Van Lanschot agrees to interest rate derivatives recovery framework
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
's-Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands, 5 July 2016
Van Lanschot has agreed to abide by the Netherlands' general recovery framework
for interest rate derivatives clients, implying that it will offer courtesy
payments. To pay for this, it expects to make additional provisions of ?7
million to ?9 million in the second quarter, which combined with previous
provisions are expected to make up a total amount of approximately ?11 million.
Up until 2013, Van Lanschot sold interest rate derivatives to its commercial
clients as an alternative to fixed-rate loans, as part of its corporate lending.
Both in terms of clients and interest rate swaps, the numbers were relatively
small; and arrangements were typically customised, with only 'plain vanilla'
interest rate swaps and interest rate caps sold to fit in with the loans
supplied. Van Lanschot has agreed to the recovery framework to promote efficient
handling of the derivatives issue for SME clients in the Netherlands.
As of 2014, Van Lanschot stopped selling new interest rate derivatives.
