ABN AMRO is a full-service bank in the Netherlands that offers a broad range of products and services to retail, private and corporate banking clients.
We strive to put our clients' interests first and to create long-term, sustainable value for all our stakeholders, including clients, shareholders, employees and society at large. We are committed to maintaining a moderate risk profile. We have a healthy and strong balance sheet, limited trading and investment banking activities, low exposure to highly indebted countries and a good capital and liquidity position. We have a strong position in the Netherlands in all our business activities and are active internationally in private banking and a number of global specialist activities: Energy, Commodities and Transportation (ECT) and Clearing.
ABN AMRO employs 21,664 FTEs (EOY 2016), has an operating income of € 8.588 billion (2016), risk-weighted assets of € 104.2 billion (EOY 2016) and a fully-loaded CET1 ratio of 17.0% (EOY 2016).
30% of ABN AMRO’s depositary receipts representing ordinary shares are listed on the Euronext Amsterdam exchange. The remaining 70% of the shares are held by NLFI (‘Stichting administratiekantoor beheer financiële
instellingen’) on behalf of the Dutch government. [situation February 2017]Main EU files targeted

Meetings
Meetings
4 meetings found. Download meetings
The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
