Executive blog
Welcome to the RaboPlus executive blog. I'm the General Manager of RaboPlus, the DIY online banking service from Rabobank. I'm keen to have a direct line of conversation with our customers and friends through this blog, share my opinions on a host of relevant and topical issues and hear your thoughts on them too.
So don't be shy - please post back your comments to my musings and send me any questions you have about the market, online banking, investing and RaboPlus. I welcome your feedback on how you think we are going, things we can do better, and other things important to you. I will respond regularly.
