Addressing key aggregation groups at a function in Sydney on Tuesday, the lender's general manager intermediary distribution Steven Heavey reinforced the message that St George was back in the market.
“Over the last 18 months St George paired back on lending but we are now looking to re-engage and support brokers," he said.
“St George has one of the best product ranges on the market and we want to be high up on brokers shopping list.
“We account for 14 per cent of the market in New South Wales and we’re the second largest retail bank I’d like to see this reflected in volumes through the broker channel."
Mr Heavey said that St George is committed to winning greater broker support by improving the bank’s third party offering.
“We want to make it easier for brokers to do business with us by continuing to invest in the broker channel with initiatives such as online broker accreditation."
