Rabobank Group announced a cut of 2,000 jobs as part of the so-called Vision 2016 plan that aims to reduce expenses by 220 million euros by 2016. The bank will reduce between 1,000 and 2,000 positions at Rabobank Nederland and at the Dutch arm of the company’s international operations. The job reductions come on top of the 8,000 jobs earlier unveiled at its consumer bank, which currently employs 28,000.
