ING posts 2Q2025 net result of €1,675 million, with strong growth in lending volumes and fee income 2Q2025 profit before tax of €2,369 million with a CET1 ratio of 13.3% • Well on track to reach our targets, one year into our 'Growing the difference' strategy • Continued strong increase in mobile primary customers of over 300,000 to 14.9 million • Resilient total income, supported by higher customer balances, with particularly strong growth of our mortgage portfolio • Further growth in fee income in both Retail and Wholesale Banking, up 12% year - on - year • ING will pay an interim cash dividend of €0.35 per ordinary share CEO statement “During the second quarter of 2025, we have continued to successfully execute our strategy, which we set out one year ago, by accelerating growth, increasing impact and delivering value,” said Steven van Rijswijk, CEO of ING. “The quarter started with heightened market volatility, as well as macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, which still continue to this day. In that context, we are pleased that our customer base has shown significant growth and that our volumes have increased as we further diversified our income streams, with fees now making up almost 20% of our total income. We are well on track to reach our financial targets for 2027. “We have seen continued commercial momentum, with significant core lending growth, continued strong deposit gathering and a double - digit increase in fee income. Commercial NII declined year - on - year due to margin pressure and currency fluctuations, leaving total income stable. “In Retail Banking, we have gained over 300,000 mobile primary customers during the quarter, and 1.1 million, or 8% growth, year - on - year, with Germany, Spain, Italy, and Romania leading this growth. Net core lending growth has reached a quarterly record of €11.3 billion, including €7.2 billion in mortgages, mainly in the Netherlands, Australia and Germany, and €3.2 billion in Business Banking, driven by higher loan demand from our SME clients. We have attracted €8.9 billion in net customer deposits, partly from seasonal holiday allowances, and achieved a 12% increase year - on - year in retail fee income, primarily from higher investment activity. "In Wholesale Banking, net core lending growth was €4.1 billion, driven by strong momentum in Working Capital Solutions and in short - term trade - related financing. Demand for long - term corporate loans has remained subdued due to economic uncertainty, which impacted total income. Fee income has risen 12% year - on - year, driven by Lending, Global Capital Markets and Payments & Cash Management. “Costs have developed as expected, increasing moderately year - on - year. Prudent expense management remains a priority and the impact of inflation and investments was partly offset by efficiency measures. As part of this, we are making ongoing improvements to our KYC processes and we have announced the restructuring of our Wholesale Banking workforce, while continuing to invest in our commercial and product capabilities in both Retail and Wholesale Banking. "Risk costs were below our through - the - cycle average, reflecting the quality of our loan portfolio. Our CET1 ratio was 13.3%, including the impact of the share buyback programme, which was announced in May 2025 and is well underway. Our 4 - quarter rolling average return on equity came out at 12.7%. “We continue to find ways to support our customers on their journeys to net zero. We have increased our sustainable volume mobilised to €67.8 billion for the first half of 2025, a 19% increase compared to the first half of 2024. In the Netherlands, we have introduced a new mortgage pricing model tied to energy labels that offers lower interest rates when eligible customers improve the energy label for their homes. “We are pleased with our results during a volatile first half of 2025 . Although macroeconomic conditions remain challenging we are confident that our strategy sets us on course to become the best European bank and deliver on our targets . I want to thank our customers and clients for their continued trust in us and our employees for their continued dedication . ” Press release ING Corporate Communications Amsterdam, 31 July 2025 Investor enquiries E: investor.relations@ing.com Press enquiries T: +31 (0)20 576 5000 E: media.relations@ing.com Analyst call 31 July 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

