00:00We know things aren't easy for many Australians and there's a real disconnect between what
00:04the numbers say about the economy and how people are feeling in everyday life.
00:08What this result shows is that more customers are choosing to bank with us, driving growth
00:14across the group.
00:15That strength matters because it allows us to keep investing in serving customers, keeping
00:20them safe and backing businesses and communities across the country.
00:25The Australian economy has proven more resilient than many expected.
00:28Growth has picked up, households are spending again and investment, particularly in AI
00:33and energy, is increasing, even in a volatile global environment.
00:38At the same time, strong demand and a tight labour market mean inflation pressure has returned,
00:44so supporting the financial resilience of households really matters.
