Backing farmers since 1898
Our Story

The seeds of Rabobank were sown by farmers in the Netherlands in 1898. They set up a banking cooperative, to help farmers support each other in business and make sure that rural communities were treated fairly when it came to getting the finances they needed. Growing and strengthening communities is at the heart of Rabobank. That’s why we say ‘Growing a better New Zealand together.’

Farmers working for farmers

Our business focus is on food and agribusiness. It’s no coincidence that so many Rabobank Agribusiness Managers come from farming backgrounds. Coming from the land, they don’t just understand farming, they were born to it, they live and breathe it.

We believe in putting the customer first with excellent personal service. And that won’t go out of fashion.

Connecting people, sharing knowledge

Rabobank is on the ground with our agribusiness clients. Across New Zealand, our network of 220 agribusiness specialists has built up a bank of local, on-farm and financial knowledge.

They’re backed up by experts in sustainable farm systems, commodity prices, foreign exchange risk management and more. Add to that more than 80 international food and agribusiness analysts and a global network of millions of farmers across 40 countries.

Our Client Councils

Rabobank looks ahead to the future of farming. To do that, we work closely with our agribusiness clients. We’ve set up various Client Councils across New Zealand to understand the  issues that impact the industry and rural communities now and in the future. These issues include rural health, agricultural education and environmental sustainability.

In New Zealand, Rabobank sponsors farming events and dedicated groups. We run programs to create the next generation of leaders like the Rabobank Global Farmers Master Classes, Financial Skills Workshops and Ag Pathways.

To drive future prosperity, we take on an advocacy role through ground-breaking initiatives like the F20 (Food 20) Summit, which promotes food security for the world.