As we grow our mortgage book, we also find ways to support and incentivise our customers to make their homes more sustainable. In Retail Banking in the Netherlands, we have launched a new mortgage pricing model which applies to all energy labels. Eligible customers benefit from an automatic interest rate reduction upon improving their home's energy label. We offer rate incentives for energy - efficient homes across five additional retail markets. In Wholesale Banking, ING has participated in the €6.3 billion project financing of two offshore wind farms in Poland, Baltyk 2 and Baltyk 3, as part of a syndicate of banks including the EIB. Furthermore, we were awarded 'World’s Best Wholesale/Transaction Bank for Sustainable Finance' by The Digital Banker. Society is transitioning to a low - carbon economy. So are our clients, and so is ING. We finance a lot of sustainable activities, but we still finance more that’s not sustainable. See how we’re progressing at ing.com/climate. We have grown our primary customer base — primary customers with a mobile interaction through our app or website — by 309,000 to a total of 14.9 million, putting us firmly on track to keep growing in line with our target of one million mobile primary customers per year. We retained the number one NPS score in 5 out of 10 retail markets, confirming our customers’ satisfaction with our services. In line with our ambition to do more business with more customers, we have launched several propositions for GenZ. In Spain, we launched a dedicated START account to support customers aged between 14 and 17 in starting their financial journeys with a tailor - made experience in the existing ING App. In Türkiye, we have launched our first GenZ investment fund which aims at increasing financial awareness among this customer group. We continue to protect and safeguard our customers by developing anti - fraud solutions and scaling these across our markets. In Spain and Belgium, we have introduced the “Check the call” function, which allows our customers to check whether a caller is in fact an ING employee or an impersonator. Following its introduction in the Netherlands, this function is now being used approximately 2,800 times a week and we’ve seen a 43% decrease in impersonation fraud cases. In the Netherlands, we have also launched a Fraud Case Tracker, available in OneApp, which enables customers who have been a victim of fraud to check the status of their open fraud case and provides transparency on the progress of their case. Furthermore, in Spain we are helping customers whose accounts have been blocked due to suspected fraud to restore their access faster by using a video call function to confirm their identity. The number of customers with investment accounts continues to grow. We attracted over 400,000 new active investment product customers year - on - year, with particularly strong growth in Germany, the Netherlands, Spain and Poland. As of June 2025, a total of 4.9 million customers had an investment account with us, with assets under management and e - brokerage totalling €254 billion. 1) Includes private individuals only 2) See our Annual Report for definition

Total income Total income in 2Q2025 was strong at €5,702 million, marking a 1.2% increase quarter - on - quarter and remaining stable compared with 2Q2024. Revenues were supported by continued growth in customer balances and fee income, as well as strong Treasury results and higher income related to our stake in Van Lanschot Kempen. This was partly offset by margin compression. We achieved another quarter of strong commercial momentum, particularly within our Retail Banking business. Net core lending growth in Retail Banking was substantial at €11.3 billion, driven primarily by sustained growth in our residential mortgage portfolio across most of our markets, as well as an increase in the business lending portfolio, notably in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Poland. Wholesale Banking also contributed €4.1 billion in net core lending growth, largely attributable to Working Capital Solutions and short - term trade - related financing. The demand for corporate loans remained subdued, as investment decisions by clients were postponed amid ongoing geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty. Net core deposits growth totalled €6.2 billion in 2Q2025, entirely driven by Retail Banking. The Netherlands, Italy, Spain, and Belgium were the main contributors, supported in part by the seasonal impact of holiday allowance payments. Wholesale Banking continued to attract deposits through successful initiatives in Payments & Cash Management and Money Markets. However, this was more than offset by lower short - term client balances in our cash pooling business, leading to a net decline of €2.7 billion in core deposits. Commercial net interest income (NII) was broadly stable quarter - on - quarter at €3,772 million. The impact of lower ECB deposit facility rates and a stronger euro (resulting in a € - 37 million FX impact) was partly offset by the repricing of customer deposits and strong volume growth. Year - on - year, commercial NII declined 3.7% due to lower lending and liability margins and FX impacts (€ - 27 million), partially offset by higher volumes. Our commercial net interest margin stood at 2.23% in 2Q2025, showing a slight decline sequentially. The average lending margin remained steady at 1.25%, while the average liability margin decreased by three basis points to 0.98%, mainly due to the full - quarter impact of the temporary bonus rates offered in Germany during the successful promotional savings campaign that ran in the first quarter. Other NII declined both year - on - year and sequentially, including a larger impact from accounting asymmetry in Financial Markets and Treasury. Moreover, other NII in 2Q2024 had included €31 million in one - off items. Consolidated Results

 

 

