ING to sell remaining shares in NN Group
NOT FOR PUBLICATION, RELEASE OR DISTRIBUTION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES,
AUSTRALIA, CANADA, JAPAN OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH IT WOULD BE UNLAWFUL TO DO SO.
ING announced today its intention to sell its remaining 45.7 million ordinary shares in NN Group. The ordinary shares will be sold by way of an accelerated book building offering to institutional investors.
Following a successful completion of the transaction, ING Group will have fully divested its stake in NN Group. The sale of ING's 14.1% stake is the final transaction in ING's programme to divest all of its insurance and investment management businesses as part of the restructuring agreement with the European Commission as amended in November 2012. ING previously announced to sell its remaining stake in NN Group before the end of 2016.
The offer price will be determined at the conclusion of the book building process and will be announced in a separate press release. The book is open with immediate effect and is expected to close ultimately by 17:30 CET on 15 April 2016, although ING Group reserves the right to close the book before then at short notice. The transaction is expected to settle on 19 April 2016.
Credit Suisse, ING Bank, JP Morgan and UBS are acting as Joint Global Coordinators for the offering.
