ANZ rethinks ANZ Plus

Ian Rogers

A host of executive changes at ANZ around those responsible for the rollout of the ANZ Plus platform is getting the market talking.

ANZ’s new chief executive Nuno Matos “has quietly downgraded the bank’s glamour technology project” The Australian reported on Saturday.

“Matos is slowing the rollout, and, critically, has put the project under review.”

In recent weeks, Matos has told ANZ staff he was prioritising the integration of Suncorp, “particularly moving Suncorp Bank customers across to ANZ” The Australian reports.

“To speed this up, all the account details and data history of Suncorp customers will now move across to the old Classic platform,

although at the ‘front-end’ customers will see the ANZ Plus app. 
“Still, it’s at the all-important back-end where ANZ Plus promised to deliver, but has now been left out of the picture.”
