A range of immediate financial support measures are available for ANZ customers affected by the floods in north Western Australia, including:
- Short-term payment relief on home loans, credit cards, personal loans and some business loans (we may still charge you interest during that period)
- Waiving fees for restructuring business loans
- Waiving fees for accessing term deposits early
ANZ General Manager Western Australia, Kathleen Jahour said: “We are thinking of those impacted by the flooding across the Kimberley and are here to help our customers who need our support.
“We have a range of measures that we can immediately put in place to support businesses and individuals, including short-term payment relief on a range of products, such as home loans and some business loans.”
