ING new partner within AKA's group of shareholders


With ING, AKA has gained another shareholder who relies on AKA's competence and many years of expertise in Trade Finance. ING-DiBa AG has acquired a five percent stake in AKA.

AKA has been working successfully with many shareholder banks since 1952. AKA's close relationship, integrity and trustful cooperation are the essential foundations for its role as an enabler in the financing and administrative processing of international Export and Trade transactions. This broad base is now being strengthened even further: AKA is working alongside another shareholder who is very well established in the European market and has a wide-ranging network around the globe. ING is a bank that has recently changed its brand name from ING-DiBa AG to ING in order to underline its internationality. AKA and its shareholders see themselves as enablers in meeting the needs of their partners and customers, and are now continuing along this path in the Export Finance market together with ING.
The acquisition and supervisory board membership are still subject to the fulfillment of the last closing conditions.
