That leaves EUR 65.18 million of the announced maximum value, making capital return the clearest near-term company-specific market theme.

Three buyback milestones

ING repurchased 1.45 million shares for EUR 45.07 million during the week ended October 2, 2026, as reported by ING. On September 17, 2026, the bank announced the planned redemption of USD 1.50 billion in perpetual additional tier one securities on November 16, 2026, according to ING. The current buyback update on October 13, 2026 completed the three-month sequence with 2.30 million shares repurchased.

ING's second-quarter 2026 net income was EUR 1.95 billion, down 21 percent from the prior-year quarter, while revenue was EUR 6.01 billion, down 7.20 percent, according to Simply Wall St. The comparison gives the October buyback a useful earnings backdrop: capital distribution is advancing while the latest reported profit and revenue were lower year over year.

Upcoming dates and stock level

ING is scheduled to report third-quarter 2026 results on October 29, 2026, before the market opens, according to Gekko. The November 16, 2026 redemption date is stated in ING's investor materials.
