ING posts 1Q2025 net result of €1,455 million, with strong growth in customer balances and fee income 1Q2025 profit before tax of €2,124 million with a CET1 ratio of 13.6% • Strong increase in fee income, driven especially by an increase in investment products • Total income was resilient, supported by an excellent growth in deposits and a continued increase in mortgage volumes, as well as strong results in Financial Markets • Operating expenses excluding regulatory costs slightly lower quarter - on - quarter • We continue to move our capital towards our target level and announce a €2.0 billion share buyback CEO statement “While the geopolitical and macroeconomic circumstances remain uncertain, we believe there is an opportunity for Europe to collectively drive competitiveness and resilience through simplification of regulations and investments in infrastructure, technology and defence,” said Steven van Rijswijk, CEO of ING Group. "As one of the largest and most geographically diversified European banks, we are well - positioned to play a key role in supporting this growth while navigating volatility. During these times, we are staying particularly close to our clients to understand their concerns and banking needs. Our scale, strong performance and robust capital ratios enable us to provide our customers with the support required to manage uncertainties, mitigate risks and capture opportunities. "During the first quarter of 2025, we have delivered continued commercial growth, driven by excellent growth in deposits and higher mortgage volumes. Total income has increased, supported by resilient commercial net interest income and a strong increase in fee income. Expenses have decreased slightly quarter - on - quarter and the increase year - on - year was in line with our guidance, reflecting the impact of inflation and client acquisition expenses. Risk costs were €313 million and below our through - the - cycle - average, reflecting the quality of our loan portfolio. “In Retail Banking, our mobile primary customer base has grown by 174,000 customers this quarter, mainly attributable to Germany, the Netherlands, Spain and Poland. We have attracted €17 billion in retail core deposits, primarily in Germany. And we have increased core lending by €9 billion, of which €6 billion is in residential mortgages, particularly in the Netherlands and Germany, and nearly €2 billion in Business Banking. Across our markets, we have seen 125,000 mortgage applications during this quarter, up 20% year - on - year. Retail fee income has risen 18% year - on - year, primarily driven by growth in the number of investment product customers, higher assets under management and an increase in customer trading activity. “In Wholesale Banking, total income was stable, with strong results in Financial Markets as we have supported our clients during the turbulent market conditions. This turbulence has also led to muted lending volumes. Fee income in Wholesale Banking has increased quarter - on - quarter, mainly driven by higher fees from Global Capital Markets and Trade Finance. Moreover, we have continued to invest in front office growth, our digital customer experience and the scalability of our systems. “We continue to support clients in their sustainability transition by launching innovative services or by entering into partnerships. In Wholesale Banking, we have increased sustainable volume mobilised to €30 billion, a 23% increase versus last year. In Spain, we have launched a service that helps retail customers get insights into their CO2e emissions and provides tips on how to reduce their environmental footprint. In Australia, ING has become the first bank to participate in a new digital energy ratings programme that provides our customers with free energy ratings of their homes and identifies potential sustainability improvements. "We continue to converge our CET1 ratio to our target level while taking the ongoing geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty into account. In that light, today we announce a share buyback programme of €2.0 billion. “We’re pleased with our first - quarter performance and are confident in our ability to deliver value to our stakeholders in the current macroeconomic turbulence . We are well on track to meet our 2027 targets and I would like to thank our employees across the world for their contributions to these strong results and their commitment to serving our customers . ” Press release ING Corporate Communications Amsterdam, 2 May 2025 Investor enquiries E: investor.relations@ing.com Press enquiries T: +31 (0)20 576 5000 E: media.relations@ing.com Analyst call 2 May 2025 at 9:00 am CET +31 20 708 5074 (NL) +44 330 551 0202 (UK) (Registration required via invitation) Live audio webcast at www.ing.com

