By listening closely, we can identify the best ways to leverage our knowledge, global network and financial solutions to support their goals. Our cooperative approach is reflected in the way we bank and collaborate with our customers. Additionally, we invest parts of our profit back into society through various cooperative initiatives and our cooperative dividend.

Rabo Art Collection
Since 1995, Rabobank has been building a contemporary art collection featuring both Dutch and international artists. In collaboration with the artists, key works are selected that mark a milestone in their artistic careers and that tell the artist’s story. These works also reflect the development of modern Dutch art since 1950. Three storylines predominate in the collection: people, society and ideas.
