Bendigo Bank to absorb Delphi Bank brand but commits to keep supporting Greek community

Ten years after the acquisition of Delphi Bank by Bendigo and Adelaide Bank, the two banking providers have moved into a further merger of their services including those offered to Greek Australian clients of Delphi Bank.

In a statement to Neos Kosmos, a spokesperson from Bendigo Bank expressed the bank’s commitment to preserving and nourishing the relationships Delphi Bank has established with the Greek community.

“Bendigo and Adelaide Bank has owned and operated Delphi Bank – formerly Bank of Cyprus Australia – since February 2012. The Bank is proud of the links that have been fostered with the Greek-Australian community since the Bank’s inception and have continued under our ownership over the last decade,” the spokesperson told Neos Kosmos.

According to the spokesperson, as part of the migration, Delphi Bank customers were made aware that they were being moved to a more modern banking platform under the Bendigo Bank brand, earlier in the year.

“Delphi customers will continue to have access to the same business and personal bankers they have existing relationships with now,” the spokesperson stressed, explaining that Delphi Bank clients now have access to a broader range of Bendigo Bank branded products and services as well as over 450 branches operated by the Bank and its Community Bank partners.

“The Bank is strongly committed to supporting and nurturing ties with the Greek-Australian community into the future,” the spokesperson told Neos Kosmos in a written statement.

“The Bank will continue to serve the interests of Greek-Australians, as customers and as a community. Bendigo and Adelaide Bank’s unique purpose of feeding into the prosperity of the community, and not off it, is part of our DNA.”

“Bendigo and Adelaide Bank is committed to delivering world class banking experiences for all of its customers. Part of that pledge involves employing branch staff who represent the communities in which they operate. Retaining branch staff who have relevant language and cultural skills are among the attributes we value highly.”
