ING posts 3Q2024 net result of €1,880 million, supported by commercial growth and strong income 3Q2024 profit before tax of €2,668 million with a four - quarter rolling average return on equity of 13.8% • Resilient net interest income, supported by volume growth in lending and deposits • Fee income increasing 11% year - on - year, surpassing €1 billion, with significant growth in both Retail and Wholesale Banking • Increase of 189,000 mobile primary customers and strong growth in mortgages • €2.5 billion distribution announced as we continue to align our capital to our target level CEO statement “In the third quarter of 2024, we have again delivered strong results and are executing well on our strategy to accelerate growth, increase impact and deliver value for all stakeholders,” said Steven van Rijswijk, CEO of ING. “We have grown our customer base and taken important steps in our climate action approach. Our good commercial momentum has led to robust income growth, specifically in fee income. We have also seen increased lending and deposit volumes and resilient margins. “Fee income has continued to increase in line with our ambition to diversify our income and surpassed € 1 billion for the first time . Fee income from retail investment products has continued to rise, reflecting an increase in assets under management and customer trading activity . Wholesale Banking has in particular benefited from higher deal flow in Global Capital Markets . “In Retail Banking, performance was supported by strong core lending growth of €6 billion, mainly in residential mortgages across all Retail markets. Our market share of new mortgage production has increased significantly in the Netherlands, as our quick processing of digital applications and our flexible operations helped us in a very competitive market. This is a clear example of how we increase impact and deliver value for customers. “Wholesale Banking income was resilient, supported by volume growth in lending and deposits in addition to strong results in Payments & Cash Management and Financial Markets. Our Capital Markets Advisory business continues to grow following investments to further build on our expertise. We aim to optimise our capital efficiency and during this quarter we have significantly reduced our risk - weighted assets (RWA) in Wholesale Banking. “Expenses have risen 2 % from the last quarter as we invest in growing our business . Risk costs were € 336 million, in line with our through - the - cycle - average . Our four - quarter rolling return on equity came out at 13 . 8 % and our CET 1 ratio increased to 14 . 3 % , driven by our strong profitability and lower RWA . “We continue to take steps to converge our CET1 capital ratio to our target level of around 12.5%. The share buyback programme announced in May 2024 has been completed and we today announce a next distribution of €2.5 billion, which will have a pro forma impact of 76 basis points on our CET1 ratio. Operating at the right level of capital is in the best interest of all our stakeholders and allows us to support customers and the economy in the countries we operate in. “In September, we have published our Climate Progress Update 2024, which shares our sharpened approach to client engagement, our updated energy policy and the latest on our Terra approach. We aim to make an impact by working with clients on their transitions to net zero while financing the technologies and solutions needed for a sustainable future. “We are well positioned to continue to execute our strategy and grow our business, and I would like to thank our customers for their loyalty and our employees for their contributions to our excellent third - quarter performance.” Investor enquiries E: investor.relations@ing.com Press enquiries T: +31 (0)20 576 5000 E: media.relations@ing.com Analyst call 31 October 2024 at 9:00 am CET +31 20 708 5074 (NL) +44 330 551 0202 (UK) (Registration required via invitation) Live audio webcast at www.ing.com Media call 31 October 2024 at 11:00 am CET +31 20 708 5073 (NL) +44 330 551 0200 (UK) (Quote ING Media Call when prompted by the operator) Live audio webcast at www.ing.com Press release ING Corporate Communications Amsterdam, 31 October 2024
Business Highlights Net core lending growth €8.5 bln in 3Q2024 Net core deposits growth €2.9 bln in 3Q2024 Net result €1,880 mln - 5% vs 3Q2023 Fee income €1,009 mln +11% vs 3Q2023 CET1 ratio 14.3% +0.3% vs 2Q2024 Return on equity (4 - qtr rolling avg) 13.8% - 0.2% vs 2Q2024 Superior value for customers NPS score: Ranked #1 in 5 of 10 retail markets Mobile primary customers 1) : +189,000 in 3Q2024 We aim to deliver superior value to our customers, including offering a seamless digital experience and simplifying customers’ journeys. The number of our mobile primary customers — primary customers with a mobile interaction through our app or website — grew by 189,000 to reach 13.9 million, out of a total of more than 39 million customers. Mobile primary customers now make up 88% of our total of 15.8 million primary customers. Germany, Türkiye and Romania were particularly strong in mobile primary customer growth. In the Netherlands, we gained significant