Will the addition of Butte Community Bank affect the soundness or strength of Rabobank, N.A.s balance sheet?
Rabobank, N.A. continues to be a strong and well capitalized bank. Even with the addition of Butte Community Bank’s loans and assets, Rabobank’s capital remains significantly above the “well-capitalized” level. We believe this acquisition was well judged as to the amount of risk Rabobank is assuming, consistent with Rabobank’s conservative credit standards. And, Rabobank, N.A. is backed by the Rabobank Group, which continues to a strong and well- capitalized bank with $850 billion in assets, a AAA rating, and status as one of the world’s safest banks.
