      ING’s digital strategy keeps convincing, says Scope

      ING’s constant focus on innovation led to two key initiatives that will support the bank’s ‘Accelerating Think Forward’ digital strategy. ING Bank is rated AA-, with a Stable Outlook.

      In a short comment published today, Scope reviews the bank’s recently announced partnership with Scalable Capital, an automated investment advisor, and the acquisition of a majority stake in Payvision, an omnichannel payments provider.

      Both initiatives align well with ING’s digital approach and should lead to an increase in cross-selling to primary retail and business customers. Moreover, after the introduction of PSD2, ING is establishing a solid footprint in the payment services industry. According to Chiara Romano, Scope bank analyst and author of the report, ING Bank’s digital strategy remains convincing.