Net interest income (in € million) and commercial net interest margin (in %) Net fee and commission income increased 12% year - on - year, both in Retail Banking and in Wholesale Banking, in line with our strategy to diversify income. In Retail Banking, this was supported by a significant increase in investment product fees, driven by growth in the number of investment accounts and higher customer trading activity. Daily banking fees also rose, reflecting an increase in the number of primary customers and updated pricing for payment packages. The increase in fee income in Wholesale Banking was led by higher fees from Lending, Global Capital Markets, and Payments & Cash Management. Sequentially, total net fee and commission income rose 2.6% compared to the strong first quarter, with Retail Banking benefiting from higher daily banking fees and Wholesale Banking seeing a strong uplift in Lending fees due to increased deal flow. These increases were partially offset by a decline in investment product fees after market volatility had peaked. Investment income in the second quarter of 2025 amounted to €21 million and included a €12 million cash dividend from our stake in Van Lanschot Kempen (in March 2025, ING had increased its equity stake in Van Lanschot Kempen to 9.9% by acquiring an additional 7.2%). The previous quarter had included a €39 million interim dividend from our stake in the Bank of Beijing. Other income rose 17% year - on - year and 15% sequentially. This reflects strong results for Treasury and higher income from Corporate Investments, while Financial Markets posted higher income year - on - year, as we continued supporting our clients in turbulent times. Other income in 2Q2025 included a positive revaluation of the derivative for the forward purchase of a stake in Van Lanschot Kempen. The further stake increase in Van Lanschot Kempen was subject to regulatory approval. As of 24 July 2025, ING holds a 20.3% stake in Van Lanschot Kempen, after having received regulatory approval. Operating expenses Total operating expenses were €3,034 million, including €78 million of regulatory costs and €116 million of incidental cost items. Excluding regulatory costs and incidental items, expenses amounted to €2,841 million, up 4.5% year - on - year. The increase was mainly attributable to wage inflation and investments in business growth, including initiatives to further enhance the digital customer experience and the scalability of our systems within Wholesale Banking. Expenses in 2Q2024 had included a VAT refund in Corporate Line. Operating expenses (in € million) Sequentially, expenses excluding regulatory costs and incidental items were nearly flat, as higher staff expenses were offset by operational efficiencies, mainly driven by the optimisation of KYC activities and improved client interaction in contact centres. The quarter - on - quarter comparison also includes favourable currency translation effects, with the stronger euro reducing expenses denominated in foreign currencies. Regulatory costs totalled €78 million in 2Q2025, down 11% year - on - year due to lower contributions to deposit guarantee schemes. Sequentially, regulatory costs declined, as ING is required to recognise certain annual charges in full in the first quarter of the year. Incidental expense items in 2Q2025 amounted to €116 million, primarily related to restructuring provisions. This included a provision of €85 million for a restructuring of the workforce in Wholesale Banking, resulting in approximately 230 redundancies. In 2Q2024, incidental expenses had been €41 million, also largely restructuring - related. In 1Q2025, incidental expenses were €4 million, reflecting hyperinflation accounting impacts on expenses in Türkiye under IAS 29. Addition to loan loss provisions Net additions to loan loss provisions totalled €299 million in 2Q2025. This corresponds to 17 basis points of average customer lending, remaining below our through - the - cycle average of around 20 basis points. Total net additions to Stage 3 provisions in 2Q2025 amounted to €221 million, which is broadly stable quarter - on - quarter. Stage 3 risk costs this quarter primarily stemmed from collective Stage 3 provisioning across various retail markets, while individual Stage 3 risk costs declined. Addition to loan loss provisions (in € million) Consolidated Results ING Press Release 2Q2025 4

 

 

