The following is the list of banks in Australia, as well as restricted authorised deposit-taking institutions (ADI), [1] credit unions and subsidiaries and branches of foreign banks in Australia. Financial institutions in Australia are supervised by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) as authorised deposit-taking institutions (ADI) under the Banking Act 1959 (Cth), as at 2 August 2017. [2]
The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) is Australia's central bank and banknote issuing authority. It has had this role since 14 January 1960, when the Reserve Bank Act 1959 removed the central banking functions from the Commonwealth Bank. [3] The bank's main policy role is to control inflation levels within a target range of 2–3%, by controlling the unemployment rate according to the 'non-accelerating inflation rate of unemployment' (NAIRU) by controlling the official cash rate.
Authorised Deposit-taking Institutions (ADIs) are corporations authorised to conduct banking business in Australia; however, the Financial Claims Scheme (FCS) guarantee applies exclusively to banks, building societies, and credit unions, and does not cover all ADI categories such as payment facilities. [4]
According to APRA statistics as of 11 December 2025, there are 71 Australian-owned ADIs, along with seven foreign-owned banks that are locally incorporated in Australia. It is worth noting that several of these banking groups operate under multiple brand names. [5]

| 3 | Australia and New Zealand Banking Group BIG4 | Melbourne | 1835 | ANZBAU3M |
| Australia and New Zealand Banking Group (ANZ) was officially formed in 1970 through the then-largest bank merger in Australian history, combining the Australia and New Zealand Bank (itself formed by the 1951 merger of the Bank of Australasia and Union Bank of Australia) with the English, Scottish & Australian Bank (ES&A). ANZ has aggressively expanded its footprint, particularly in New Zealand, where it acquired the government-owned PostBank in 1989 and, most significantly, the National Bank of New Zealand in 2003 from Lloyds TSB. While the National Bank brand was initially retained, it was retired in 2012, unifying operations under the ANZ brand. Continuing its strategy of growth through acquisition, ANZ recently strengthened its domestic position by acquiring Suncorp Bank in 2024, specifically targeting its mortgage and deposit base in Queensland. | ||||

| Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA), established in 1911 as a government-owned bank, is the nation's largest financial institution and the only one of the "Big Four" to have been fully privatized (a process completed in 1996). While CBA grew significantly through earlier mergers, such as acquiring the State Bank of Victoria in 1991, its most pivotal modern expansion occurred during the Global Financial Crisis in 2008. Taking advantage of market volatility, CBA acquired Bankwest (the Bank of Western Australia) from the distressed UK lender HBOS for A$2.1 billion. This acquisition cemented CBA market dominance in Western Australia, allowing Bankwest to operate as a distinct regional brand until its strategic transition in 2024 to become a digital-only division within the group. | ||||

| Macquarie Group originated in 1969 as Hill Samuel Australia, the local subsidiary of a UK merchant bank - Hill Samuel & Co, before obtaining a full Australian banking license and rebranding to Macquarie Bank in 1985. Unlike the retail-focused "Big Four," Macquarie built its reputation as a global leader in infrastructure asset management and investment banking (often dubbed the "Millionaire's Factory"). A pivotal moment in its domestic history was the 1999 acquisition of the investment banking assets of Bankers Trust Australia, which eliminated a key rival and solidified its local dominance. Internationally, Macquarie aggressively expanded its funds management capabilities, most notably through the acquisition of US-based Delaware Investments in 2010 and Waddell & Reed in 2021, transforming it into a top-tier global asset manager. | ||||

| National Australia Bank (NAB) was formed in 1982 through the merger of the National Bank of Australasia and the Commercial Banking Company of Sydney. Historically, NAB pursued an aggressive international expansion strategy, most notably in the United Kingdom where it acquired Clydesdale Bank (1987) and Yorkshire Bank (1990). However, following a strategic shift to refocus on its core domestic franchise, NAB fully divested its UK operations in 2016 through the demerger of CYBG (now Virgin Money UK). In the domestic digital market, NAB launched UBank in 2008 as a branchless division. This digital presence was significantly upgraded in 2021 when NAB acquired the neobank 86 400 for approximately A$220 million, merging it with UBank to leverage 86 400’s modern technology stack while retiring the neobank's brand. | ||||

| Following the completion of its acquisition of Suncorp Bank in July 2024 [6] , ANZ Group (ANZBGL) committed to maintaining the Suncorp brand for at least five to seven years and operating the bank as a stand-alone entity under its own ADI license, with plans to eventually surrender the license and fully integrate the business into the ANZBGL’s ADI license [7] . | ||||

| Westpac Banking Corporation, established in 1817 as the Bank of New South Wales (Australia first bank), cemented its position as one of the "Big Four" through a strategic history of acquisitions that created a multi-brand banking group. After rebranding to Westpac in 1982, the corporation significantly expanded its regional footprint by acquiring the Bank of Melbourne in 1997. This was followed by a major merger with St. George Bank in 2008, a deal that also secured ownership of BankSA (which St. George had acquired in 1997), effectively bringing these major regional brands under the singular Westpac Group umbrella while retaining their local identities. | ||||

| Local ADIs ranked by CET1 capital (as of September 2025) | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Notes: Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital, as defined under the Basel III framework, represents the highest quality and most loss-absorbing form of a bank’s capital, consisting mainly of common shares and retained earnings; unlike total assets, which indicate the size of a bank’s balance sheet, CET1 reflects its core financial strength and is widely regarded as the most reliable measure of a bank’s solvency and resilience under stress. | |||

The following table ranks banking entities and financial groups in Australia by total resident assets, based on statistics released by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) as of September 2025. [12] While this dataset specifically focuses on assets held by Australian residents and excludes non-resident holdings, the figures remain a close proxy for the total balance sheet of each institution. This correlation is due to Australia status as a primarily domestic-focused market rather than a major offshore financial hub; consequently, for the vast majority of these banks, resident assets comprise the bulk of their global operations, although the "Big Four" banks also hold significant assets in New Zealand.
