As part of this updated plan, NLFI and ABN AMRO have already agreed to new terms. The parties decided that if NLFI’s stake falls below 15%, they will negotiate in good faith regarding NLFI’s information rights.

Additionally, once NLFI’s ownership drops below one-third, the state entity will no longer have the right to be informed about investments or divestments by ABN AMRO exceeding €50m ($54m).

The other requirements in the partnership agreement remain unchanged.
