  • Australia's Best Banking Methodology Report
    Mozo Experts Choice Awards Australia’s Best Banking 2021 This report covers Mozo Experts Choice Australia’s Best Banking Awards for 2021. These awards recognise financial product providers who consistently provide great value across a range of different retail banking products. Throughout the past 12 months, we’ve announced awards for the best value products in home loans, personal loans, bank accounts, savings and term deposit accounts, credit cards, kids’ accounts. In each area we identified the most important features of each product, grouped each product into like-for-like comparisons, and then calculated which are better value than most. The Mozo Experts Choice Australia's Best Banking awards take into account all of the analysis we've done in that period. We look at which banking providers were most successful in taking home Mozo Experts Choice Awards in each of the product areas. But we also assess how well their products ranked against everyone else, even where they didn't necessarily win an award, to ensure that we recognise banking providers who are providing consistent value as well as areas of exceptional value. Product providers don’t pay to be in the running and we don’t play favourites. Our judges base their decision on hard-nosed calculations of value to the consumer, using Mozo’s extensive product database and research capacity. When you see a banking provider proudly displaying a Mozo Experts Choice Awards badge, you know that they are a leader in their field and are worthy of being on your banking shortlist. 1 Mozo Experts Choice Awards Australia’s Best Banking 2021 Australia’s Best Bank Australia’s Best Online Bank Australia's Best Large Mutual Bank Australia's Best Small Mutual Bank Australia’s Best Credit Union Australia’s Best Major Bank 2 About the winners ING has continued to offer Australians a leading range of competitively priced home and personal loans, credit cards and deposits, earning its place as Australia's Best Bank for the third year in a row.
