The bank with food at its heart

Founded by Farmers, for Farmers

We were founded in 1898 by farmers looking to support each other’s businesses and give rural communities access to fair financing.

Now as the world’s leading food & agribusiness bank, Rabobank invests in a sustainable food future for all, supporting the production of more food, using less of the world’s precious resources.

Our cooperative values mean that we are accountable to only our clients and their communities - not to shareholder demands like many other banks, so we can focus 100% on our mission of helping farmers grow sustainably.

Banking with us makes a difference

The Rabobank Group finances over $160 billion in the food and agriculture sector globally.

We also support small and micro farmers toward self-sufficiency in 23 emerging and developing countries through the Rabo Foundation.

In Australia, by holding deposits with Rabobank, you are supporting our farmers to grow and produce enough food to feed 75 million people, as every dollar you save is used to fund local food, farming and agriculture.

And all deposits are reinvested locally, they don’t go overseas. So you can have peace of mind that banking with Rabobank is also supporting the Australian economy.
