Ivna Esajas wins 13th edition of ABN AMRO Art Award
Ivna Esajas has won the 13th edition of the ABN AMRO Art Award. The jury appreciates Esajas as an artist who is committed to following her own path, creating a unique and thought-provoking universe at the intersection of drawing and painting. In doing so, she raises questions about how we relate to one another and to history, and achieves this by means both poetic and playful. The ABN AMRO Art Award supports the development of promising female artists in the Netherlands and provides a platform for them to reach the widest possible audience. As part of the Award, Ivna Esajas will exhibit her work at Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam and in the ABN AMRO Art Space in the Zuidas business district in November 2025.
First-time buyers are missing opportunities: 60% haven’t met with adviser or bank yet
Over two thirds of first-time buyers expect buying a home to be difficult. But over six out of ten (61%) haven’t discussed their plans with a mortgage adviser or bank yet. A study carried out by Ipsos I&O on behalf of ABN AMRO has shown that first-time buyers who expect that buying a home will be difficult for them are less likely to consult a mortgage adviser or bank. A wasted opportunity, according to ABN AMRO. That’s why the bank is calling on first-time buyers to make an appointment so that they can explore their options.

New research by ABN AMRO and the Impact Institute shows that Dutch enterprises are responsible for no less than 41 billion euros in social costs. These social costs stem from human rights violations throughout the entire production chain of Dutch businesses.