market share in mortgages as our quick processing of digital applications and our flexible operations helped us optimally benefit in a dynamic and competitive environment. This also resulted in a higher net promoter score from intermediaries. Our strong technology foundations enable us to scale our digital capabilities across our markets. For example, this quarter we have launched our shared app foundation, called ‘OneApp’, to Business Banking customers in Germany, following earlier rollouts in the Netherlands and Belgium. We’re working on expanding it to other countries as well. We’re also scaling our fraud prevention capabilities to keep our customers safe and secure. Our ‘Look who’s calling’ feature in the mobile app allows customers to check whether a call is in fact from an ING employee. It was first introduced in the Netherlands and has now been expanded to Italy and Poland and other countries will follow. Sustainability Volume mobilised 2) : €85.3 bln in 9M2024 vs €73.9 bln in 9M2023 Sustainability deals supported by ING: 565 in 9M2024 vs 507 in 9M2023 We aim to put sustainability at the heart of what we do. This quarter, we have published our Climate Progress Update 2024, which outlines the important steps we’ve taken to sharpen the way we engage with clients on their transition towards net zero. It also includes our progress on steering the most carbon - intensive sectors in our loan portfolio towards global climate goals — our ‘Terra’ approach. We continue to support homeowners in retrofitting their homes to make them more energy - efficient, and to offer sustainable mortgages for homes that qualify. Importantly, we have announced new steps in our policy for energy financing. We have stopped all new general financing to ‘pure - play’ upstream oil & gas companies that continue to develop new fields. In addition, driven by guidance from the International Energy Agency, we will stop providing new financing for new LNG export terminals after 2025. We believe that we can make the most impact by financing the technologies and solutions needed for a low - carbon economy. Our sustainable volume mobilised increased by 15% to €85.3 billion year - to - date as we continue to support our corporate clients in their transition. For example, ING acted as sole sustainability coordinator for the upsized refinancing of a syndicated €2 billion revolving credit facility linked to ESG goals for Henkel, owner of consumer brands like Pritt glue and Syoss hair care. We also supported the transition in the transportation sector with a $150 million facility to develop a portfolio of contracted EV charging depots in the US with Voltera, a company that aims to help solve the EV infrastructure challenge and scale zero - emission transportation. Society is transitioning to a low - carbon economy. So are our clients, and so is ING. We finance a lot of sustainable activities, but we still finance more that’s not.

Net core deposits growth represents customer deposits adjusted for currency impacts, Treasury and run - off portfolios. Total income In the third quarter of 2024 our total income rose to a record level of €5,909 million, an increase of 3.4% quarter - on - quarter and up 1.1% compared with 3Q2023. The increase was supported by continued growth in customer balances and fee income. Net interest income from lending and liabilities was resilient; however, total net interest income declined quarter - on - quarter due to lower Treasury - related interest income. Lending net interest income was slightly lower compared with 2Q2024 as continued strong volume growth partly compensated for lower margins, while several one - offs had led to a very high net interest income for Wholesale Banking Lending in the second quarter. Liability net interest income increased slightly, reflecting higher average volumes at stable margins. Accounting asymmetry in Financial Markets and Treasury had a combined impact on net interest income of € - 405 million (compared with € - 423 million in 2Q2024), and this was again more than compensated by other income. Other net interest income (when excluding accounting asymmetry) declined by €139 million, mainly due to lower Treasury - related interest income and €31 million in one - offs recorded in the second quarter. Year - on - year, net interest income decreased by €339 million, of which €95 million is explained by accounting asymmetry. A slight increase in net interest income from lending was offset by a decline in net interest income from liabilities as average liability margins are normalising. Net interest income from Treasury was also impacted by the ECB’s adjustment in September 2023 of the remuneration on the minimum reserve requirements to zero basis points and by less favourable conditions in the money markets. Net interest income (in € million) and net interest margin (in %) The net interest margin was 1.41% in 3Q2024, which is 7 basis points lower than in 2Q2024. This was mainly due to lower Treasury - related interest income, €31 million of one - offs in net interest income in 2Q2024 and a lower lending margin (particularly in Wholesale Banking). On a four - quarter rolling basis, and excluding accounting asymmetry, the net interest margin in 3Q2024 was 1.62%. Consolidated results