Total Stage 1 and 2 risk costs were €78 million, including a €33 million addition to reflect a deterioration in macroeconomic forecasts. Risk costs for Retail Banking amounted to €210 million (17 basis points of average customer lending), mainly from business and consumer lending, while mortgage - related risk costs remained low. Wholesale Banking recorded €89 million in risk costs (19 basis points), a notable improvement from 1Q2025, reflecting a limited inflow of newly defaulted files. Net result The net result in 2Q2025 was €1,675 million compared with €1,780 million in 2Q2024 and €1,455 million in the previous quarter. The effective tax rate was 26.7% in 2Q2025 and was positively impacted by a tax refund related to prior years. This compares to an effective tax rate of 28.5% in 2Q2024 and 28.4% in 1Q2025. Our strong performance translated into a return on equity of 13.9%. On a four - quarter rolling average basis, our return on equity came out at 12.7%. ING’s return on equity is calculated using average IFRS - EU shareholders' equity, excluding 'reserved profit not included in CET1 capital', which amounted to €1,565 million at the end of 2Q2025. This reflects 50% of the resilient net profit for the first half of 2025, 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 related to the normal course of business. As no such items were recorded, resilient net profit equalled net profit in 1H2025. Dividend In line with our distribution policy, an interim dividend over 1H2025 of €0.35 per ordinary share (stable compared with 1H2024) will be paid in cash on 11 August 2025. This represents approximately one third of the resilient net profit for 1H2025. ING Press Release 2Q2025 5 2025 outlook 1) Based on current assumptions and scenarios, total income in 2025 is expected to end at roughly the same level as it was in 2024. This will be supported by volume growth and an increase in fee income, which we now expect to be at the higher end of our previously indicated 5 - 10% range. Total operating expenses (including incidental items recorded in the first half of 2025) are projected to end at the lower end of the €12.5 - €12.7 billion range. We foresee a CET1 ratio by year - end 2025 of between 12.8 - 13.0%. And we increase the outlook for our return on equity for full year 2025 from >12.0% to ~12.5%. 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 €0.8 billion post tax. 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 loans and advances to banks and customer lending. Loans and advances to banks rose by €14 billion, largely reflecting higher reverse repo activity. Customer lending increased by €6 billion as strong volume growth, particularly in Retail Banking, was partly offset by currency impacts. Financial assets at fair value through P&L and financial assets at fair value through OCI each rose by €2 billion. These increases were largely offset by a €19 billion decline in cash and balances with central banks. Shareholders’ equity Shareholders’ equity decreased by €2,561 million in 2Q2025, reflecting the final dividend payment over 2024 of €2,152 million and the €2,000 million share buyback, which was announced on 2 May 2025 and is expected to end no later than 27 October 2025. This decrease was partly offset by the €1,675 million net result recorded in 2Q2025.

Customer deposits rose by €4 billion, with continued inflows in Retail Banking, partially offset by currency impacts and a reduction in short - term client balances in Wholesale Banking’s cash pooling business. Shareholders’ equity per share was €16.48 on 30 June 2025 compared with €16.94 on 31 March 2025. Consolidated Balance Sheet

This decrease mainly reflects the €2.0 billion deduction from capital for the ongoing share buyback programme (as announced on 2 May 2025). This was partially offset by the inclusion of €0.8 billion from the quarterly net profit after dividend reserving and a decline in risk - weighted assets. The development of the Tier 1 ratio mirrors the trend in the CET1 ratio. The total capital ratio declined less than the CET1 ratio, as the reduction in Tier 1 capital was partly offset by the issuance of a €1.25 billion Green Tier 2 bond. The leverage ratio decreased from 4.5% to 4.3% due to an increase in total assets in combination with lower Tier 1 capital. Risk - weighted assets (RWA) Total RWA decreased by €1.4 billion in 2Q2025. ING Group: Composition of RWA 31 Mar. 2025 30 Jun. 2025 in € billion 275.8 276.8 Credit RWA 43.1 43.1 Operational RWA 18.3 15.9 Market RWA 337.2 335.8 Total RWA Excluding a € - 4.2 billion FX impact, credit RWA increased by €5.2 billion in 2Q2025. This was driven by €6.4 billion of business growth, partly offset by the impact of model updates and a change in the profile of the loan book. Operational RWA remained flat, while market RWA decreased by €2.4 billion due to hedging and FX activities. Distribution ING has reserved €837 million of the 2Q2025 net profit for distribution. Resilient net profit in 2Q2025, which is defined as net profit adjusted for significant items not linked to the normal course of business, was equal to net profit and amounted to €1,675 million. In line with our distribution policy, an interim dividend over 1 H 2025 of € 0 . 35 per share will be paid on 11 August 2025 . This represents approximately one third of the resilient net profit for 1 H 2025 . On 2 May 2025, ING announced the start of a share buyback programme, under which it plans to repurchase shares of ING Group for a maximum total amount of €2.0 billion. The programme is expected to end no later than 27 October 2025. The whole amount has already been deducted from CET1 capital. At the end of 2Q2025, 40.2 million shares for a total consideration of €738 million had already been repurchased. CET1 requirement ING targets a CET1 ratio of around 12.5%, which is comfortably above the prevailing CET1 ratio requirement (including buffer requirements) of 10.74%. This requirement declined slightly compared with 1Q2025 (10.76%) due to a lower countercyclical buffer requirement. ING’s fully loaded CET1 requirement was 10.86% at the end of 2Q2025, also two basis points lower versus 1Q2025. Capital, Liquidity and Funding

