Hans ten Cate Sipko Schat Chairman MBRI Vice Chairman MBRI Issue 13 February 2007 The Word 3 Welcome to a new issue of The Word. As we mentioned in the previous issue, 2007 will be a year for embedding the changes we made in 2006 but also for exploring new opportunities. The Managing Board Rabobank International (MBRI) has taken major steps to further advance our goals. On page 4, you'll read about MBRI's new composition and authority, which has clarified responsibilities along management lines. Dear colleagues, But the changes go deeper than that. We've also redefïned the roles and reporting structures for more clarity and consistency throughout the bank. This will mean a stronger and more organised Rabobank across the board.
