Being a meaningful cooperative bank is the essence of
what Rabobank stands for: it is one of the four corner
stones of our strategy. In a rapidly changing society and
in an era of digitalisation and diminishing trust in
institutions, life seems to revolve more around the
individual instead of the community. People are required
to be more independent and self-reliant in a world of
increasing uncertainty.
