City of Melbourne Melbourne Financial Services Directory City of Melbourne Melbourne Financial Services Directory Melbourne has firmly established itself as a modern and dynamic 21st Century city and a major business and investment destination. In 2010, our finance and insurance sector boasted more than 900 establishments and employed around 60,000 people. And Melbourne is the dominant Australian location for superannuation and funds management with the sector worth around $400 billion – 40 per cent of the national market. Melbourne is also an international centre for financial services education and research with organisations such as the Australian Centre for Financial Studies and the Australian Institute of Superannuation Trustees, which is the principal advocate and peak representative body for the not-for-profit superannuation sector. This new directory lists Melbourne’s key financial service head offices, as well as organisations that have a regional presence in the city. This includes institutions and professional services across banks and mutual institutions, pension funds, brokers, asset and wealth managers, insurance, industry and professional associations and ancillary service providers. Melbourne has earned its formidable reputation as a major business and investment destination through a combination of hard work and innovation. We encourage you to explore the opportunities our great city offers. Robert Doyle Cr Kevin Louey Lord Mayor Chair, Economic Development portfolio City of Melbourne – Melbourne Financial Services Directory p.i City of Melbourne Melbourne Financial Services Directory The City of Melbourne commissioned the Australian Institute of Superannuation Trustees (AIST) to develop the Financial Services Directory. Research to develop the guide was conducted from May – December 2012. AIST apologises for any businesses omitted from the current version of the directory and it is likely that there will be further editions to amend any omissions. The quantitative desktop research, performed by AIST’s expert research staff, reviewed over 300 businesses who met the directory criteria to profile and highlight the capabilities of Melbourne organisations in the financial services sector to business and investors. Organisation selection was based on the location within City of Melbourne boundaries and alignment with City of Melbourne’s International Partner cities, office status IE: head offices were included, branches or sub offices were not, and any major financial institutions head offices which were not found in the boundaries of City of Melbourne municipality. The City of Melbourne would like to acknowledge the Victorian Government for providing guidance about the content in this directory.

A bank is an organisation that provides deposit and lending products to clients and is generally run for the benefit of their shareholders. A building society is similar to a bank in that they also provide banking services to clients; however where they differ is that they are generally not-forprofit organisations run for the benefit of their members. In Australia building societies are required to be incorporated. A credit union is similar to a building society and profits returned to clients. The major organisations have regional offices in Melbourne, which provide services like home loans, credit cards, deposits, insurance, business banking and wealth management.
