“Digital innovation for us primarily means helping clients make better financial decisions in their daily lives, with ease, overview and control. Clients expect the basics to be in order. A well-designed app, immediate insight into their wealth and easy access to relevant information.”
"},"title":"What does digital innovation mean within ING Private Banking?"},{"componentType":"paragraph","richBody":{"value":"“At ING Private Banking it is always both: digital and personal. Digitally, through the ING app and Mijn ING, we offer solid solutions that help clients maintain overview and control at any time. Especially when dealing with more complex questions or unexpected life events, contact with our Relationship Managers and Financial Planners remains essential. Our expertise and experience deepen the conversation, while digital tools guide and support that conversation with the right insights.”
"},"title":"How does digital innovation contribute to personal attention and tailored solutions?"},{"componentType":"paragraph","richBody":{"value":"“Plan Vooruit is one of ING Private Banking’s wealth planning tools, available in the ING app and on Mijn ING. With Plan Vooruit, clients gain insight into their total wealth and how it may develop over time. After a personal conversation with the Relationship Manager, clients have insight into their total wealth, both private and business-related, via the app and Mijn ING. Clients can make adjustments themselves, such as adding life goals or events and exploring different scenarios. For example, you can see the impact of transferring a business, retiring earlier, or purchasing a home or real estate.
As a Private Banking client, you can make use of Plan Vooruit. Your Relationship Manager can activate the tool for you in the ING app and Mijn ING after a personal conversation.”
"},"title":"Last year, the digital wealth planning tool Plan Vooruit was introduced. What can clients use it for?"},{"componentType":"paragraph","richBody":{"value":"“Our client conversations made it very clear that clients want more control over their financial future. Not only during a conversation, but also at moments they choose themselves: at home, in peace and quiet, with up-to-date and coherent insight. That need calls for more than traditional reports; it requires smart, accessible and reliable digital solutions.
Digital innovation is a core strength of ING. We have been investing in this for many years. With Plan Vooruit, we bring this digital strength together in one powerful solution that gives clients insight into their total private and business wealth. A tool that helps them understand financial interdependencies and makes the impact of important life choices visible. Always up to date, clear and available when it suits them.
By making optimal use of our digital innovation strength, we support clients in a structured and future-oriented way.”
"},"title":"What was the reason for developing Plan Vooruit for Private Banking?"},{"componentType":"paragraph","richBody":{"value":"“Plan Vooruit has been specifically developed for Private Banking clients. They often have a more complex financial situation, where private wealth and business interests come together. We help bring those worlds together. Plan Vooruit ensures that wealth, goals and choices are made understandable and transparent. That insight provides confidence and structure and helps clients stay focused on long-term goals, even in turbulent times.”
"},"title":"Who is Plan Vooruit intended for, and where does it really make a difference?"},{"componentType":"paragraph","richBody":{"value":"“Many entrepreneurial clients recognise the moment when private and business matters increasingly start to overlap. At the kitchen table, the question then arises: what does my financial future actually look like? A wealth plan helps create that overview. It makes your life goals clear and helps you steer more effectively, so that your wealth can work for you and for future generations. Plan Vooruit is part of that. During a personal conversation with your Relationship Manager, you go deeper to explore which steps are needed to achieve your goals.
That first insight brings peace of mind and direction. So my advice is: start with a conversation with your Relationship Manager and make that initial exploration, even if you do not yet know exactly what you want.”
