BANKWEST

Founded in 1895 as the Agricultural Bank of Western Australia, Bankwest has a long history of serving Australian communities. It was acquired by the Commonwealth Bank of Australia in 2008. The bank provides a comprehensive range of financial products and services, including personal and business bank accounts, home loans, credit cards, personal loans, and insurance. In recent years, Bankwest has undergone a significant strategic shift, moving to become a digital-first bank by closing its east-coast branch network and transitioning its remaining Western Australian branches to the CBA brand, focusing on delivering services primarily through its online and mobile platforms.
