, a Russian company owned by a Moscow-based financial investor with a
background in factoring services. This transaction will effectively end ING\u2019s activities in the Russian market.
Under the terms of the agreement, Global Development will acquire all shares of ING Bank (Eurasia) JSC,
taking over all Russian onshore activities and staff. Global Development intends to continue to serve
customers in Russia under a new brand. The transaction, which has been preceded by extensive due
diligence, is subject to various regulatory approvals and is expected to be closed in the third quarter of 2025.
ING has taken on no new business with Russian companies, has scaled down operations and has taken
actions to separate the business from ING\u2019s networks and systems.
ING estimates a negative impact to the Result on disposal of Group companies of EUR 0.7 billion post tax.
This includes an estimated book loss of EUR 0.4 billion, representing the expected difference between the
sale price and the book value of the business. It also includes an estimated negative impact of EUR 0.3 billion
from recycling the currency translation adjustment net of the Net Investment hedge reserve through P&L,
that is currently booked in equity for past changes of the value of ING Bank (Eurasia) JSC as a result of
changes in exchange rates.
On 2 March 2025, ING agreed with a minority shareholder to acquire their 17.6% stake in Van Lanschot
Kempen N.V. Per the agreement, ING has directly acquired 7.2% with the remainder of the transaction
subject to regulatory approval. Together with ING\u2019s existing stake of 2.7%, ING is expected to hold a total of
20.3% after completion of the transaction.

proceedings' of the consolidated financial statements.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfEventsAfterReportingPeriodExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:549300NYKK9MWM7GGW15", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "fn-1": { "value": "
