ING Groep N.V. vs peers
AI and technology compared

Last updated Oct 20, 2026 · 8 peers · 107 sources cited

How does ING Groep N.V. compare with its peers on AI and technology?

ING scores 65.2 on this site's AI disclosure reference score, #53 of 140 banks and ninth in its nine-bank peer group: behind Commonwealth Bank of Australia (88.2), Lloyds (83.6), Deutsche Bank (78.9), BBVA (77.2), NatWest (75.1), Société Générale (72.7), BNP Paribas (72) and Santander (71.3). The score measures what is on the record, not capability; ING ranks third in the group on disclosed numbers but eighth on use cases in production, own primary disclosures and recent moves. Three things separate it from named peers. First, conversion: ING says more than 90% of its generative-AI pilots reach production (March 2026), and its chatbot handled 75% of chats without a human in 2025, up from 46% in 2023; NatWest's Cora resolved half of 12.9 million conversations without human help in 2025. Second, a workforce number: ING expects about 1,250 fewer Operations FTEs in 2026, among others in KYC, inside about EUR 350 million of cost efficiencies; Santander and BNP Paribas have set no AI-linked headcount figure. Third, agentic payments and mortgages: a live end-to-end agentic payment with Worldline and Mastercard (June 2026), a Visa Payment Passkeys test in Germany (July) and an agentic mortgage assistant that cuts complex Dutch cases from seven days to five. Where ING trails: it puts no value on AI, while Commonwealth Bank measures about A$200 million of gross AI benefits for FY26 and Lloyds about £50 million for 2025, and it has no chief AI officer.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]

Where does ING lead its peers on AI?

01

More than 90% of pilots reach production

ING's March 2026 investor deck says more than 90% of its (gen)AI pilots moved into production, inside a deliberately narrow set of five priority domains on one platform. BNP Paribas counts more than 800 use cases in place and Santander more than 1,000 data and AI initiatives, without a conversion rate.[1][11][12]

02

A published AI workforce effect

ING expects about 1,250 fewer Operations FTEs in 2026, among others in KYC, and filed an estimate of about 950 Dutch positions at risk by end-2026 in October 2025. Santander has set no AI-linked job target, and Deutsche Bank's 2026 efficiencies are not attributed to AI.[1][13][3][14]

03

Agentic payments on both card networks, plus the rulebook

ING ran a live end-to-end agentic payment with Worldline and Mastercard in June 2026 and a Visa Payment Passkeys test in Germany in July, then co-authored principles for agentic commerce with ASB, Bank of America, Capital One, Commonwealth Bank and NatWest in September. Santander's Mastercard and Visa pilots ran in March 2026.[5][6][15][16][17]

04

Agentic mortgages in production

ING's CEO says it was the first bank in Europe to roll out agentic mortgages: piloted in the Netherlands in March 2026 and scaled from June, with a human making the final decision, cutting complex cases from seven to five days. NatWest's homebuying agent is on its roadmap beyond 2026.[18][7][19]

Where does ING trail its peers on AI?

01

Last in its peer group on disclosure

ING's 65.2 is the lowest score in its nine-bank group; it ranks eighth of nine on use cases in production, own primary disclosures and dated moves in the last 12 months. Commonwealth Bank leads the group at 88.2 and ranked fourth globally on Evident's 2025 AI index.[20][8]

02

No AI value figure

ING reports cost efficiencies and FTE reductions but no AI value. Commonwealth Bank measured about A$200 million of gross AI benefits in FY26, Lloyds about £50 million from generative AI in 2025, BNP Paribas about EUR 600 million to date and Santander EUR 84 million in the first half of 2026.[1][8][9][4][21]

03

No firm-wide colleague AI figure

ING says Microsoft 365 Copilot and engineering copilots are being rolled out but gives no reach figure. BBVA reports about 100,000 employees using ChatGPT Enterprise, Santander AI access for all 185,000 employees and Commonwealth Bank about 80% of staff actively engaging with AI platforms.[7][22][23][8]

Where does ING rank against its peers on AI disclosure?

Scores from reference score: the AI-index formula applied to all 140 profiles (0–100; 45% of the weight on independent coverage). The index measures what each bank has put on the public record and what outside outlets have reported about its AI, not capability or spending; every count is of entries on that bank's profile, each of which cites its sources.

How much customer service does ING automate with AI compared with its peers?

Each bank's own measure; definitions differ (chats without a human, conversations resolved end to end, interactions handled by AI).