 

 

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) at the end of 2Q2025 was 29.06% of RWA and 7.32% of leverage exposure. The MREL capacity decreased in 2Q2025 due to a decline in total capital and the loss of MREL eligibility for two HoldCo Senior instruments. The decrease in MREL capacity is reflected in a lower surplus based on both leverage exposure and RWA. The prevailing TLAC requirements (including buffer requirements) are 23.31% of RWA and 6.75% of leverage exposure. In July 2025, the DNB notified ING of the new MREL requirement. ING’s MREL requirement was reduced to 27.93% of RWA and 7.24% of leverage exposure, effective immediately.

Credit risk management Total credit outstandings declined in 2Q2025 following a decrease in cash and balances with central banks (reflected in Treasury), as well as in Wholesale Banking Lending (partly explained by currency movements). This was partially offset by a continued increase in residential mortgages and business lending. Stage 2 credit outstandings declined, primarily in residential mortgages in the rest of the world (due to a shift of exposures to Stage 1) and in Wholesale Banking Lending (reflecting improvements in the watchlist portfolio). This was partially offset by an increase in residential mortgages in the Netherlands, triggered by model refinements. The stock of provisions decreased slightly due to lower Stage 3 provisions. The Stage 3 coverage ratio rose to 34.1% from 33.7% in the previous quarter. The 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 continued to deliver strong growth in 2Q2025. The number of mobile primary customers increased by 309,000, and there was sustained growth in customer balances and fee income. Net core lending growth was significant during this quarter, reaching €11.3 billion. The majority of this expansion — €7.2 billion — was driven by residential mortgages, particularly in the Netherlands, Australia, and Germany. Additional progress was made in expanding our business and consumer lending portfolios. Net core deposits growth was €8.9 billion, with the Netherlands and Italy contributing the most. This growth was partly supported by seasonal inflows related to holiday allowance payments during the quarter. Commercial net interest income edged higher quarter - on - quarter, supported by increased lending and deposit volumes. This more than offset a modest decline in savings margins due to temporary promotional rates, while average lending margins remained stable. Year - on - year, commercial net interest income declined, reflecting the normalisation of liability margins. Other net interest income increased compared with 2Q2024, which had included a € - 39 million impact from the Polish mortgage moratorium. Sequentially, other net interest income declined due to Treasury, which was more than offset by a rise in other income. Fee income increased versus the already strong first quarter, which had benefited from very high investment product fees amid heightened customer trading activity in volatile markets. Slightly lower fee income from investment products was more than offset by growth in daily banking and lending fees. Compared with 2Q2024, fee income rose 12%, primarily driven by higher contributions from investment products and daily banking. This reflects the positive impact of a growing number of primary customers and investment account holders, alongside growth in assets under management and higher package fees. Operating expenses, excluding regulatory costs, declined slightly year - on - year. The effects of CLA increases, salary indexation, and ongoing investments in business growth were offset by lower restructuring and legal provisions. Sequentially, expenses excluding regulatory costs remained flat, supported by reduced third - party staff costs and a stronger euro. Risk costs amounted to €210 million, equivalent to 17 basis points of average customer lending. These net additions were primarily related to business and consumer lending, while mortgage - related risk costs remained low. Segment Reporting: Retail Banking

