Australian Shareholder Privilege Package 2006
Print
print

 

During a recent review of the Shareholder Privilege Package we found that only a small number of our eligible shareholders are using these product offers. Due to the high cost to all our shareholders to provide the privilege package to so few users, the current Shareholder Privilege Package will be discontinued, effective 30 March 2007. However, we will continue to honour most of the ongoing product offers for eligible shareholders who are currently using them.

For eligible shareholders currently using the product offers
For shareholders who are currently using the package, benefits on facilities in place as at 30 March 2007 will continue until further notice, with the exception of bank cheques and travellers cheques. Discounts on bank cheques and travellers cheques will now only be available to eligible shareholders who hold a transaction or savings account with ANZ as at 30 March 2007. To obtain the discounts on bank cheques and travellers cheques, you will need to retain your 2006 Shareholder card and present it to branch staff.

These shareholder benefits will continue to apply while you hold more than 300 ANZ shares, until further notice from ANZ. More information about the previous offers provided under the package is included below.

For shareholders not currently using the product offers
If you are not currently using shareholder product offers, you will not be affected by this change.

To find out more about the removal you can see the answers to some frequently asked questions, or you can call 1800 269 008. For general enquiries contact ANZ Investor Relations (03) 9273 6466 or ANZ Share Registry 1800 11 33 99.
