Rabo Development

The Rabobank Group serves its clients over the entire world. In addition, Rabo Development helps a number of partner banks in developing countries to grow into modern financial service providers with a nation-wide network of offices. With capital, management and knowledge. An ideal opportunity in which to gain experience abroad.

With Rabo Development, the Rabobank once again gives substance to its original cooperative objective: giving people access to financial services in order to build a better existence. In a number of stable developing countries, Rabo Development looks for cooperation with banks with a relatively large network of offices.  Rabo Development takes a minority interest in the bank, is represented in the ‘board’ in order to be able to provide direction to the strategy, makes managers available and provides technical assistance for all the bank functions. In this way, the partner banks can grow more quickly and develop themselves in the longer run into complete and strong banks. With that, they contribute to Rabobank's presence in countries that are gaining interest in the world economy, also especially in the agrarian area. 

Knowledge and ability
Rabo Development develops the partner banks according to the example of the Rabobank in the Netherlands. That is why Rabobank employees are placed on a regular basis on site in order to support: they have the necessary knowledge and ability. The placement can be for short or long term. Long-term involves colleagues with wide and lengthy management experience within the Rabobank. With short-term assignments, employees share their knowledge in a number of weeks or months with the local personnel. In addition to banking functions, it can also involve, for example, Human Resources, ICT and audit.
