ING Group 2018 SREP process completed

ING Group has been notified of the European Central Bank (ECB) decision on the 2018 Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP), which will set the capital requirements for 2019.  The common equity Tier 1 requirement for ING Group will be 11.8% in 2019.

On 31 December 2018, ING Group's phased-in (transitional) common equity Tier 1 ratio as well as the fully-loaded common equity Tier 1 ratio were both at 14.5%, well in excess of the regulatory requirements.
