Rabobank Group
Rabobank is a full-range financial services provider operating on the basis of co-operative principles. Its origins are in the local loan co-operatives that were founded in the Netherlands more than 110 year ago by enterprising people who had virtually no access to the capital market. The local Rabobanks that evolved from this have a strong tradition in the agricultural sector and in small and medium-sized enterprises.
Rabobank is one of the leading banks in the Netherlands. Rabobank Group employs more than 58,000 people who serve approximately 10 million clients in 48 countries. In terms of Tier I capital, Rabobank Group ranks among the world’s 25 largest financial institutions.
