ING publishes 2014 Integrated Annual Report
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
ING today published the 2014 Annual Report of ING Groep N.V. and ING Bank N.V..
For the first time, the Annual Report of ING Groep N.V. is an integrated report,
combining the financial and non-financial performance in 2014.
ING's role as a financial institution is to support and encourage economic,
social and environmental progress. ING's purpose - empowering people to stay a
step ahead in life and in business - is reflected in ING's structure, strategy
and in the values and behaviours we embrace. By disclosing and explaining both
ING's economic performance, as well as ING's impact on society and the
environment in one integrated report, ING aims to provide a clear account of how
it creates value in the context of our role in society.
ING today also published the 2014 Annual Review, which provides in an attractive
and informative format information from the Annual Report and gives an
comprehensive overview of our businesses and ING's overall strategy supported by
several case studies.
While material sustainability information is now included in the relevant
chapters in the integrated Annual Report, thereby replacing the former
separately published Sustainability Report, for specific stakeholder groups and
rating agencies detailed supporting non-financial data is provided in the
Sustainability Annex, which is also published today.
The Annual Report of ING Groep N.V., and the accompanying Sustainability Annex
as well as the Annual Report of ING Bank N.V and the Annual Review are available
on the ING website www.ing.com/annualreports. The printed version of the ING
Group 2014 Annual Report will be available as of 1 April 2015. Other documents
related to ING's annual General Meeting (AGM), including the agenda for the AGM,
will be available as of 27 March 2015 on the ING website www.ing.com/agm. The
AGM will be held on 11 May 2015.
ING will also file today its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended 31
December 2014 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The 2014 Form 20-F is available on the ING website www.ing.com and can be
downloaded from the SEC website (www.sec.gov) as of later today.
