ING Wholesale Banking operates a sprawling tech estate anchored in legacy banking infrastructure—SWIFT, LoanIQ, Murex, SAP, Oracle—while scaling engineering and data hiring across 16 countries. The project backlog reveals an organization grinding through simultaneous regulatory, operational, and digital demands: risk model building, KYC automation, APAC payments digitization, and process standardization. Pain-point clustering (compliance gaps, manual-step automation, vendor risk sourcing) signals a compliance-first, efficiency-second culture typical of large regulated institutions at scale.
