Policy framework
European banking supervision distinguishes between significant institutions (SIs) and less significant institutions (LSIs), with SI/LSI designations updated regularly by the European Central Bank (ECB). Significant institutions are directly supervised by the ECB using joint supervisory teams that involve the national competent authorities (NCAs) of individual participating countries. Less significant institutions are supervised by the relevant NCA on a day-to-day basis, under the supervisory oversight of the ECB.[1] In the Dutch case, the NCA is De Nederlandsche Bank.[2]

Significant institutions
As of 1 September 2025, the list of supervised institutions maintained by the ECB included the following seven Dutch banking groups as SIs, with names as indicated by the ECB for each group's consolidating entity.[3] Of these, ING has been consistently designated as Global systemically important bank (G-SIB) by the Financial Stability Board, including in its update of November 2025.[4]
- ABN AMRO Bank NV
- ASN Bank NV
- BNG Bank NV
- ING Groep NV
- Nederlandse Waterschapsbank NV
- Coöperatieve Rabobank UA
- RBS Holdings NV (NatWest Group)
A study published in 2024 assessed that the bank with most aggregate assets in the Netherlands (as opposed to total consolidated assets) as of end-2023 was Rabobank at €593 billion, followed by ABN AMRO (€378 billion), ING (€293 billion), BNG (€116 billion), Waterschapsbank (€76 billion), SNS / de Volksbank (now ASN, €71 billion), and RBS Holdings (€28 billion).[5]: 27–28
