Corporate governance
Risk management
For financial institutions, everything revolves
around trust. Trust is the foundation of
the relationship with clients and other
stakeholders, a precondition in the contact
with supervisory authorities and the basis
of the internal relationship between the
market-oriented, controlling and managing
elements of the business.
Trust not only requires good management
of the business, but also as part of this the
proper management of the various risks
that financial institutions are exposed to.
Rabobank Group's corporate governance is
characterised by an open culture with clear
accountability in respect of management
and supervision. A prudent risk policy,
resulting in a modest risk profile, is at the
core of risk management.
