NAB

We all know National Australia Bank (NAB) as one of the big four Australian banks. However, what you may not realise is that NAB has only been known by its current name since 1981.

Prior to this, the bank traded as the National Bank of Australasia Limited, before merging with the Commercial Banking Company of Sydney Limited.

Following the merger, this top four bank changed its name to the National Australia Bank.

NAB operates internationally and provides a comprehensive range of banking and financial services throughout Australia, New Zealand Asia and the United Kingdom.

The organisation operates under five business segments: Business Banking (commercial banking services), Personal Banking (retail banking services), Wholesale Banking (global markets and treasury), NAB Wealth (investments, insurance and financial advice) and NZ Banking (UK banking services).

NAB is one of the more competitive banks in the sector, having expanded its ATM network, removed many fees and maintained low standard variable home loan rates.

Its range of financial products including home loans, credit cards, personal loans and savings accounts compare well with its peers. It also offers customers a range of tools and calculators to help manage their accounts.

NAB has over 30,000 employees, 9 million customers and can be found in over 900 locations around the globe serving over 12 million customers.

Like all banks, all deposits of up to $250,000 is protected as a part of the Australian Government guarantee.
