ING Groep N.V. disclosed a shareholder distribution programme of up to €1.9 bn. The plan includes a €250 million cash payment on 14 Jan 2027 and a €1.65 billion share‑buyback that starts on 29 Oct 2026 and runs until 26 Apr 2027. The European Central Bank approved the programme and ING said the return of capital is intended to keep its CET1 ratio around 13 %.
Why it matters
The cash payout and buyback will return capital to shareholders and reduce the number of shares outstanding, which could support the stock price. Maintaining the CET1 ratio near 13 % helps ING meet regulatory capital requirements.
