Story link: Ludo Wijngaarden retires from ING

Yesterday ING announced that Ludo Wijngaarden, who presently chairs the Dutch Intermediary Division, is to retire from the post on 1 August of this year.

Wijngaarden has been with the firm for 19 years, and will also step down from his position as a board member of various ING companies.

In 1988 he was manager of human resources and organisation at NMB Bank.

After that, Wijngaarden held a number of positions within ING including being made Bank Slaski Poland’s vice chairman and chairman of the Dutch Retail Division.

It is four years since he was made chairman of the division, and during the course of his tenure he has led the division to an improved standard of operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.

The firm has begun to scout for a suitable successor.
