ERNA KANEN:

MANAGING DIRECTOR

Erna received her Business Economics degree from Groningen University early in 1993. She started her career as an account manager Finance with Getronics Software. After this baptism in the world of IT, banking caught her eye. Erna went to work for Schretlen & Co, a wholly-owned Rabobank subsidiary that is a private bank and asset manager, in 1995. Over time she developed expertise in providing services to high net worth individuals and business owners, focussing on business succession. Erna decided after ten years to switch to a group of local Rabobank offices, where she was responsible for Private Banking and Investing. She left Rabobank to join Purplefield Investments late in 2009.
