Acquisitions

In 1996, stockbroking company De Ferm merged into Bank Delen. The Brussels-based company Havaux joined the group in 2000. In 2007, Capital & Finance - the originator of the management company Capfi Delen Private Bank Asset Management - in turn merged with Delen.

Subsequently, in 2011, Delen acquired a 74% majority stake in UK brokerage JM Finn & Co (Ltd). In July 2015, Delen Private Bank reached an agreement to acquire Oyens & Van Eeghen. With this transaction, Delen entered the Dutch market. Since the beginning of 2022, it has operated here under the flag of Delen Private Bank and no longer Oyens & Van Eeghen.

In 2019, René Havaux succeeded Paul De Winter as head of the bank.

As a result of these acquisitions and growth, in 2020 the bank will manage an amount of 43.6 billion euros for customers in the Benelux, the United Kingdom and Switzerland.
