Base Prospectus


RAIFFEISEN BANK INTERNATIONAL AG
EUR 25,000,000,000 Debt Issuance Programme
for the issue of Notes (as defined herein)

Under the EUR 25,000,000,000 Debt Issuance Programme described in this Base Prospectus (the "Programme"), Raiffeisen Bank
International AG may from time to time issue notes in bearer form (the "Bearer Notes") and Covered Bank Bonds (Fundierte
Bankschuldverschreibungen) in bearer form ("Covered Bank Bonds" and together with the Bearer Notes, the "Notes"). The aggregate
principal amount of Notes (issued under the Programme) outstanding will not at any time exceed EUR 25,000,000,000 (or the equivalent in
other currencies).

This Prospectus constitutes a prospectus as defined in Article 5.4 of Directive 2003/71/EC (the "Prospectus Directive"). Application has
been made to list Notes issued under the Programme on the official list of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, to admit Notes to trading on
the Regulated Market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and application may be made to admit Notes on the Second Regulated Market
("Geregelter Freiverkehr") of the Vienna Stock Exchange or on any other stock exchange. The Regulated Market of the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange and the Second Regulated Market ("Geregelter Freiverkehr") of the Vienna Stock Exchange are regulated markets for the
purposes of the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive 2004/39/EEC (a "Regulated Market").

The Issuer has requested the Commission de Surveillance du Sectrur Financier (the "CSSF") in its capacity as competent authority under
the Luxembourg act relating to prospectuses for securities (Loi relative aux prospectus pour valeurs mobilières) which implements the
Prospectus Directive into Luxembourg law to provide the competent authority in the Federal Republic of Germany ("Germany") and in the
Republic of Austria ("Austria") with a certificate of approval attesting that the Prospectus has been drawn up in accordance with the Loi
relative aux prospectus pour valeurs mobilières ("Notification"). The Issuer may request the CSSF to provide competent authorities in
additional Member States within the European Economic Area with a Notification.

Notes will be issued in tranches (each a "Tranche"), each Tranche consisting of Notes which are identical in all respects. One or more
Tranches, which are expressed to be consolidated and form a single series and are identical in all respects, but may have different issue
dates, interest commencement dates, issue prices and dates for first interest payments may form a series ("Series") of Notes. Further Notes
may be issued as part of an existing Series. The specific terms of each Tranche will be determined at the time of offering of such Tranche
based on then prevailing market conditions and will be set forth in the applicable final terms (the "Final Terms") (the form of which is
contained herein).

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Prospectus contains certain forward-looking statements. A forward-looking statement is a statement that does

phrases such as "anticipate", "believe, "could", "estimate", "expect", "intend", "may", "plan", "predict", "project",
"will" and similar terms and phrases, including references and assumptions. This applies, in particular, to statements

business and management, its growth and profitability, and general economic and regulatory conditions and other
factors that affect it.
Forward-looking statements in this Prospectus are based on current estimates and assumptions that the Issuer makes
to the best of its present knowledge. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other
factors which could cause actual results, including the Issuer's financial condition and results of operations, to differ
materially from and be worse than results that have expressly or implicitly been assumed or described in these
forward-looking statements. The Issuer's business is also subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could
cause a forward-looking statement, estimate or prediction in this Prospectus to become inaccurate. Accordingly,
investors are strongly advised to read the following sections of this Prospectus: "Summary", "Risk Factors" and
"Description of Raiffeisen Bank International AG". These sections include more detailed descriptions of factors that
might have an impact on the Issuer's business and the markets in which it operates.
In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, future events described in this Prospectus may not occur. In
addition, neither the Issuer nor the Dealers assume any obligation, except as required by law, to update any forward-
looking statement or to conform these forward-looking statements to actual events or developments.

taken without a meeting in accordance with the Terms and Conditions of the Notes,
are binding upon all Holders. Resolutions providing for material amendments to the
