ANZ chief executive Shayne Elliott says he is focused on migrating Suncorp’s banking customers onto his own systems, promising the integration of the two businesses will be different to Westpac’s bungled efforts to bring in St George – which has run for more than a decade.
Mr Elliott, in an interview, said ANZ’s efforts would be different to Westpac’s because it was a “migration” – not an integration – and that the bank didn’t “want any of Suncorp’s systems” after the $4.9 billion transaction.
