In 2022, ING Bank announced plans to beef up manpower in its Manila operations to focus on wholesale banking and double down on sustainability-related initiatives.

The bank has identified the Asia-Pacific region as a market with a potential for revenue diversification.

In the Philippines, ING Bank is often tapped as an advisor in mergers and acquisition, capital markets and various other sectors like energy, technology and telecommunications.
