Interesting facts about RBI
Ownership relationships and structure
The Raiffeisen Banking Group in Austria (RBG) is the largest banking group in the country and has the densest
network of bank branches in Austria. There are three levels to the RBG: it is made up of 387 independent and
locally active Raiffeisen banks (level one), the eight Raiffeisen “regional banks”, which are also independent
(level two) and RBI AG (level three).
The 387 Raiffeisen banks together with the regional Raiffeisen banks and specialist companies, form an extensive
and wide-ranging banking network. The Raiffeisen banks are universal banks offering a full range of banking
services, and at the same time are owners of their respective regional banks.
The Raiffeisen regional banks (Raiffeisen Landesbanken or Raiffeisenverband) are responsible for balancing
liquidity and provide other central services for the Raiffeisen banks within their area of operation. The Raiffeisen
regional headquarters act as independent universal banks and have been shareholders in RBI since the merger
between RZB AG and RBI AG in March 2017.
