Westpac Bank is the second-largest of Australia’s four major banks. The bank provides a range of banking and financial services to retail and business customers, including mortgages, consumer finance, credit cards, business loans, and term deposits. Most nonbanking units have been divested, including general, life, and mortgage insurance.
Despite recent cuts, the cash rate is still much higher than before covid, a better environment for customer deposit funding banks to expand margins and drive higher return on equity.
Slow core earnings growth resurfaces because of low loan growth, margin compression, subdued wealth and markets income, lower banking fee income.
