The present invention relates to a resin binder for toners which includes core/shell particles each including a core portion containing a crystalline polyester obtained by polycondensing an alcohol component containing an aliphatic diol having 2-12 carbon atoms and a carboxylic acid component containing an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid compound having 8-12 carbon atoms in an amount of 70-100 mol %, and a non-crystalline resin (A) obtained by polycondensing an alcohol component and a carboxylic acid component containing at least one succinic acid compound selected from the group consisting of an alkyl (C9-C18) succinic acid and an alkenyl (C9-C18) succinic acid in an amount of 3-60 mol %; and a shell portion containing a non-crystalline resin (B) obtained by polycondensing a carboxylic acid component and an alcohol component containing an aliphatic dialcohol having 2-5 carbon atoms in an amount of 80 mol % or more.