Retail Netherlands Commercial net interest income rose both year - on - year and sequentially, driven by strong volume growth. This was complemented by an increased liability margin compared with 1Q2025. The combined contribution from other net interest income and other income — both primarily linked to Treasury — remained broadly stable. Fee income increased year - on - year, driven by higher fees for daily banking services and a rise in assets under management. Sequentially, the increase in fee income was largely attributable to daily banking. Net core lending growth was again strong at €4.1 billion. This growth was driven by a further increase in mortgages combined with an expansion of the business lending and consumer lending portfolios. Net core deposits growth was €5.1 billion, including a seasonal impact of holiday allowance payments. Expenses included €14 million in incidental restructuring costs. Adjusted for this and also excluding regulatory costs, expenses declined 3.0% year - on - year and were flat sequentially, mainly due to savings on external staffing and a decline in FTEs this quarter. No regulatory costs were recorded in the first half of 2025, as no contribution to the deposit guarantee scheme was required. Risk costs totalled €51 million in 2Q2025, equivalent to 12 basis points of average customer lending. Retail Belgium (including Luxembourg) Commercial net interest income remained broadly stable quarter - on - quarter across both lending and liability products. Year - on - year, commercial net interest income declined due to a lower liability margin, which had narrowed during the second half of 2024. Other net interest income from Treasury declined year - on - year, although this was largely offset by an increase in other income. Fee income rose year - on - year but declined sequentially as the prior quarter had included higher entrance fees for investment products following a successful campaign in 4Q2024. Net core lending growth was €1.8 billion, with business lending contributing €1.5 billion (mainly reflecting higher balances for one large client) and residential mortgages €0.3 billion. Net core deposits growth amounted to €1.0 billion, benefiting from a seasonal inflow related to holiday allowances. Expenses included €8 million of restructuring costs compared with €34 million recorded in 2Q2024. Expenses excluding regulatory costs and these one - off items declined both year - on - year and sequentially, as the effects of automatic salary indexation were more than offset by reductions in FTEs and savings on IT and accommodation expenses. No regulatory costs were recorded this quarter. By contrast, 2Q2024 had included a positive adjustment to the costs for the deposit guarantee scheme (DGS), while the previous quarter reflected contributions to the DGS and the Belgian bank tax. Risk costs amounted to €36 million in 2Q2025, primarily related to consumer and business lending, and were equal to 15 basis points of average customer lending.

Retail Germany Commercial net interest income decreased year - on - year and sequentially, mainly due to the full - quarter impact of the temporary bonus rates offered during the successful promotional savings campaign that ran in the first quarter. The year - on - year decline in other net interest income and other income was attributable to Treasury. Fee income increased significantly year - on - year, supported by growth in the customer base, higher fees from daily banking services, and a higher number of investment product trades. Sequentially, fee income declined, reflecting a slowdown in investment trading activity following an exceptionally strong previous quarter. Net core lending growth in 2Q2025 was €1.8 billion, with mortgages remaining the key driver of growth. Core deposits (excluding Treasury deposits) experienced a modest decline, following the substantial inflows recorded in the first quarter. Expenses excluding regulatory costs increased year - on - year, mainly due to annual salary increases, coupled with investments in business growth and scalability. Sequentially, expenses excluding regulatory costs declined, as the previous quarter had included a €10 million legal provision, €6 million in restructuring costs and higher customer acquisition expenses to support the aforementioned campaign. Risk costs amounted to €42 million, predominantly related to consumer lending, and were 15 basis points of average customer lending. Retail Other Commercial net interest income increased both year - on - year and sequentially, supported by sustained growth in lending and deposit volumes. This was partially offset by foreign exchange impacts as the euro strengthened against other currencies in 2Q2025. Other net interest income declined sequentially — offset by a corresponding rise in other income — but improved year - on - year, as 2Q2024 had included a € - 39 million impact from the Polish mortgage moratorium. Fee income rose 18% year - on - year, driven by daily banking and investment products. In daily banking, this was supported by an increase in the number of primary customers and transaction volumes. The uplift in investment product fees was driven by net inflows and an increase in trading activity. Sequentially, fee income edged down slightly due to foreign exchange impacts. Net core lending growth reached a record €3.7 billion in 2Q2025. This was led by a €2.9 billion increase in the mortgage portfolio — primarily in Australia, Poland, Spain, and Italy — alongside continued growth in business and consumer lending. Net core deposits growth amounted to €3.9 billion, largely reflecting strong net inflows in Italy following a successful savings campaign, and in Spain, where seasonal holiday allowance payments contributed positively. Expenses excluding regulatory costs declined year - on - year as 2Q2024 had included a €35 million legal provision. Adjusted for this, expenses increased both year - on - year and sequentially, reflecting inflationary pressures and investments in future business growth, partially offset by foreign exchange movements. Risk costs amounted to €81 million (27 basis points of average customer lending), with net additions primarily in Poland and Spain. Segment Reporting: Retail Banking

