For most of us, our home is the most important purchase we’ll ever make. But it’s so much more than just a financial investment – our home is central to our wellbeing. With around 10 million households in Australia, it’s no surprise that more than 10 per cent of our total emissions come from energy used within our homes.

On 31 July 2024, ANZ completed the acquisition of Suncorp Bank, onboarding around 3,000 employees, about 1.2 million customers and $54.6 billion of deposits the very next day. “Today marks exactly 100 days since the acquisition, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the progress.”When we made our bid to buy Suncorp Bank over two years ago, the transaction made a lot of sense.

This is not the start of some elaborate joke – it’s a bit of wisdom passed onto me early in my career and I still reflect on it today. "Being a contemporary ‘product person’ will help you shoot for the moon in ways you have never imagined. It’s about curiosity.

We have seen this in real time over the past year as a series of innovations and new capabilities have been added to our new retail banking platform, ANZ Plus. "While we are starting small, it is radically different to what we have available today and importantly, at a significantly lower cost to serve for the bank.”The purpose of ANZ Plus was not to launch a new app or a new product – but rather to build a powerful new retail banking platform from the ground up.