Net core deposits growth represents customer deposits adjusted for currency impacts, Treasury and run - off portfolios. 5) Commercial net interest margin reflects commercial NII as percentage of average customer lending excluding Financial Markets and Treasury. 6) Annualised net result divided by average IFRS - EU shareholders' equity excluding reserved profits not included in CET1 capital. Total income Total income in 1Q2025 was a strong €5,637 million, an increase of 4.3% quarter - on - quarter and up 1.0% compared with 1Q2024. Our revenues were supported by record growth in customer balances and higher fee income. In the first quarter of 2025, net core lending growth was €6.8 billion. In Retail Banking, our core lending book grew by €8.6 billion. This was particularly driven by a further expansion of our mortgage portfolio across most of our markets. Net core lending in Wholesale Banking declined by €1.8 billion, mainly due to seasonal volatility in balances for Working Capital Solutions. Volumes in Wholesale Banking Lending declined slightly, reflecting delayed investment decisions by our clients given the current volatile circumstances and our continued efforts to optimise our capital usage. Net core deposits growth was €22.6 billion, our highest quarterly growth ever. Retail Banking accounted for €17.0 billion of this, supported by a strong inflow in Germany after a promotional savings campaign. Net core deposits growth in Wholesale Banking was €5.6 billion, mainly reflecting higher short - term client balances in our cash pooling business, which can be more volatile. Commercial net interest income (NII) amounted to €3,794 million in 1Q2025, a decrease of 2.6% year - on - year as the favourable impact of volume growth was more than offset by a normalising liability margin. Sequentially, commercial NII increased 1.2%, entirely in liability NII, where the impact of lower ECB deposit facility rates was more than offset by adjustments to the savings rates, volume growth and a structural shift from 'other NII' to liability NII in Wholesale Banking related to our cash pooling and netting services. Lending NII was broadly stable versus 4Q2024 as the increase in average balances was offset by slightly lower margins, reflecting a continued mix shift towards high ROE mortgages and the impact of having two fewer days in the quarter. Our commercial net interest margin came out at 2.26% in 1Q2025 and was stable quarter - on - quarter. The average lending margin declined to 1.25% from 1.28% in 4Q2024, while the average liability margin rose by one basis point to 1.01%. Other NII, which mainly includes Financial Markets and Treasury, decreased due to the aforementioned shift to commercial NII coupled with a larger impact from accounting asymmetry, which was more than offset in other income. Consolidated Results

 

 

Net interest income (in € million) and net interest margin (in %) Total net fee and commission income rose 9.6% year - on - year and 9.3% sequentially to €1,094 million. This was driven by a very strong increase in fee income for Retail Banking, which was up 18% year - on - year and 12% sequentially. Especially fee income from investment products increased significantly. This primarily reflects growth in the number of customers for investment products and in the average number of brokerage trades per customer. Fee income for Wholesale Banking declined year - on - year due to a lower deal closure in Lending. Sequentially, this was more than compensated by higher fees from Global Capital Markets and Trade Finance. Investment income amounted to €27 million compared with €8 million in 1Q2024 and € - 63 million in 4Q2024. The first quarter of 2025 included a €39 million interim dividend from our stake in the Bank of Beijing. Other income rose 19% year - on - year and 13% sequentially, mainly due to increased client activity and favourable market conditions in Financial Markets, coupled with a higher impact from accounting asymmetry (largely offset in 'other NII'). 1Q2024 had included a €53 million receivable related to a prior insolvency of a financial institution in the Netherlands. Operating expenses Total operating expenses were €3,200 million, including €361 million of regulatory costs and €4 million of incidental cost items. Expenses excluding regulatory costs and incidental items amounted to €2,835 million and rose 6.2% year - on - year, mainly attributable to the impact of inflation on staff expenses. It also reflects our continued investments in business growth over the last twelve months, including growth in our front office and investments to enhance the digital customer experience and the scalability of our systems in Wholesale Banking. Sequentially, expenses excluding regulatory costs and incidental items decreased 1.6%, mainly due to lower client acquisition expenses. Operating expenses (in € million) Regulatory costs were €361 million and are seasonally higher in the first quarter of the year. This reflects the accounting requirement to recognise certain annual charges in full in the first quarter, such as the contributions to the Belgian deposit guarantee scheme (DGS) and the Belgian bank tax (whereas the annual Dutch bank tax is recorded in the fourth quarter). Year - on - year, regulatory costs were broadly stable. They increased in Belgium, where the total amount of covered deposits under the DGS rose in 2024 following the maturity of government - issued bonds in September 2024. At the same time, regulatory costs in the Netherlands declined as no DGS contribution was required in 1Q2025. Incidental expense items in 1Q2025 amounted to €4 million, equal to the amount in 1Q2024 and reflecting hyperinflation accounting impacts on expenses in Türkiye (due to the accounting requirements of IAS 29). The fourth quarter of 2024 had €109 million of incidental expense items, the majority of which was related to restructuring costs. Addition to loan loss provisions Net additions to loan loss provisions amounted to €313 million. This is equivalent to 18 basis points of average customer lending, and below our through - the - cycle average of around 20 basis points. ING Press Release 1Q2025 4 Total net additions to Stage 3 provisions in 1Q2025 were €215 million, which is significantly down from the previous quarter. Stage 3 risk costs in this quarter were mainly related to collective Stage 3 provisioning in the consumer lending and business lending portfolios of Retail Banking, spread across various markets. Individual Stage 3 risk costs sharply declined quarter - on - quarter due to a lower inflow as well as repayments and recoveries in Wholesale Banking. Total Stage 1 and 2 risk costs were €98 million, mainly reflecting an update of the macroeconomic forecasts, some model updates, as well as portfolio movements. Consolidated Results

