By GlobalData“I think we had the runs on the board, given our extensive relationships across more than 60 lenders in Australia, as well as our broker group partnerships,” said NextGen Head of Lender Partnerships Mike Ponsonby
The deal also enables BankVic to expand its footprint in the broker market. Product diversification will also be important and NextGen will support personal lending and car finance as well.
“It’s a very exciting time for mutual banks who really want to transform their capabilities that they offer their customers and the processes they have,” Ponsonby said.
“BankVic will be well placed for open banking enablement in 2023. It really wants to future-proof the business, to modernise and re-think the way it does things.”
Known as the bank for police, emergency and health workers, BankVic rebranded from Police Credit Cooperative in 2013.
Founded in 1974, BankVic serves 120,000 members and has A$3bn in assets.
