Voted world's safest private bank 2007

Global Finance magazine is the world's leading finance magazine, read by over 250,000 professionals. Each year, the world's largest banks (both public and private) compete for the coveted title of: 'World's Safest Bank'.

We are proud to say that the Rabobank Group was ranked 1st in 2001, 2002 and 2004. Every year since 2005 we have been ranked the highest (safest) privately owned bank in the world, closely behind two European government backed banks in 2005-06 and three European government backed banks in 2007.

So with RaboPlus, you can rest assured that your money is in safe hands.

Our Digipass system offers extremely high levels of security

DigipassWhy wouldn't you choose a bank that offers one of the safest methods of online banking available today? Not only do we provide outstanding rates, total flexibility and no fees on our savings accounts, but your money is accessible using the patented Digipass system.

The Digipass is approximately 4cm x 7cm in size - much smaller than a mobile phone. And it means you need more than a simple password to access your accounts or conduct transactions.

It's all based on something called two-factor authentication. In short, your account(s) are protected by two things: something you have (the Digipass); and something you know (your Customer Number and PIN code).

AAA credit rated

The Rabobank Group has the highest qualification of credit status (AAA) from prominent international rating agencies Standard & Poor's, Moody's and Dominion Bond Rating Service. Measured by its core capital, the organisation is one of the world's twenty largest financial institutions.

Credit ratings essentially reflect the ability of a financial agency to meet all the monetary obligations that its investors expect, i.e. pay out all interest amounts and principal on time.
