Restructuring events
European Restructuring Monitor (ERM)
The restructuring events database contains factsheets with data on large-scale restructuring events reported in the principal national media and company websites in each EU Member State. This database was created in 2002.
The Bank ING announced its intention to cut 315 jobs in Belgium. ING is an international savings bank present in 50 countries that offer services in banking, investments, life insurance and retirement. The restructuring measures will not lead to direct dissmissals but will mainly consist in the non-replacement of retired staff, in transfers within the company or in non-recruitment of posts that were planned. The decision was motivated by the necessity for the bank to save more than 100 millions Euros.
