The details

As New Zealand’s Specialist Food and Agribusiness bank, we understand that funds can build up between operational peaks. With a Rabobank Business Account, those funds can continue working for you through a range of simple savings and term deposit options.

Whether your business runs in seasons, projects or cycles, there are often times when cash isn’t needed straight away.

Our business savings account is designed to help you manage that surplus with clarity, alongside your everyday business banking.

With a range of simple savings and Term Deposit options, you can keep funds accessible when required or set them aside to continue earning interest for future business costs, such as tax.

Savings

Simple savings that suits your business

Whether you’re looking for certainty or flexibility, we have an option to suit your needs. Lock in a fixed rate with a term deposit for money you won’t need right away, or choose an on call savings account if you’d like easy access to your funds while continuing to earn interest, with no account or withdrawal fees.
