financial services organisation through excelling in customer service. To
achieve this, we are doing things differently. This determination to be
different has been highlighted by our success in winning a number of recent
awards.

The Commonwealth Bank Third Party Banking team is extremely proud to have won

internal stakeholders, in working together as one team to ensure 'Excellence in

Australia's Best Online Bank
Canstar Cannex named us the winner of their first Best Online Banking
award. The award criteria focussed predominantly on three main areas -
internet banking (everything on the secure side), website (the public, unsecure
side), and online applications (both from the secure and unsecure side), as
well as the level of integration of these platforms. The Canstar Cannex
acknowledged our determination to place the customer at the centre of
everything:
"The Commonwealth has invested a lot of time and money over the past
few years to develop a customer-friendly website, both for the general public
and existing customers. Our research and road test confirms the bank is on the
right track. We were particularly impressed with the efforts Commonwealth
Bank has gone to in providing a streamlined online banking experience for
customers. The level of information available, the ability to manage a wide
variety of banking needs, and the ability to apply for new products directly
from the secure online banking login were all outstanding" (Canstar
