  • DEBIT INTERCHANGE REFORM SUBMISSION September 2002
    NATIONAL AUSTRALIA BANK DEBIT INTERCHANGE REFORM SUBMISSION September 2002 Page 1 of 5 NATIONAL AUSTRALIA BANK - DEBIT INTERCHANGE REFORM SUBMISSION Sep 02 1. Introduction The National fully supports the need for reform of debit card interchange and has been an active participant in the Eftpos Industry Working Group (EIWG) formed at the behest of the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA). We believe that the objective of this reform should be to achieve a simpler more efficient and transparent pricing regime. We agree with the view expressed by the RBA and Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) in their paper A Study of Interchange Fees and Access (“the Joint Study”) that the debit card network in Australia no longer needs an interchange fee. Furthermore we have always been of the opinion that there should be simultaneous credit card and debit card reform. This submission set out the background to the reform process, the options for reform and our views on it in more detail together with their rationale. It is made on the basis that credit reform occurs as per the access regime and standards issued by the RBA. The National reserves its position in relation to making further submissions on various matters raised both in this submission itself, and in general in relation to the overall progress of the RBA’s program of regulation. 2. Reform Process Background On February 19th 2002 the Reserve Bank of Australia convened a meeting of financial and selected other institutions that were major participants in the debit card network. At that meeting the RBA questioned participants that “whether an interchange fee is needed at all, given that some successful Eftpos systems, such as those in Canada and the Netherlands, operate without an interchange fee”1.

Accessible colours - a brighter palette that’s easier for those with visual impairments to view and read info online.

In the meantime, if you see our old logo on a document, while our new logo is on an email – don't worry, it's still us!

    Article No. 8641 Available on www.roymorgan.com Link to Roy Morgan Profiles Monday, 15 February 2021 ING home loan customers once again the most satisfied with their bank, followed by Bendigo, Bankwest and ME Bank New financial data from Roy Morgan shows ING not only retained its position at the top of banking customer satisfaction ratings among home loan customers, it increased an already exceptional score of 94.4% in November 2020 to 95.1% in December. This is up 5.8% on a year earlier (89.3% in December 2019). In fact, Australia’s top 12 banks collectively increased their home loan customer satisfaction from 74% in December 2019 to 79.5% a year later. E The data covers July to December 2020. This period began with more than Australian 436,000 home loans deferred, as customers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic took an initial payment pause of up to six months, and ended with all but around 100,000 of these borrowers having resumed payments. Following leader ING is Bendigo Bank, with a home loan customer satisfaction rating of 88.1% (a lift from 83.3% a year earlier). Next are Bankwest and ME Bank, equal on 88% each. For Bankwest this is a jump up from its rating of 77.1% a year earlier, however ME Bank actually fell from a 91.4% satisfaction rating. CBA once again has the highest home loan customer satisfaction among the big four banks, with a rating of 80%. Total home loan customer satisfaction with the big four banks as a group is 77.6%.