Consolidated Results In the third quarter of 2024, we grew our loan book in both Retail and Wholesale Banking. In Retail Banking, where we continue to expand our customer base, net core lending growth (which is the increase in customer lending adjusted for currency impacts and excluding movements in Treasury and in run - off portfolios) was €6.4 billion. In addition to increasing our residential mortgages portfolio (by €5.7 billion, spread across all countries), we also grew our consumer lending and business lending books. Wholesale Banking recorded net core lending growth of €2.1 billion, thanks to an increase in Lending and Financial Markets, partly offset by our ongoing efforts to optimise capital usage. ING Press Release 3Q2024 4 Also, our deposit base further increased in the third quarter of 2024. Net core deposits growth (which excludes FX impacts and movements in Treasury deposits) was €2.9 billion, to which Retail Banking contributed €1.0 billion. We continued to grow outside the eurozone and recorded a €5.5 billion inflow in Belgium following a successful promotional campaign. This was partially offset by a seasonal outflow (as customers spent part of their holiday allowance as received in 2Q2024) and by an anticipated net outflow in Germany after the end of a promotional campaign. Wholesale Banking recorded net core deposits growth of €1.8 billion, mainly reflecting further targeted growth in deposit volumes for Payments & Cash Management and in Money Markets. With a total net fee and commission income of over €1 billion in the quarter, we are on track to generate €4 billion of fee income this year. Fee income increased 11% year - on - year, with strong growth in both Retail Banking and Wholesale Banking. In Retail Banking, the increase was driven by higher fees from investment products (reflecting growth in assets under management and in the number of trades) as well as an increase in daily banking fees (reflecting a higher number of mobile primary customers and updated pricing for payment packages). The increase in fee income for Wholesale Banking was mainly attributable to a higher deal flow in Global Capital Markets and in Corporate Finance. Sequentially, fee income rose 1.0%. This was driven by higher fees in Retail Banking from daily banking services and investment products. Investment income in 3Q2024 included a €101 million annual dividend from our stake in the Bank of Beijing (up from €98 million a year ago), which was partly offset by realised losses on the sale of debt securities. Other income increased strongly year - on - year, mainly due to the positive offsetting effect of accounting asymmetry in Financial Markets, as well as to a smaller IAS 29 impact (reflecting lower inflation in Türkiye). Furthermore, in 3Q2024 we recorded €77 million as our share in the one - off profit of an associate in Belgium, while other income in 3Q2023 had included a €61 million gain from the release of reserves in Financial Markets. Sequentially, other income rose by €289 million; this was mainly due to the aforementioned gain on a sale as well as to a sharp increase in other income for Treasury. Operating expenses Total operating expenses were € 2 , 904 million, including € 88 million of regulatory costs and € 24 million of incidental cost items . Expenses excluding regulatory costs and incidental items amounted to €2,792 million and rose 9.0% year - on - year, mainly attributable to the impact of inflation on staff expenses and the implementation of the ‘Danske Bank’ ruling on VAT in the Netherlands. This was combined with higher investments in business growth, particularly in the Retail Other countries. Sequentially, the growth in expenses excluding regulatory costs and incidental items was 2.7%. Operating expenses (in € million) Regulatory costs were €88 million in 3Q2024. This amount was stable sequentially but lower year - on - year because the Dutch deposit guarantee fund has already reached its target level this year. Incidental expense items in 3Q2024 amounted to €24 million, reflecting €21 million of restructuring costs for Retail Belgium and €3 million of hyperinflation accounting impacts on expenses in Türkiye (due to accounting requirements of IAS 29). This €24 million of incidental cost items in 3Q2024 compares with €122 million of incidental items in 3Q2023 and €41 million in 2Q2024. Addition to loan loss provisions Net additions to loan loss provisions amounted to €336 million. This is equivalent to 20 basis points of average customer lending, equal to our through - the - cycle average. Total net additions to Stage 3 provisions in 3Q2024 were €453 million and mainly related to individual Stage 3 provisioning. This was largely connected to a few new and existing Stage 3 files in Wholesale Banking. Total Stage 1 and 2 risk costs were € - 117 million. This mainly reflected a partial release of the management overlays that had initially been created to cover the potential impact of higher inflation and rising interest rates on customers’ ability to pay, combined with some model updates in Retail Banking.