 

 

Addition to loan loss provisions (in € million) Risk costs for Retail Banking were €175 million, or 14 basis points of average customer lending. Net additions were largely related to business and consumer lending, while risk costs for mortgages remained low. Wholesale Banking recorded €138 million of risk costs, or 29 basis points of average customer lending. Net result The net result in 1Q2025 was €1,455 million compared with €1,578 million in 1Q2024 and €1,154 million in the previous quarter. The effective tax rate was 28.4% in 1Q2025 compared with 28.5% in 1Q2024 and 30.6% in 4Q2024. In a quarter marked by seasonally high regulatory costs, our return on average IFRS - EU equity still came out at 12.0%. On a four - quarter rolling average basis, the return on average IFRS - EU equity remained high at 12.8%. ING’s return on equity is calculated using average IFRS - EU shareholders' equity after excluding 'reserved profit not included in CET1 capital', which amounted to €2,879 million at the end of 1Q2025. This includes the final cash dividend over 2024, which will be paid out in May 2025, and 50% of the resilient net profit for 1Q2025, which has been reserved for distribution in line with our policy. Return on equity ING Group (in %) Resilient net profit is defined as net profit adjusted for significant items that are not linked to the normal course of business. With the inflation rate in Türkiye gradually coming down, the impact of hyperinflation accounting is not expected to be significant anymore and will therefore no longer be excluded. This means that resilient net profit was equal to net profit in 1Q2025. ING Press Release 1Q2025 5 2025 outlook 1) Macroeconomic and geopolitical circumstances remain uncertain and, taking this into account, we now expect a CET1 ratio by year - end 2025 of between 12.8 - 13.0%, while our CET1 ratio target remains unchanged at ~12.5%. Apart from that, we reconfirm our 2025 outlook, as we remain confident in our ability to deliver value. This means that we expect total income in 2025 to end up at roughly the same level as it was in 2024, supported by volume growth and a targeted 5 - 10% increase in fee income. Total expenses are expected to increase to around €12.5 - €12.7 billion (excluding incidental items). The return on equity is expected to exceed 12% in 2025. This outlook excludes the impact of the previously announced intended sale of ING’s business in Russia to Global Development JSC, where we expect a negative P&L impact of around €0.7 billion post tax and a negative impact of around 5 basis points on ING’s CET1 ratio. It also excludes potential other incidental items and/or one - offs. Consolidated Results 1) The targets, outlook and trends discussed in this 2025 Outlook section are forward - looking statements that are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to change, including as a result of the factors described under the section entitled ‘Important Legal Information’ in this document. ING assumes no obligation to publicly update or revise these forward - looking statements, whether as a result of new information or for any other reason.

The increase on the asset side of the balance sheet was mainly visible in cash and balances with central banks, loans and advances to banks, and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, which had all been at relatively low levels at year - end 2024. Customer lending grew by €2 billion, as a strong increase in Retail Banking was largely offset by currency impacts and a decline in Wholesale Banking. Securities at amortised cost and financial assets at fair value through OCI increased by €3 billion and €1 billion respectively, predominantly reflecting investments in hiqh - quality liquid assets. On the liability side of the balance sheet, the main increase was recorded in customer deposits, which rose by €42 billion. This reflects strong growth in Retail Banking Germany and higher client balances in our cash pooling business, as well as Treasury picking up from a low level at year - end 2024. Debt securities in issue increased by €9 billion, of which €7 billion was in CD/CP for liquidity purposes. Deposits from banks increased by €4 billion.

