The team

Bank Mendes Gans is part of ING and is the only bank in the world to engage exclusively in liquidity and information management solutions for Fortune 500 multinationals. We operate a bank-independent model and we handle most of the world’s convertible currencies.

We don’t compete with the clients local banks - we cooperate with them. We work multi-currency, multi-country and multi-bank. This allows for a smooth implementation of your liquidity management strategy. Especially if the company has decentralized management, subsidiaries in different countries, different legal and tax regimes, and a large number of bank accounts, bank relationships and banking systems. As we offer overlay solutions on top of existing local bank infrastructure, there is no need to change banks.
