Earthquakes in Turkey and Syria


On Monday, February 6 2023, Turkey and Syria were hit by two major earthquakes. At ABN AMRO, our thoughts are with all the people affected and our hearts go out to our colleagues with family and friends in the region.
It is heart-warming to see all the relief initiatives being taken. ABN AMRO wants to support and strengthen these initiatives. The bank has therefore decided to implement a number of measures, including:
ABN AMRO clients (natural persons) who want to transfer money to Turkey will not be charged transfer costs for a period of three months. As sanctions have been imposed on Syria, unfortunately we cannot offer the same for payments to Syrian accounts.
Colleagues can use their Banking for Better days – which are intended for their own development or to put the bank’s purpose into action in any way they want – to help.
Tikkie users can easily donate via the app to giro 555 to support the action for victims in Turkey and Syria.
ABN AMRO will make a donation of EUR 250.000 to giro 555 via Tikkie.
