Our values Based on this mission, Rabobank Group's ambition is to be the largest, best and most customer-driven and innovative financial institution in the Netherlands. With their co-operative structure and a current membership of more than 1.5 million, the local Rabobanks are firmly rooted in society. In the Netherlands, Rabobank may justifiably call itself committed, near-you and a leader. Through its commitment to its clients and their world, Rabobank plays an active, leading role near by them. Innovating, inspiring, competent and visionary are core concepts in this context. In addition, Rabobank is a personal bank - a bank with a human face. Rabobank gets to business starting from the human aspect: human 'orange' first, and then to business 'blue', the two core colours of Rabobank's corporate logo. In the international environment, Rabobank Group aspires to be the best food agri bank, with a strong presence in the world's major food agriculture countries. For this purpose, the Group uses the experience it has accumulated in the Netherlands over many years. In addition, the Group aims at global excellence in sustainable entrepreneurship and banking, as would befit its identity and position in society. Rabobank Group will further integrate corporate social responsibility in its core activities. In the Netherlands, Rabobank Group offers all the financial services needed by clients as they participate in an economy- driven modern society. The Group strives to ensure that its services are continually adjusted and updated so that they always meet the needs of private individuals and businesses alike. Rabobank believes that sustainable growth in prosperity and well-being requires careful nurturing of natural resources and the living environment and it aims to contribute to this development with its activities. Rabobank respects the culture and traditions of the countries where it operates without losing sight of its own objectives and values. In all its actions, Rabobank puts its clients' best interests first. The bank creates customer value by: - providing those financial services considered best and most appropriate by our clients; - ensuring continuity in the services provided with a view to the long-term interests of the client; - showing commitment to our clients and their environment, so that we can contribute to achieving their ambitions.