An increase in CET1 capital due to the inclusion of €0.7 billion from the quarterly net profit after dividend reserving was mostly offset by an increase in risk - weighted assets. The impact from the implementation of Basel IV and other model updates on ING’s CET1 ratio was negligible. The Tier 1 and Total capital ratios decreased in 1Q2025, mainly due to the redemption of a $1.25 billion AT1 instrument and a €750 million Tier 2 instrument. The leverage ratio decreased from 4.7% to 4.5% due to a seasonal increase in total assets in combination with a lower Tier 1 capital. Risk - weighted assets (RWA) Total RWA increased by € 3 . 5 billion in 1 Q 2025 , which included an impact of € - 1 . 4 billion from the implementation of Basel IV and other model updates in 1 Q 2025 . This total impact of € - 1.4 billion is split into € - 9.9 billion in credit RWA (primarily Basel IV day 1 impact and other model updates), €+4.6 billion in operational RWA (following the transition from the AMA model to the SMA model) and €+3.9 billion in market RWA (mainly explained by the inclusion of FRTB CVA and its effects under CRR3).

Excluding the impact from the implementation of Basel IV, operational RWA remained flat and market RWA increased by €1.3 billion. Distribution ING has reserved €727 million of the 1Q2025 net profit for distribution. Resilient net profit in 1Q2025, which is defined as net profit adjusted for significant items not linked to the normal course of business, was €1,455 million. With the inflation rate in Türkiye gradually coming down, the impact of hyperinflation accounting is not expected to be significant anymore and will therefore no longer be excluded. This means that resilient net profit was equal to net profit in 1Q2025. The final cash dividend over 2024 of €0.71 per ordinary share was approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting on 22 April 2025 and will be paid on 2 May 2025. We continue to move our capital towards our target level and today announced the start of a share buyback programme, under which we plan to repurchase ordinary shares of ING Group for a maximum total amount of €2.0 billion. The buyback programme will have an impact of roughly 59 basis points on our CET1 ratio. The additional shareholder distribution of up to €2.5 billion, as announced on 31 October 2024, has been completed. As part of this, an amount of €500 million was distributed in cash to shareholders, for which €0.161 per share was paid on 16 January 2025. The share buyback programme was completed on 30 April 2025. A total of 125.8 million ordinary shares have been repurchased for a total consideration of €2.0 billion. CET1 requirement ING targets a CET1 ratio of around 12.5%, which is comfortably above the prevailing CET1 ratio requirement (including buffer requirements) of 10.76%. This requirement remained unchanged compared with 4Q2024. ING’s fully loaded CET1 requirement was 10.88% at the end of 1Q2025, also unchanged versus 4Q2024. Capital, Liquidity and Funding

 

 

ING Press Release 1Q2025 8 MREL and TLAC requirements Minimum Required Eligible Liabilities (MREL) and Total Loss Absorbing Capacity (TLAC) requirements apply to ING Group at the consolidated level of the resolution group. The available MREL and TLAC capacity consists of own funds and senior debt instruments issued by ING Group. ING’s MREL requirement (including buffer requirements) is 29.08% of RWA and 7.32% of leverage exposure. The MREL capacity decreased slightly in 1Q2025 due to a decline in total capital, partly offset by a net increase in HoldCo Senior instruments. In 1Q2025, ING issued multiple HoldCo Senior instruments for a total amount of approximately €6 billion, which was partly offset by redemptions and the loss of MREL eligibility of some HoldCo instruments. The decrease in MREL capacity is reflected in a lower surplus based on leverage exposure. The MREL surplus based on RWA also declined, as the decrease in MREL capacity was combined with a higher RWA.

The excellent increase of €42 billion in customer deposits (reflecting strong growth in Retail Banking Germany and higher client balances in our cash pooling business, as well as Treasury picking up from a low level at year - end 2024) was reflected in a loan - to - deposit ratio of 0.93 compared with 0.98 in 4Q2024.

Credit risk management Total credit outstandings rose in 1Q2025 following an increase in cash and balances with central banks (reflected in retail - related treasury and in Wholesale Banking Treasury & Other) as well as an increase in residential mortgages. Stage 2 credit outstandings declined. This was mainly in Wholesale Banking Lending (reflecting improvements in the watchlist portfolio) and in Dutch residential mortgages (triggered by model refinements). The stock of provisions decreased slightly following a drop in Stage 3 provisions, partially offset by an increase in Stage 2 provisions, reflecting an update of the macroeconomic forecasts and some risk migration. The Stage 3 coverage ratio declined to 33.7% from 34.0% in the previous quarter. The total loan portfolio consists predominantly of asset - based and secured loans, including residential mortgages, project - and asset - based finance, and real estate finance, with generally low loan - to - value ratios.

