The transaction is part of ING’s earlier announced process to divest ING’s insurance and investment management businesses. The process to divest the remaining insurance and investment management businesses in Asia is on-going and any further announcements will be made if and when appropriate.
ING said that the transaction does not affect ING Bank’s 13.7% stake in Bank of Beijing, nor does it affect ING’s Commercial Banking activities in China.
ING’s Chinese life insurance joint venture was established in 2002 and now operates eight branches in seven provinces and municipalities in China. It offers savings and protection products to families in China through an agency network and through bank branches.
The transaction, which is subject to regulatory approval, is not expected to have a material impact on ING Group results.
