Royal honour for ING CEO Jan Hommen
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Jan Hommen, CEO of ING Group, has been appointed by His Majesty King Willem-
Alexander as Commander in the Order of Orange-Nassau. Jan Hommen received the
royal honour for his exceptional contribution to the continuity of ING as an
international company and for his efforts to adapt the financial sector after
the financial crisis of 2008.
The honour was presented today by Dutch Finance Minister Jeroen Dijsselbloem
during the symposium 'Fundability of The Netherlands Inc.' that was held to
mark Jan Hommen's stepping down as CEO of ING Group on 1 October 2013. Jan
Hommen's speech at the symposium can be found at www.ing.com.
Jan Hommen became a member of the Supervisory Board of ING Group in 2005 and its
chairman in 2008. In early 2009, he became CEO of ING Group and chairman of the
Executive Board. Previously, he was CFO of Alcoa and CFO and vice-chairman of
the Executive Board of Philips Electronics. On the occasion of his retirement
from Philips in 2005, he was appointed Officer in the Order of Orange-Nassau.
As of 1 October, Jan Hommen will be succeeded as CEO of ING Group by Ralph
Hamers.
