Hans Wijers, chairman of the Supervisory Board said: “I am very pleased that in Karl Guha we have found a new chairman with a long and distinguished career in the financial sector, spanning multiple phases and covering various aspects. I am confident that together with him, our Supervisory Board will continue to guide ING in delivering sustainable value for our customers and society at large.”

The proposed appointment of Karl Guha to the Supervisory Board has been approved by the European Central Bank. The full proxy materials for ING’s 2023 AGM on 24 April 2033 will be published on 10 March 2023.