Consolidated Results Addition to loan loss provisions (in € million) ING Press Release 3Q2024 5 Risk costs for Retail Banking were € 145 million, or 12 basis points of average customer lending, and mainly related to Germany and Belgium . Wholesale Banking recorded € 191 million of risk costs, or 40 basis points of average customer lending . Net result The net result in 3Q2024 was €1,880 million compared with €1,982 million in 3Q2023 and €1,780 million in the previous quarter. The effective tax rate in 3Q2024 was 27.1% compared with 28.5% in both comparable quarters. For the full year 2024, we expect an effective tax rate of 28%. Return on equity ING Group (in %) ING’s continued strong performance was reflected in a 15.3% return on equity in the third quarter. On a four - quarter rolling average basis, the return on equity remained high at 13.8%. ING’s return on equity is calculated using average IFRS - EU shareholders' equity after excluding 'reserved profit not included in CET1 capital', which amounted to €1,559 million at the end of 3Q2024. This reflects 50% of the resilient net profit in the first nine months of 2024, which has been reserved for distribution in line with our policy, minus the interim dividend over 2024 that was paid in August. Resilient net profit is defined as net profit adjusted for significant items that are not linked to the normal course of business. In line with this definition, and consistent with previous quarters, the impact of hyperinflation accounting has been excluded. Therefore, resilient net profit was €36 million higher than net profit in 3Q2024. 2024 Outlook 1) Based on current assumptions and scenarios, we expect a total income in 2024 of >€22.5 billion (including €4 billion of fee income) and a cost/income ratio of ~53%. For 2024, a return on equity is expected of >13%. The CET1 ratio is expected to converge towards our ~12.5% target by 2025. 1) The targets, outlook and trends discussed in this 2024 Outlook section are forward - looking statements that are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to change, including as a result of the factors described under the section entitled ‘Important Legal Information’ in this document. ING assumes no obligation to publicly update or revise these forward - looking statements, whether as a result of new information or for any other reason.

Currency impacts amounted to € - 3 billion, largely due to the depreciation of the US dollar relative to the euro. Movements on the asset side of the balance sheet were primarily visible in customer lending and loans and advances to banks. Customer lending increased by €12 billion, primarily driven by Retail Banking and Treasury. Loans and advances to banks were €4 billion lower, largely due to less reverse repo business. On the liability side of the balance sheet, debt securities in issue rose by €10 billion, mainly reflecting new issuances and higher CD/CP. Customer deposits increased by €6 billion, with net inflows across Treasury, Wholesale Banking and Retail Banking. These increases were partly offset by €4 billion lower deposits from banks and €4 billion lower other liabilities. Shareholders’ equity Shareholders’ equity increased by € 1 , 147 million, primarily reflecting the € 1 , 880 million net result recorded in 3 Q 2024 and a € 666 million increase in the cashflow hedge reserve . These increases were partly offset by the payment of the € 1 , 129 million interim dividend in August .

The increase of both the Tier 1 and the Total Capital ratios mirrors trends in the CET1 ratio. The issuance of a $1 billion AT1 instrument in September 2024 and a €1.25 billion Tier 2 instrument in August 2024, partly offset by the redemption of a €1 billion Tier 2 instrument, helped further increase the Tier 1 and Total Capital ratios. The leverage ratio increased from 4.6% to 4.7%, driven by an increase in Tier 1 capital. Risk - weighted assets (RWA) The decrease in total RWA in 3Q2024 mainly reflects lower credit RWA. ING Group: Composition of RWA 30 Jun. 2024 30 Sep. 2024 in € billion 278.6 276.7 Credit RWA 38.5 38.5 Operational RWA 13.8 13.2 Market RWA 330.9 328.5 Total RWA Excluding a € - 1.6 billion FX impact, credit RWA decreased by €0.3 billion compared to the end of 2Q2024. This decline included € - 1.9 billion as partial reversal of the €+6.5 billion increase in model updates from the previous quarter and € - 1.8 billion due to the change in the profile of the loan book, partially offset by business growth (€+3.6 billion). Operational RWA remained flat and market RWA decreased by €0.5 billion. Distribution ING has reserved €922 million of the 3Q2024 net profit for distribution. Resilient net profit in 3Q2024, which is defined as net profit adjusted for significant items not linked to the normal course of business, was €1,916 million. This includes a positive adjustment to the reported net result of €36 million, which is related to hyperinflation accounting according to IAS 29 in the consolidation of our subsidiary in Türkiye. The additional distribution of €2.5 billion, as announced on 2 May 2024, was completed on 11 October 2024. The total number of ordinary shares repurchased under the programme was almost 156 million. Today, ING announced the start of a share buyback programme under which it plans to repurchase ordinary shares of ING Group for a maximum total amount of €2.0 billion. In addition, ING has announced that an amount of €500 million will be paid out in cash to shareholders on 16 January 2025. The buyback programme and additional cash payment will have a combined impact of roughly 76 basis points on our CET1 ratio. CET1 requirement ING targets a CET1 ratio of around 12.5%, which is comfortably above the prevailing CET1 ratio requirement (including buffer requirements) of 10.71%. This requirement remained unchanged compared with 2Q2024. ING’s fully loaded CET1 requirement was 10.87% at the end of 3Q2024. The increase versus 2Q2024 (10.77%) was mainly caused by the activation of a countercyclical buffer in Poland, which was announced in 3Q2024. This buffer will be phased in over the next 12 months.
