Van Lanschot Kempen is an independent wealth manager for high-net-worth individuals, entrepreneurs, institutional investors and businesses.
What could change its growth trajectory, and what would confirm it?
Growth at Van Lanschot Kempen is partnership-led: the announced steps add assets and distribution through other institutions instead of requiring a standalone expansion. Aegon Asset Management will hand over its Dutch fiduciary management operations, overseeing EUR 26 billion in assets, to Van Lanschot Kempen Investment Management, alongside an expanded collaboration in alternative fixed income. KBC Securities and Van Lanschot Kempen Investment Banking plan to merge their specialist equities businesses into a joint venture split 50/50.
Client assets grew 15% to EUR 207.1 billion and assets under management rose 17% to EUR 186.7 billion versus the end of 2025. State Street Investment Management and Van Lanschot Kempen Investment Management are introducing two active exchange-traded funds covering US small caps and Europe ex-UK small caps. Coöperatie VGZ committed an initial EUR 25 million to Van Lanschot Kempen Investment Management's Farmland Fund, and Stichting Pensioenfonds Haskoning Nederland named Van Lanschot Kempen Investment Management its fiduciary manager.
Which risks could break the thesis, and what would warn of them?
The unfinished handover could impair Van Lanschot Kempen's next growth step, because the transfer remains pending: Aegon Asset Management is to move its Dutch fiduciary management activities, overseeing EUR 26 billion in assets, into Van Lanschot Kempen Investment Management. That transfer sits within an expanded long-term partnership and an expanded collaboration in alternative fixed income.
KBC Securities and Van Lanschot Kempen Investment Banking have announced their intention to combine their specialist equities activities into a 50/50 joint venture.