Retail Banking Retail Banking posted strong results in the first quarter of 2025, supported by continued commercial growth. The number of mobile primary customers rose by 174,000, and this was coupled with a significant increase in customer balances and fee income. We were particularly successful in gathering deposits this quarter. Net core deposits growth was €17.0 billion, and this was largely driven by Germany following another successful promotional campaign. Net core lending growth was €8.6 billion. This was primarily attributable to mortgage growth across most markets (most notably in the Netherlands and Germany, while we also further grew our business lending and consumer lending portfolios. The strong increase in lending and deposit volumes helped offset the pressure from decreasing rates, resulting in commercial net interest income being broadly stable compared with 4Q2024. Year - on - year, commercial net interest income declined slightly as volume growth could not entirely compensate for lower liability margins in the eurozone. Fee income was very strong and rose 18% compared with 1Q2024 and 12% sequentially. These increases were primarily driven by higher fee income for investment products, supported by growth in the number of active investment product customers and in the average number of brokerage trades per customer. In addition, fee income from daily banking and insurance products was also up on both comparable quarters. Other income rose year - on - year and sequentially and this was due to Treasury. All in all, total income grew 0.9% year - on - year and 3.6% sequentially. Expenses excluding regulatory costs increased 5.8% year - on - year, mainly reflecting CLA impact and salary indexation, as well as continued investments in business growth. Sequentially, expenses declined 1.0% when excluding regulatory costs and €31 million of incidental item costs recorded in 4Q2024. The decrease was mainly due to lower client acquisition expenses in the first quarter. Regulatory costs were €322 million and are seasonally higher in the first quarter as they include the annual contributions to the Belgian DGS and bank tax. Risk costs amounted to € 175 million and were 14 basis points of average customer lending, reflecting our continued strong asset quality . Segment Reporting: Retail Banking

Retail Netherlands Commercial net interest income held up well year - on - year, as continued growth in the mortgage portfolio and higher savings volumes compensated for a lower margin on liabilities. Sequentially, net interest income from lending was stable, while net interest income from liabilities declined. Other net interest income and other income both mainly relate to Treasury and, when combined, were relatively stable. Fee income rose year - on - year and this was mainly driven by investment products, reflecting growth in assets under management. Compared with 4Q2024, fee income declined slightly. Net core lending growth was €4.4 billion in 1Q2025, as a further increase in mortgages was coupled with an expansion of the business lending and consumer lending portfolios. Net core deposits growth was €0.2 billion, and here an increase in savings from private individuals was largely offset by a seasonal outflow in business banking as clients withdrew money for tax payments. Expenses excluding regulatory costs were stable year - on - year, as higher internal staff expenses were partly offset by lower expenses for external FTEs. Sequentially, expenses excluding regulatory costs declined by €40 million, mainly due to lower expenses for client acquisition and professional services, as well as to €11 million of incidental cost items included in 4Q2024. Regulatory costs were nil in 1Q2025 as no contribution to the DGS was required. Regulatory costs in 4Q2024 had mainly included the annual booking of the Dutch bank tax. Risk costs amounted to €21 million in 1Q2025 and were five basis points of average customer lending. Retail Belgium (including Luxembourg) Commercial net interest income declined year - on - year due to lower margins on liabilities. Sequentially, commercial net interest income was up slightly, supported by an increase in the liability margin after adjustments to the savings rates. The movements in other net interest income are largely mirrored in other income, and both are mainly Treasury - related. Fee income rose significantly year - on - year, reflecting higher fees from daily banking as well as from investment and insurance products. Sequentially, the increase was mainly driven by investment products. This reflects a net inflow and higher entrance fees after a successful campaign in 4Q2024 to attract new customers for investment products, whereas the previous quarter had included the pay - out of incentives. Net core lending remained stable in 1Q2025 as continued growth in the mortgage portfolio was fully offset by a small decline in other lending. Net core deposits declined by €0.3 billion. Expenses excluding regulatory costs were stable year - on - year as the impact of automatic salary indexation was offset by FTE reductions. Sequentially, expenses excluding regulatory costs declined, mainly due to lower expenses for client acquisition and for professional services. Regulatory costs in 1Q2025 included the contributions to the Belgian DGS (which rose year - on - year because of higher covered deposits for Belgian banks following the maturity of government - issued bonds) and the Belgian bank tax. Risk costs amounted to € 40 million in 1 Q 2025 and were largely related to an increase in collective provisions for business lending clients . Segment Reporting: Retail Banking

