AddressOur story
Our journey to transform BEN into and bigger, better, stronger, and more impactful business is well underway. Our Transformation will radicallysimplify our business, modernise our technology and digitise our customer journeys,supporting our people to provide exceptional service and relevant solutions to meet customer needs.
Historically BEN Business Banking and Rural Bank have existed as two entirely separate businesses, with Rural previously existing as a separate banking organisation. Since 2019 activity has gradually been underway to bring the two businesses together into a consolidated Business & Agri (Rural) division of BEN.
During 2024 the formal migration will be undertaken to move Rural across to BEN products, platforms, policies, and processes. To support this consolidation, and the future growth of the combined Business & Agri division, there is also the introduction of a new consolidated CRM and end-to-end product origination platform happening simultaneously.
From 2025 onwards Business & Agri will look to evolve and further build out its new consolidated ecosystem, leveraging modern release and change methods to accelerate features and capabilities that will benefit customers and bankers.
