ABOUT THE NATIONAL
We are an international financial services organisation that provides a comprehensive and integrated range of financial products and services. Our history traces back to the establishment of The National Bank of Australasia in 1858.
On August 11, 2004, the Group announced it would be structured around three regional businesses: Australia, Europe and New Zealand. These regions include the retail bank brands, Wealth Management and the transactional and custodial operations of the former Corporate & Institutional Banking division. In addition, we have a global business in Institutional Markets & Services, which focuses on debt, risk management and investment products for corporate and institutional customers. The new structure will take effect during the 2005 year.
Our retail bank brands are the National Australia Bank (Australia), Bank of New Zealand (New Zealand), Yorkshire Bank, Clydesdale Bank (United Kingdom), Northern Bank (Northern Ireland) and National Irish Bank (Republic of Ireland).
