As a unique specialist pure play SME business lender, we are committed to the craft of SME banking to support the businesses that represent the engine room of the Australian economy.
Our purpose is simple – to be the most trusted SME business bank in Australia. Not the biggest, but the best, with a vision of building a world class SME business bank.
Our core SME lending franchise is built on the belief that each SME is unique, and that each deserves a relationship with their bank that is built on a deep understanding of their business, professionalism, trust and exceptional customer service – something that has been lacking in the banking industry for decades.
We have long felt that SMEs were being left behind or taken for granted by the rest of the industry that prioritised mortgage lending, industrialised their operating models and fundamentally diminished their relationship proposition in a market with no real competition.
We are proud to be led by a deeply experienced management team with high levels of equity ownership across the Company, which underpins a strong owner’s mindset and a challenger culture.