How do ING's agentic payment pilots compare with its peers'?

Pilots and controlled tests; none of these banks reports agentic payment volumes.

BBVAFirst European bank in the Poppy personal agent protocolSierra AI, Meta13 October 2026[85]

How does ING's centralized AI model compare with its peers'?

ING runs AI as one programme: a single cloud-based data, analytics and AI platform on which it builds most of its AI and all of its generative and agentic AI, about 600 AI staff (around 300 in a hub in Türkiye), about 3,000 data and analytics staff under a chief analytics officer, and five board-chosen priority domains. Google is the main technology partner, and a central AI Risk Committee set up in 2025 oversees new domains such as voicebots and agentic AI. No chief AI officer is named.[60][7][10][61]

Peers spread their bets more widely. BBVA gives ChatGPT Enterprise to all 120,000 employees and Gemini alongside it and created a top-level AI Transformation area in May 2026; Santander uses Microsoft, OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and G42; Commonwealth Bank works with OpenAI, Anthropic, in which it holds a stake carried at A$1,527 million, and AWS. BNP Paribas, like ING, governs through committees rather than a named AI chief.[40][46][23][20][66]

Which banks are ING's peers, and why these?

ING Groep N.V. is compared here with BNP Paribas SA, Banco Santander, Deutsche Bank, BBVA, Société Générale, NatWest Group plc, Lloyds Banking Group and Commonwealth Bank of Australia: chosen by the editors for this page (see the note below the table). ING Groep N.V. is classed as a regional or retail-commercial bank headquartered in Netherlands.

The computed group mixed ING with Asian and Canadian banks (DBS, OCBC, TD, BMO) that share none of its markets, so this page keeps BBVA, Lloyds, NatWest and Commonwealth Bank (ING's rival in Australia and co-author of its agentic-commerce principles) and adds the euro-area universal banks it meets in Belgium, Germany, Spain and Poland (BNP Paribas, Santander, Deutsche Bank, Société Générale).

Is ING better than BNP Paribas at AI?

The record cannot settle capability. On disclosure, BNP Paribas scores 72 on this site's reference score and ING 65.2. BNP reports about EUR 600 million of AI value to date and more than 800 use cases in place; ING reports that more than 90% of its pilots reach production and gives a workforce number, about 1,250 fewer Operations FTEs in 2026.[4][11][1]

How does ING's chatbot compare with other banks' assistants?

ING's GenAI chatbot handled 75% of chats without a human in 2025, up from 46% in 2023, and more than 80% in four of its seven chatbot countries. Commonwealth Bank resolves 86% of virtual-messaging conversations end to end; NatWest's Cora handled half of its 12.9 million 2025 conversations without a human.[1][27][2]

Is ING cutting jobs because of AI?

Partly, and it says so. ING's March 2026 investor deck expects about 1,250 fewer Operations FTEs in 2026, among others in KYC and associated activities, and in October 2025 ING filed an estimate of about 950 Dutch positions at risk by end-2026. Group headcount fell by more than 1% over the 12 months to June 2026.[1][13][107]

Which AI partner does ING use?

Google. CEO Steven van Rijswijk said on 23 September 2026 that Google is ING's main technology partner, whose VISTA data layer lets it use Google's models for processing and client-interaction use cases; its chief analytics officer says ING uses Gemini Enterprise. Microsoft 365 Copilot and engineering copilots are also being rolled out.[7][10]

Was ING first in Europe with agentic payments?

ING, Worldline and Mastercard described their 2 June 2026 concert-ticket purchase as Europe's first end-to-end agentic payment transaction. Santander and Mastercard had described a live agent-executed payment through Santander's infrastructure on 2 March 2026, in a controlled environment, as Europe's first. Both are pilots.[5][16]

Why does ING rank low on this site's AI index?

The score counts what is on the record. ING ranks eighth of nine in its peer group on use cases in production, own primary disclosures and recent moves, and has no named AI leader comparable to peers' chief AI officers; it ranks third on disclosed numbers, such as its pilot-to-production rate and FTE effect.[1][10]

How does ING compare with Commonwealth Bank on AI?

They compete in Australia and co-authored the September 2026 agentic-commerce principles. Commonwealth Bank scores 88.2 on this site's reference score against ING's 65.2, measures about A$200 million of gross AI benefits for FY26 and holds a stake in Anthropic; ING publishes a pilot-to-production rate above 90% and a workforce effect.[15][8][20][1]
