HBOS Australia, one of Australia's fastest growing financial services institutions has outgrown its premises in South Australia after tripling its market share growth over the past two years.
The group, which comprises BankWest and equipment finance provider Capital Finance, has moved to the new KPMG building in Pirie Street.
Peter Panas, South Australian State Manager for HBOS Australia said the relocation is an indication of the success of the HBOS Australia growth strategy.
"We are determined to grow our business and become a major financial services provider in Australia. We are focused on providing real banking and finance alternatives to Australians with value for money products and outstanding service.
"We have been in Adelaide through our BankWest business for more than 15 years and have helped many South Australian businesses grow and flourish. Our point of difference is on building specialised understanding of different sectors and treating each business individually. Being part of HBOS Australia means we can offer diversified finance options to our customers," Mr Panas said.
The larger premises will allow HBOS Australia to accommodate more staff to continue to meet the needs of its growing customer base. Over the last two years HBOS Australia has grown from 25 BankWest representatives to more than 80 HBOS Australia staff.