Retail Germany Commercial net interest income decreased year - on - year, as the favourable impact of volume growth was more than offset by a lower liability margin. Sequentially, commercial net interest income was slightly up, supported by higher volumes and adjustments to the savings rates. Fee income increased strongly both year - on - year and sequentially, fuelled by a higher number of trades in investment products, growth in the number of customers, and higher fees from daily banking. Other net interest income and other income are both mainly Treasury - related. The sum of the two was up on both comparable quarters, also because 4Q2024 had included a € - 51 million impact from client acquisition costs following a successful campaign to attract new customers. Net core lending growth in 1Q2025 was €1.5 billion, driven by mortgages and consumer lending. Net core deposits growth was €15.3 billion, reflecting a strong inflow after a promotional savings campaign. Expenses in the first quarter of 2025 included a legal provision of €10 million and €6 million of restructuring costs. Expenses excluding regulatory costs and the aforementioned items increased year - on - year, predominantly due to higher staff expenses (related to annual salary increases) and investments in business growth and scalability, but they declined versus 4Q2024. The decrease in regulatory costs compared with 1Q2024 reflects a lower contribution to DGS. Risk costs were €35 million, spread across consumer lending, mortgages and business lending. Retail Other Commercial net interest income increased year - on - year, supported by continued growth in lending and deposit volumes. Sequentially, commercial net interest income remained stable as volume growth and adjustments to the savings rates compensated for lower policy rates. Fee income rose significantly year - on - year and sequentially, driven by higher fees from daily banking and insurance, reflecting an increase in the number of customers and in cross - selling. This was combined with higher fee income from investment products, which was fuelled by net inflows and a higher number of trades. Other net interest income and other income, which are both largely Treasury - related, were broadly stable. Net core lending growth amounted to €2.8 billion in 1Q2025, mainly reflecting higher mortgage volumes in almost all countries (particularly in Spain and Australia). Net core deposits growth was €1.8 billion and largely driven by net inflows in Spain and Türkiye. Expenses excluding regulatory costs increased year - on - year due to inflationary pressure (particularly in Türkiye) and investments in further business growth. Sequentially, expenses excluding regulatory costs and €17 million of incidental restructuring costs recorded in 4Q2024 declined, mainly due to lower client acquisition expenses. Risk costs were €78 million with net additions mostly in Poland, Spain, Italy and Romania. Segment Reporting: Retail Banking

Wholesale Banking had a solid start to 2025, with total income up 6.1% quarter - on - quarter and in line with the strong performance of 1Q2024. We continued diversifying our income profile this quarter, as evidenced by higher income from Financial Markets and the growth in fee income in Daily Banking & Trade Finance, which compensated for a softer quarter in Lending. Our disciplined capital management contributed to a reduction in risk - weighted assets and an income over average risk - weighted assets ratio of 466 basis points. The return on equity was 10.5%. Expenses excluding regulatory costs rose year - on - year. This reflects the impact of collective labour agreements, inflation and investments in selective front office growth, as well as in multi - year system improvements to enhance the digital customer experience and the scalability of systems. Risk costs amounted to €138 million, or 29 basis points over average customer lending, and were largely due to Stage 2 provisions. Individual Stage 3 risk costs sharply declined quarter - on - quarter due to a lower inflow as well as repayments and recoveries. Net core lending declined by €1.8 billion, mainly due to seasonal volatility in balances for Working Capital Solutions. Volumes in Lending declined slightly, reflecting delayed investment decisions by our clients given the current volatile circumstances, as well as our continued efforts to optimise our capital usage. Net customer deposits growth was €5.6 billion; this primarily reflects higher short - term client balances in our cash pooling business. Lending income decreased 5% both year - on - year and sequentially, as fee income could not match the high level from 1Q2024 and 4Q2024, which both had included several sizeable deals. Net interest income was resilient quarter - on - quarter, taking into account that 1Q2025 had two fewer days. Income from Daily Banking & Trade Finance held up well year - on - year. Volume growth across all products, higher fee income and strong commercial momentum for our cash pooling business compensated for lower interest margins in Payments & Cash Management (PCM). Compared with 4Q2024, income rose 3%, mainly supported by higher results in Trade & Commodity Finance, while PCM income stabilised as margin compression eased during this quarter. Financial Markets income was strong, increasing 8% year - on - year with a particularly strong performance from Rates, Equity Derivatives, and Non - Linear products, which all benefited from strong client flows and favourable market conditions. Compared to the seasonally lower fourth quarter, income rose 37%, supported by increased client activity, which was especially visible in the results of Global Capital Markets, Rates and Equity Derivatives products.
