On the 17th of June, ING Life Insurance and ING Pensions were given a fine by CSSPP, the Romanian pensions regulator, because they outsourced the asset management activity for their pension. The fine was worth RON 1.385 mln. (EUR 380,000) - the harshest penalty ever given by CSSPP, after a series of written warnings to other pension fund managers.
The two ING companies outsourced the asset management activity for the pension funds to ING Asset Management B.V. The Netherlands - Bucharest, move forbidden by a decision by CSSPP, dated April this year.