Capital, Liquidity and Funding MREL and TLAC requirements Minimum Required Eligible Liabilities (MREL) and Total Loss Absorbing Capacity (TLAC) requirements apply to ING Group at the consolidated level of the resolution group. The available MREL and TLAC capacity consists of own funds and senior debt instruments issued by ING Group. ING’s MREL requirement (including buffer requirements) is 29 . 03 % of RWA and 7 . 32 % of leverage exposure . The MREL capacity increased in 3 Q 2024 due to a higher CET 1 capital coupled with the issuance of a $ 1 billion AT 1 instrument, a €1.25 billion Tier 2 instrument and a dual - tranche HoldCo Senior of €2.75 billion. This was partly offset by the redemption of a €1 billion Tier 2 instrument and a €1 billion Senior HoldCo instrument. The MREL surplus based on RWA and leverage exposure increased due to a higher MREL capacity and lower RWA. The prevailing TLAC requirements (including buffer requirements) are 23.28% of RWA and 6.75% of leverage exposure.

This was offset by redemptions amounting to €4.8 billion.

Retail Banking Retail Banking continued to deliver strong growth in the third quarter of 2024. The number of mobile primary customers rose by 189,000. Almost all of our retail countries contributed to this increase. We continued to grow our loan portfolio. Net core lending growth (which excludes currency impacts, Treasury and run - off portfolios) was €6.4 billion in this quarter. This was particularly driven by a further increase of our mortgage portfolio across all markets. At the same time, we also further grew our consumer lending and business lending portfolios. Net core deposits growth (which excludes FX impacts and Treasury) was €1.0 billion. We recorded continued growth outside the eurozone and a strong inflow in Belgium following a successful promotional campaign. This was largely offset by a seasonal outflow, as customers spent part of their holiday allowance as received in 2Q2024, and by an anticipated net outflow in Germany after the end of a promotional campaign. Net interest income decreased on both comparable quarters due to volatility in interest income for Treasury. While quarter - on - quarter this was compensated by higher other income, year - on - year Treasury was faced with less favourable market conditions and the loss of interest on the ECB minimum reserve requirements. Net interest income from lending increased both year - on - year and sequentially, primarily driven by volume growth. Net interest income from liabilities rose quarter - on - quarter but declined slightly compared with 3Q2023 as improved liability margins outside the eurozone could not entirely offset the impact of higher average deposit costs in Germany after our successful promotional campaign earlier in the year. Total income increased on both comparable quarters, mainly driven by further growth in fee income and €77 million for our share in the one - off profit of an associate in Belgium. Net fee and commission income was up 13% year - on - year, well above our target range, and rose 1.5% sequentially. We recorded higher fees from investment products, supported by a net inflow in assets under management and a higher number of trades. Daily banking fees were also up, reflecting growth in the number of mobile primary customers and an increase in payment package fees. Expenses included €21 million of restructuring costs in Belgium (versus €34 million in 2Q2024 and €46 million in 3Q2023), while 2Q2024 also included €35 million for a legal provision. Excluding these items, as well as regulatory costs, expenses rose7.1% year - on - year and were flat sequentially. The year - on - year increase mainly reflects CLA impact and salary indexation, investments in business growth, as well as higher VAT costs after the implementation of the 'Danske ruling'. Risk costs amounted to €145 million in 3Q2024, with net additions to Stage 3 being partly offset by several releases in Stage 1 and 2, which resulted from model updates and a partial release of management overlays. Risk costs were 12 basis points of average customer lending, reflecting our strong asset quality. The combination of the above - mentioned items once again resulted in a strong financial performance, with a quarterly result before tax of € 1 , 926 million and a return on equity of 28 . 1 % for the quarter .

