Item 16F. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
While there has been no change in ING’s certifying accountant during the most recent two financial years, in the 2024 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, the shareholders of ING appointed Deloitte Accountants BV (Deloitte), as the new external audit firm for ING Group for the audit of the annual accounts for the financial years 2026 through 2029. The proposal to appoint Deloitte was the result of a thorough tender process overseen by the Audit Committee of the Supervisory Board and in accordance with ING Group’s policy on the Auditors’ Independence . The change in auditors is being made based on European and Dutch legislation. Accordingly the engagement of KPMG Accountants N.V. (KPMG), ING Group’s current auditor, cannot be renewed in respect of financial year 2026. 
The information required by Item 16F was previously reported in ING’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023.
