Customer-owned financial services company, Regional Australia Bank will support fintech ecosystem events and policy initiatives as the latest FinTech Australia ecosystem partner.

The company joins the ranks of Newcastle Permanent Building Society, IDEMIA, Google, eftpos, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Mastercard, EY, Facebook, many of whom signed partnerships with FinTech Australia within the past 12 months.

“Our partnership program allows us to continue to grow our support services for the Australian fintech ecosystem, which at last count is over 700 companies strong,” FinTech Australia CEO Rebecca Schot-Guppy said.

“We’re excited for the regional lens and perspective Regional Australia Bank will bring to our community offering and our policy work.”

Regional Australia Bank Chief Digital Officer Rob Hale said “Our established relationships with Fintech Australia members including Basiq, Douugh, Cloud case, and more recently Biza, have already created incredible strategic value for us and our customers.

“The opportunity to formalise our connection with Australian Fintech through this partnership is a natural progression, and something we’re really excited about.

“We now also look forward to being able to add our ‘fintech-friendly bank’ voice to important ongoing policy consultation work, particularly in the field of open data and the Consumer Data Right.”

The FinTech Australia partnership program helps embed these companies within the fintech ecosystem and networks them with its key players.
