5 January 2015 – Rabobank has become the ninth bank to formally adopt the ‘Soft Commodities’ Compact between the Banking Environment Initiative (BEI) and the Consumer Goods Forum (CGF).
The goal of the Compact is to lead the banking industry in aligning with the Consumer Goods Forum’s resolution to help achieve zero net deforestation by 2020.
As the globally leading food and agri bank with active presence throughout global value chains, from farmers to processing, trading, wholesale and retail, food production and security represent Rabobank’s natural environment. The University of Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL) welcomes Rabobank to the group of Compact Banks and looks forward to working with them as this group continues to grow.
