banking PARTNERSHIP

IBA has partnered with Bank Australia to help customers transition to and access the benefits of mainstream finance.

Refinancing with another lender, or a split loan (where part of the loan is given by another lender) also frees up IBA’s capital and enables us to help even more Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families to make home ownership a reality.

How can IBA’s partnership with Bank Australia help me?

This collaborative partnership enables customers to access benefits* of mainstream finance, including:

  • Competitive interest rates
  • Wider range of banking products and features (e.g. offset accounts, redraw facilities, fixed interest rates, etc.)
  • Potential to consolidate other debts and/or obtain additional finance
  • Access to online banking and mortgage balances.

Bank Australia wants to build strong and respectful relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, communities and businesses. They’ve made their banking products more accessible to Indigenous Australians to support your financial wellbeing and economic independence.

Their supportive team of dedicated banking professionals will provide you with personal customer service. They’ll help you navigate the application process, including support with any paperwork to help make the process easier.
