Risk management
The management of Rabobank Group is based on its strategic principles and, by extension,
on the interrelationship between risk, return and reserves. Both the DNB and the bank itself
have formulated standards concerning Rabobank's organisation and control.
Rabobank's organisation and control are subject to the Dutch Financial Supervision Act,
including subordinate legislation based thereon, and regulations imposed by both the DNB
and the AFM as supervisory authorities. These legal requirements and supervisors'
regulations form Rabobank Group's framework for the organisation and control of its
activities. For further information, please refer to the relevant sections in this Annual Report,
and in particular to the section above on 'Control over financial reporting', which addresses
risks relating to financial reporting, and the 'Risk management' chapter, which includes a
description of control systems relating to the most important other risks identified by
Rabobank Group.
