ING Bank, obligată de un tribunal să ofere în continuare servicii bancare gigantului rus din energie Gazprom. Decizia de la Amsterdam, valabilă până când rușii își deschid cont la o altă bancă din Europa
A Dutch court has ruled that ING must continue providing banking services to Gazprom until the Russian company opens an account with another bank in Europe. This decision follows a lawsuit by Gazprom International Projects, which argued that closing its accounts would hinder its payment obligations. Despite ING's concerns over sanctions and reputational risks, the court found no evidence of money laundering risks and acknowledged Gazprom's efforts to find alternative banking options. The ruling emphasizes the need for Gazprom to keep searching for another bank while maintaining its relationship with ING temporarily.