Retail Netherlands Net interest income from both lending and liabilities increased year - on - year and sequentially, supported by continued growth in the mortgage portfolio and a higher margin on liabilities. However, these increases were more than offset by lower Treasury - related interest income. Year - on - year this was due to the ECB’s adjustment in September 2023 of the remuneration on the minimum reserve requirement as well as less favourable money market conditions. Quarter - on - quarter, the lower interest income for Treasury was more than compensated by higher other income. Fee income rose strongly year - on - year, driven by higher fees for payment packages and growth in assets under management. Sequentially, fee income also rose, partly reflecting seasonally higher travel - related fees. Net core lending growth was €3.1 billion in 3Q2024, primarily driven by continued growth in mortgages. Net core deposits (which excludes Treasury) declined by €0.4 billion, reflecting seasonality, as customers spent part of their holiday allowance as received in 2Q2024. No regulatory costs were recorded in 3Q2024 because the deposit guarantee fund in the Netherlands has reached its target level. Expenses excluding regulatory costs rose only modestly both year - on - year and sequentially, as the impact of CLA increases was largely offset by savings on external staff and professional services. Risk costs were limited to €9 million and included the favourable impact of higher house prices on the risk costs for mortgages and a release of management overlays. Retail Belgium (including Luxembourg) Net interest income declined both year - on - year and sequentially, mainly due to lower Treasury - related interest income. In addition, net interest income was impacted by higher funding costs for mortgages and an increase in average deposit costs. Fee income rose strongly year - on - year, supported by an increase in assets under management and lower commissions paid. Investment income in 3Q2024 mainly reflects realised results on the sale of bonds, while other income in 3Q2024 included €77 million for our share in the one - off profit of an associate. Customer lending excluding Treasury remained stable in the quarter as a net core lending growth in mortgages of €0.2 billion was offset in other lending. Net core deposits growth was €2.4 billion, driven by a €5.5 billion inflow from our successful term deposit campaigns (exceeding the €2.6 billion outflow we saw a year earlier when customers bought bonds issued by the Belgian government). This was partly offset by an outflow from current accounts due to the holiday season and lower balances for one large business banking client. Expenses included €21 million of incidental costs related to restructuring compared with €46 million of such costs in 3Q2023 and €34 million in 2Q2024. Expenses excluding regulatory costs and the aforementioned items declined slightly both year - on - year and sequentially, as the impact of automatic salary indexation was offset by FTE reductions. The reversals in regulatory costs in 3Q2024 and 2Q2024 reflect adjustments to the contributions to the deposit guarantee scheme. Risk costs amounted to €43 million in 3Q2024 and mainly related to business lending.

Retail Germany Net interest income decreased year - on - year, reflecting higher client rates on savings. This was partly offset by higher lending and deposit volumes as well as an increase in Treasury - related interest income. Sequentially, net interest income increased due to Treasury, while interest income from lending and liabilities remained resilient. Fee income rose year - on - year, fuelled by a higher number of trades in investment products, combined with higher fees from daily banking. Sequentially, fee income decreased, mainly due to lower mortgage brokerage fees. Investment and other income declined, reflecting lower Treasury - related income. Net core lending growth in 3Q2024 was €1.3 billion and largely driven by mortgages. Net core deposits decreased by €2.5 billion, as the anticipated net outflow for private individuals after the end of our promotional campaign was only partly offset by a €0.2 billion inflow in Business Banking. Expenses excluding regulatory costs increased on both comparable quarters, predominantly due to higher staff expenses and investments in business growth. The increase in regulatory costs reflects higher contributions to the deposit guarantee scheme following higher deposit volumes. Risk costs were €56 million and primarily related to consumer lending. Retail Other Net interest income year - on - year was supported by continued growth in lending and deposit volumes, coupled with higher margins. Sequentially, excluding the € - 39 million impact from the Polish mortgage moratorium in 2Q2024, net interest income was stable as higher client volumes at stable margins compensated for lower Treasury - related interest income. Fee income rose on both comparable quarters. This was driven by higher fees in daily banking, reflecting an increase in the number of mobile primary customers and updated pricing of daily banking services, combined with higher fee income in investment products. Other income increased versus both comparable quarters due to higher Treasury - related income. Net core lending growth amounted to €2.0 billion in 3Q2024, reflecting higher mortgage volumes in all countries. Net core deposits growth was €1.6 billion, largely driven by a net inflow in Australia. Expenses excluding regulatory costs and legal provisions were slightly lower sequentially but rose year - on - year due to inflationary pressure, higher marketing expenses and investments in further business growth.

