ING Hires Aled Patchett to Lead UK Sector Strategy

ING has appointed Aled Patchett as Head of Sectors UK, as the bank steps up its push to deepen client coverage and drive cross-product growth in the UK market.

Aled joins from Lloyds Bank, where he spent nearly two decades in senior roles spanning sector coverage, markets and transaction banking.

Most recently, he led specialist sales for transaction banking solutions and previously served as Global Head of Consumer & Retail, overseeing international client coverage.

Alexandra MacMahon, UK Country Manager, ING, said:

“Clients don’t think in product lines – they think in outcomes. Our next phase of growth in the UK is about being more joined-up – across sectors and across products. We see a clear opportunity to deepen client relationships in the UK and improve how we deliver cross-product solutions across lending, capital markets and advisory, transaction services and financial markets. Aled brings the experience to turn that into tangible growth.”

Aled will lead ING’s UK sector teams, overseeing client coverage and commercial activity across ING’s full-service product suite.

He will be responsible for driving growth across the bank’s key sectors including Energy, Infrastructure, Real Estate, Financial Institutions, Commodities, Food & Agribusiness, Transport and Logistics, Corporate Sector Coverage and Sustainable Finance.

Aled Patchett, Head of Sectors, ING UK said:

“ING has a strong platform in the UK. I’m looking forward to working with the team to bring our sectors and products together in a more joined‑up way, so we can deepen relationships and deliver growth with our clients.”

Aled will be a Senior Management Function (SMF) holder and will join ING’s UK management team. He will report functionally to Erik Fortgens, Head of Sectors EMEA and hierarchically to Alexandra MacMahon, UK Country Head.
