Page 1 of 24 Mozo Experts Choice Awards The Mozo Experts Choice Awards are an initiative from Mozo that recognises Australia’s best value financial products and helps Australians to save money by choosing better products. The Mozo Experts Choice Awards are designed to complement the popular Mozo People’s Choice Awards, which are voted by customers and recognise banking and insurance institutions with the highest customer satisfaction levels. For the Mozo Experts Choice Awards Gold medals are awarded to the top 10% of products that meet the selection criteria in each awards category. A maximum of 10 individual products are awarded gold in each category. Award recipients are listed in alphabetical order, the Mozo Experts Choice Awards are awarded to each product equally and the list of winners is not ranked in any other way. Further information about our awards methodology can be found below. What Deposit Account products do we consider? Mozo considered at call savings accounts, transaction focused bank accounts, and fixed term deposits. Awards have been awarded for each of these product types. In carrying out the Mozo Experts Choice Deposit Awards research report we analysed 376 deposit products from 72 Australian providers based on data contained in Mozo’s product database as at 31 December 2015. Rates, fees and features in Mozo’s database have been confirmed as correct between 4th December 2015 and 31st December 2015 by contacting the relevant providers or from publically available sources. These awards take into account interest rates at 3 dates in 2015: 31 October, 30 November, and 31 December. Savings Account and Term Deposit Products must have been consistently available at each of those dates to be included in the awards. We aim to include most products in the market in each category of the Mozo Experts Choice Awards. However, not every product on the market will be included in our review, nor is every feature compared that may be relevant to you.

Method: To qualify for these awards the savings account must: • be available for adults; • have no monthly service fee; • allow unlimited free internet transactions; • accounts requiring a linked account to transfer funds must be able to nominate a bank account at any institution ; and • have no notice period to withdraw funds. Base, Introductory Bonus, and Ongoing Bonus rates that apply for each account for a deposit amount of $10,000 were extracted at the end of October, November and December 2015. For the Base and Ongoing Bonus categories the rates relevant to each category at each of the 3 dates were averaged. For the Introductory rate category the effective annual rate that would apply in the first year was calculated at each of the 3 dates and these were averaged. Where different interest rates apply for different portions of the account balance the effective rate for $10,000 was calculated to determine ranking. While conditions for earning Ongoing Bonus rates vary, we assumed that those conditions were met for each account. Conditional Ongoing Bonus rates were not taken into account in the Introductory rate category. The top 10 products, to a maximum of 10% of all products considered, were given awards in each category.

  • 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.

We recognise the leading products with the Mozo Experts Choice Awards. ● For product providers, a Mozo Experts Choice Award is a thoroughly researched third-party endorsement of their product. ● For consumers, the Mozo Experts Choice Awards badge is a sign that a product is among the leaders in the market, and is worthy of consideration.

  • A Bank a Bank Is a Financial Institution That Largely Deals with Deposits and Loans for a Variety of Reasons Such a Commercial Or Personal
    A Bank A bank is a financial institution that largely deals with deposits and loans for a variety of reasons such a commercial or personal. The difference between a bank, an ADI, credit union, building society, and mutual bank ADI is an authorised deposit taking situation. An institution must be accredited to accept deposits from the public. Credit Union A credit union is a member-owned financial cooperative, controlled by its members credit at competitive rates as well as other financial services. Credit institutions are created, owned and operated by their participants. As such, they are not-for-profit enterprises that enjoy tax-exempt status. Building Society a type of financial institution that provides banking and other financial services to its members. Building societies resemble credit unions. They are similar to credit unions and savings and loan institutions, but their members are typically those in construction trades, real estate, or co-op housing. Mutual Bank A mutual savings bank is a financial institution chartered by a central or regional government, without capital stock, that is owned by its members who subscribe to a common fund. Finance and the Finance Industry Finance is a broad term that describes activities associated with banking, leverage or debt, credit, capital markets, money, and investments. Basically, finance represents money management and the process of acquiring needed funds. Finance also encompasses the oversight, creation, and study of money, banking, credit, investments, assets, and liabilities that make up financial systems.
