Our History

Decades of Growing Alongside Norala

1970

The Foundation

RBNI was founded through the shared vision of local leaders, spearheaded by Dr. Gregorio Limpin, Sr. The mission was clear: drive the economic development of Norala, South Cotabato. From our humble beginnings, we focused on providing vital financial lifelines—particularly agricultural and livelihood financing—helping local communities unlock growth and opportunity.

2011

A New Era of Transformation

The Bank entered an exciting new chapter when ownership was transferred to Brilliant Four Equity Holdings, Inc., popularly known as the MUTI Group of Companies. This transition sparked a significant evolution, bringing:

  • Renewed leadership and strengthened management practices
  • Enhanced operational capabilities
  • A deepened commitment to sustainable growth
Today
