ING’s €1.6 million settlement leaves a reporting timeline in focus

ING questioned Didier Reynders about his account activity in 2018 but did not file an official report until 2023, according to NL Times. That timeline forms part of the Belgian inquiry the bank agreed to settle for €1.6 million.

The record

The reporting describes nearly €700,000 in cash deposited between 2008 and 2018 into the former European justice commissioner’s account. Investigators examined 245 cash deposits and 779 e-Lotto transfers totalling more than €1 million. The settlement concerns ING; it does not decide Reynders’s criminal liability.

Based on reporting from: NL Times.
