Our Story

Belong to a bank that cares

For more than 175 years, Australian Unity has been motivated by good, driven by a singular goal: to enhance the wellbeing of Australians.

Whether that’s health, retirement or financial wellbeing, we’ve given millions of Australians access to the care, advice and support they need to set themselves up for a richer life through services like healthcare, insurance, financial management and retirement living.

It makes good sense to support Australians achieve financial wellbeing by also offering a great range of banking products and services.

Banking for good - a genuine alternative to the big banks

A good bank benefits everyone, whether it is customers or the community and as a mutual organisation we reinvest our profits back into benefiting our customers not shareholders. This means we can offer competitive interest rates, personalised service, and innovative products.

Doing good for customers and the community

We keep jobs in Australia with our local service centre and support charities with 1% of our profits going to the Australian Unity foundation.

Being a bank for good means we are focused on listening to our customers’ needs and providing a personalised service. It also means understanding that life sometimes throws things at you and your bank should understand that. We offer things like the ability to apply for a home loan repayment pause when you’re on parental leave or have an unexpected illness because we know you’ve got to take the good with the bad.

Importantly, we understand how making the right financial decisions can impact positively on your life. When you bank with us, we’ll work with you, so you can feel confident in the choices you make for you and your family. Whether that’s getting a home loan that helps you afford private health insurance or improving your wellbeing by helping build your financial security.
