Curious what it is like to work within Financial Markets (FM) at ING Wholesale Banking? FM distributes securities - bonds, equities, and loans - towards financial institutions and makes a secondary market in these instruments to facility liquidity. On top, FM is globally active in risk intermediation for both corporate end-users and financial institutions whereby we assist them with hedging instruments - derivatives - related to FX, Rates, Commodity and/or Equity exposures. We also support our clients with Money Market products to optimize their cash position and/or funding need.
The session will be hosted by Henning Eckhof (Director – Financial Markets Sales) alongside colleagues from the Financial Markets and Campus team. He joined ING in Amsterdam 2006 and has always worked at ING’s Financial Markets Division distributing Cross Asset Derivatives, FX, and Money Markets products. During his first years he covered primarily large German Corporates and gradually moved his attention to Dutch and International Clients.
