The VEB

Since 2008 VEB has made great efforts to obtain justice for Fortis investors who suffered losses as result. The settlement announced will bring an end to the legal proceedings initiated by VEB against Ageas, its former directors and banks. For the time being, these court cases have been suspended. Managing Director of the VEB, Paul Koster, is proud of the result that has been achieved: "The settlement announced today is an important step towards compensation for tens of thousands shareholders who suffered damage. For Ageas and the current shareholders the settlement means the conclusion of a difficult and uncertain period."
