Dutch bank ING has removed Kevin Spacey from the lineup of a forthcoming business conference, following allegations of sexual harassment made against the actor.

In a statement seen by City A.M., the bank said that the "commotion" around the stories of Spacey's misconduct would potentially "distract from the aim of BusinessBoost Live: inspiring entrepreneurs and helping them be successful in achieving their ambitions".

The news follows a decision by Netflix to end House of Cards just a day after allegations against its star.

It was reported today that another allegation against Spacey had emerged from a British actor, leading to the involvement of Scotland Yard.