Wholesale Banking income was resilient, when taking into account that both comparable quarters had included positive one - offs. Income was supported by volume growth in both lending and deposits. We are further diversifying our income, as highlighted by strong results for Financial Markets and Payments & Cash Management in this quarter, while Lending had a softer quarter. Our disciplined capital management contributed to a significant reduction in risk - weighted assets. Return on equity came out at 11.2% in 3Q2024, including the impact of relatively high risk costs. Expenses increased year - on - year, reflecting the impact of collective labour agreements, inflation and selective investments in business growth and in our product foundations. Sequentially, expenses were also higher, mainly due to a €23 million provision release in 2Q2024. Risk costs amounted to €191 million (40 basis points of average customer lending) as additions for a few new and existing files in Stage 3 were only partly offset by releases from collective provisions in Stage 1 and 2 (including a partial release of management overlays). Net core lending growth was € 2 . 1 billion, with an increase in Lending and Financial Markets, somewhat counterbalanced by our ongoing efforts to optimise capital usage . Risk - weighted assets decreased by €5.3 billion in the quarter, or by €3.8 billion when excluding FX impacts. This reflects our continued focus on capital management, combined with a decline in undrawn exposures and the partial reversal of an increase in model updates from the previous quarter. Income over average risk - weighted assets came out at 454 basis points. Net customer deposits growth was €1.8 billion, reflecting continued momentum in strategic initiatives in Payment & Cash Management (PCM) and Money Markets. Lending income declined slightly year - on - year, primarily due to lower interest income from decreased volumes, partially compensated by higher other income as 3Q2023 had included negative fair value adjustments. Sequentially, income also decreased after a strong second quarter (which had some one - offs). Income from Daily Banking & Trade Finance declined year - on - year, reflecting lower margins for PCM. This was partly offset by income growth for Trade Finance Services and Working Capital Solutions, on the back of higher margins. Sequentially, income from Daily Banking & Trade Finance increased thanks to higher results from Trade & Commodity Finance. This was supported by successful initiatives to attract deposit balances. Financial Markets income was up year - on - year, when adjusting for a €61 million gain following the release of reserves in the prior year. Strong trading results from Non - Linear and Global Securities Finance products, along with higher fees from Global Capital Markets, were only partly offset by weaker trading results in Credits and Rates. Sequentially, income also increased, driven primarily by a higher performance in Non - Linear and Global Securities Finance products. Income from Treasury & Other decreased year - on - year, mainly because Corporate Investments had a strong 3Q2023. This decrease was partially compensated by higher fee income from Corporate Finance. Sequentially, the decline in income can be almost fully explained by the €70 million one - off income that was recorded in 2Q2024, partially offset by Corporate Finance.

Total income increased by €69 million year - on - year. This was mostly driven by a smaller IAS29 impact (reflecting a lower level of inflation in Türkiye) and higher results from foreign currency ratio hedging. Compared to 2Q2024, total income increased by €167 million, mainly reflecting the annual dividend from our stake in the Bank of Beijing as recorded in 3Q2024 (€101 million) and an increase in income from Group Treasury. Operating expenses in 3Q2024 included a €21 million litigation provision and a €3 million IAS29 impact compared to a €51 million provision and a €26 million IAS29 impact in 3Q2023. Expenses in 2Q2024 also included a VAT refund. Excluding the aforementioned items, expenses were relatively stable on both comparable quarters.
