Rabo gets chairman of international operations
(24 July 2006 – Australia) Rabobank has appointed Hans ten Cate as chairman of international operations on the bank’s Australia and New Zealand board of directors.

Rabobank Australia & New Zealand chairman James Graham said Mr ten Cate was a highly regarded member of the international banking community and would be a considerable asset to the board.

Ten Cate joined Rabobank in 2000 after a 25 year career with ABN Amro. He is a member of the Rabobank Group’s executive board and was appointed chairman of the managing board of Rabobank International this month.
He takes the place left by the retirement of former international deputy chairman Wouter Kolff.
Other directors of the Australasian board are: James Graham, Bill Gurry, Erich Fraunschiel, John Palmer, David Smithers, Rik van Slingelandt, Australia and New Zealand chief executive Bruce Dick, and deputy CEO Andrew Davis.