Amid the ECB’s rate cuts and ongoing geopolitical uncertainty, as well as currency volatility, Wholesale Banking income held up well this quarter. Fee income increased significantly, both year - on - year and sequentially, reflecting our strategic focus on diversifying our income profile. Commercial net interest income declined, mainly due to margin compression in Payments & Cash Management (PCM). Our disciplined capital management, along with lower risk costs, helped maintain a stable return on equity quarter - on - quarter of 10.5%. This quarter’s results were impacted by a total of €90 million in restructuring costs, including a provision of €85 million for a restructuring of the workforce, resulting in 230 redundancies. These organisational changes are aimed at making our teams fit for the future. In contrast, 2Q2024 had benefited from a €23 million release of a provision in operating expenses and €50 million in one - off income items. Expenses, excluding regulatory costs and incidental costs, rose 2.2% sequentially. Year - on - year, the increase was higher due to wage inflation and investments in business growth, including multi - year initiatives to further enhance the digital customer experience and the scalability of our systems. Risk costs declined significantly, both year - on - year and sequentially, with a limited inflow of newly defaulted files. Net core lending growth in the quarter was €4.1 billion, driven by strong momentum in Working Capital Solutions and in short - term trade - related financing. Long - term corporate loan volumes declined, reflecting delayed investment decisions by clients amid ongoing market uncertainty, as well as our continued focus on optimising capital allocation. We continued to attract deposits through successful initiatives in PCM and Money Markets. However, this was more than offset by lower short - term client balances in our cash pooling business, leading to a net decline of €2.7 billion in core deposits. Lending income remained relatively stable quarter - on - quarter, as strong fee income (up 22% compared with 1Q2025) helped mitigate the adverse FX impact. The higher deal flow that led to the rise in fee income demonstrates the relevance of our advisory capabilities. Year - on - year, a more cautious investment climate and margin pressure, as well as negative currency effects, impacted interest income. Income from Daily Banking & Trade Finance decreased year - on - year, as volume growth across all products and higher fee income was more than offset by lower interest margins in PCM. Sequentially, income declined due to margin compression in PCM and softer results in Trade & Commodity Finance due to lower oil prices, while 1Q2025 had included stronger results from our cash pooling business. Financial Markets posted higher income year - on - year, as we continued to support our clients in turbulent times (as also reflected in higher issuance activity in Global Capital Markets), while in trading, we capitalised on increased market volatility, particularly in Forex. Sequentially, income declined from the seasonally high first quarter. Segment Reporting: Wholesale Banking

In March 2025, ING had increased its equity stake in Van Lanschot Kempen to 9.9%, by acquiring an additional 7.2%. The transaction also included a further stake increase, which was subject to regulatory approval. As of 24 July 2025, ING holds a 20.3% stake in Van Lanschot Kempen, after having received regulatory approval. The results from this stake are recorded in Corporate Line. Total income in Corporate Line increased significantly, both year - on - year and sequentially, supported by higher income from foreign currency ratio hedging and from our stake in Van Lanschot Kempen (reflecting a positive revaluation of the derivative for the forward purchase of a stake in Van Lanschot Kempen, as well as a €12 million dividend). In comparison, income in 1Q2025 had included a €39 million interim dividend from our stake in the Bank of Beijing. Operating expenses increased slightly versus the previous quarter due to restructuring costs and were higher than in 2 Q 2024 , which had benefited from a VAT refund .
