Proposed Merger
In 2026, we’ll ask the members of Teachers Mutual Bank Limited to vote on our proposal to merge with Australian Mutual Bank to create one of Australia’s largest member-owned banks. We’ll update this page as we have new information to keep you informed. |
Creating a stronger bank
In bringing our two trusted banks together, we’ll create one of Australia’s largest member-owned banks with $13.4 billion in total assets, approximately 300,000 members, 750 employees and an expanded branch footprint.
Combining our strengths will create a stronger, future-ready bank that can continue to be a challenger in the Australian banking sector, while remaining small enough to keep the personalised service we know our members love.
Merging our financially strong and trusted banks together will create a more resilient bank while providing a platform for increased investment in customer service, competitive financial products, and enhanced safety and security, and digital banking services.
As a Merged Bank, we’ll remain committed to supporting the industries and communities that support us, through sponsorships, scholarships and other community partnerships.
Together, we’ll be a stronger, more resilient member-owned bank.
