ING Bank, the largest lender in the Netherlands, plans to escalate its staff recruitment efforts in Asia to meet the growing green finance opportunities across the region, according to a senior executive at the Dutch multinational company.

“We will continue to selectively add capability in sustainable finance in Asia because that is where we are a leader in our industry,” Andrew Bester, head of wholesale banking at ING Bank, said in an interview with the South China Morning Post. “What we want is to continue to hire in the areas where we have expertise.”
