National Australia Bank

Company Overview

National Australia Bank is an Australian multinational banking and financial services group headquartered on Bourke Street in Melbourne, Victoria. The bank in its present form was created by the 1982 merger of the National Bank of Australasia, established in Melbourne in 1858, and the Commercial Banking Company of Sydney, established in 1834. The merged entity was first named the National Commercial Banking Corporation of Australia and later adopted the National Australia Bank name.

The group is one of Australia four major banks and provides retail, business, corporate and institutional banking alongside wealth and markets services. It is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange under the ticker NAB and is widely held, with no controlling parent.

National Australia Bank reported its 2026 half year results on 4 May 2026, posting cash earnings of 3,558 million Australian dollars excluding a software capitalisation policy change, and declaring an interim dividend of 85 cents per share. The result came in below analyst expectations, with software costs and higher credit provisions cited as the principal drags. Andrew Irvine serves as chief executive.
