On 3 July, 2025, we reached a special milestone: our centenary. Only a small fraction of the world’s businesses have succeeded in thriving for as long, and we are proud of this achievement. But it is not the number that we want to celebrate, but rather the strength and longevity of business relationships we have enjoyed over those years.
Our longevity is reflected in the long-lasting and valued relationships we've built with our clients and partners, many across several decades. Each of them is part of our story and we are proud of the trust we have earned over time.
We’re also happy to celebrate long-lasting internal business relationships. Many of our employees have been with us for a considerable number of years, celebrating work anniversaries of 10, 20, 30 years and over. This is a testament to our strong company culture of working together to deliver unrivalled service to our customers, a culture in which we continuously strive for improvement and know we can always rely on each other.
We are all contributing to something that is bigger than us and will last longer than we do. When we do the best work we can, we have the opportunity to create a ripple effect and give back to society in a way that enables trade and creates something bigger than we are.
We’ve been around for 100 years, but we have not stood still. Over these hundred years, we've innovated and adapted to technological and market changes. Our focus has been on making sure our clients have access to the most advanced and relevant tools and services.
Our focus remains the same – managing risk, enabling trade – but our solutions and technologies have developed. Today we combine experience with innovation to offer a service that best meets our clients’ needs.
We’ve also grown from our roots in Amsterdam into a multinational business with a footprint spanning the world. We are as excited to celebrate the single-digit anniversaries of our newest market offices as we are the century of our head office.
Our advanced age means we have weathered 100 years of economic cycles and survived the test of time. We experienced the Wall Street Crash and Great Depression just four years after we were founded. Since then, we’ve also lived through the Second World War, global recessions and a global pandemic, not to mention challenges in individual local markets.
The past 100 years have given us valuable experience and knowledge which we can draw on when supporting our clients to navigate their way through the challenges facing today’s global markets.
As we mark our 100th anniversary, we celebrate a legacy of trust – and a shared purpose with our customers to enable trade. We take pride in our journey of growth and of the business markets we support.
