Since announcing a growth strategy in mid-2021, the home loan portfolio and customer deposits have increased by 46% and 33% respectively and the Board remains committed to the strategic intent of profitably growing the company's share of the market. The business temporarily slowed home lending growth in FY24, whilst continuing to invest into strategic priorities including digital, data, cyber and scam prevention, and plans to accelerate growth as market conditions and returns become more favourable and following the successful launch of the new internet banking platform and mobile app in early July 2024.
