ANZ has been named Best Local Private Bank – Australia, at the 2009 Euromoney Private Bank Awards, announced last Friday.

ANZ Managing Director, Private Bank, Catherine McDowell, said: “It is a great privilege to win this award and reflects the commitment of our team to always focus on the total financial needs of our clients.
“Our staff are always working with our clients to help better meet their needs, especially given the constantly changing economic environment. We have a targeted strategy to grow in Asia and this award helps raise our profile across our key geographies” Ms McDowell said.
In addition to its award as Best Local Private Bank – Australia, ANZ was also voted number one in Australia for:
