Bank supervision in the Netherlands is one of the strongest
in Europe. The Dutch Central Bank (de Nederlandsche Bank,
DNB) sees to it that the banks carry on their business in
a sound and responsible manner. Through its licensing system,
DNB ensures that banks meet certain minimum requirements,
whilst it also monitors compliance.
Conducting business in a socially responsible manner, or
sustainable enterprise, is a concept that has gained importance
in the Dutch banking industry. Banks are aware of their
position in society and, in this context, are focusing their
attention on a large number of banking issues. These issues
arise in connection with environmental aspects, lending,
aspects of the payment system, the banks’ contribution
to the fight against terrorism and fraud, etc. Growing demand
for greater transparency and openness are also important
developments that Dutch banks are involved in and are giving
substance to in every domain.
