Westpac
We’ve
been helping New Zealanders find the right financial solutions to suit
their lives since 1861. We first opened back then as The Bank of New
South Wales, and then changed our name to Westpac in 1982. Along the way
we’ve grown stronger by joining forces with the Commercial Bank of
Australia and Trust Bank – to become Westpac New Zealand Limited.
We bank all sorts of people and businesses – from young children, to
first home-owners through to big corporates and the New Zealand
Government. Nearly a quarter of all Kiwis bank with Westpac, so we’ve
got great experience and knowledge to draw on when it comes to helping
people with their very first bank account, all the way through to their
retirement.
With almost 200 branches, and around 500 ATMs,
we’re one of New Zealand’s largest banks. We provide a full range of
banking and financial services for personal, business and agribusiness
banking.
