Rabobank Group

Although the ongoing economic recovery remains fragile, a number of sectors of the Dutch economy are showing tentative signs of improvement. Thanks to the confidence of its clients, Rabobank was able to maintain its positions in the savings and SME markets, and build on its leading position in the mortgage market. Rabobank attracted more client deposits from retail and corporate clients. Against this, due to the economic climate, retail clients were reticent to take out new mortgages and businesses postponed investments. As a consequence, growth in lending in the Netherlands levelled off.
While some of our corporate clients still faced problems in the first six months of the year, others saw improvements thanks to the economic recovery. On balance, bad debt costs dropped at Rabobank Group. After a challenging 2009, net profit was up again in the first six months of 2010, rising 26% to EUR 1,661 million. The liquidity position remained robust and the capital position continued to improve. The tier 1 ratio increased by 1.1 percentage points to 14.9%.
Rabobank will continue to focus on providing excellent client services, achieving sound margins and ensuring ongoing operational efficiency.
