What are the Mozo Experts Choice Awards?
Now in their eleventh year, the Mozo Experts Choice Awards present an opportunity to highlight products in the market we believe offer great value to Australians.
In carrying out the Mozo Experts Choice Awards for Australia’s Best Banking 2024, we assessed 85 Authorised deposit taking institutions who won at least one banking Mozo Experts Choice Award in April 2023.
“There are a vast range of banks to pick from in Australia, and with so many options it can be very hard to figure out where you should do most of your banking,” said Mozo Experts Choice Awards Judge Peter Marshall.
“The Mozo judges work on finding the best banking products throughout each year looking at just one type of product at a time, then once a year they use that information to figure out which banks offer their customers the best deals overall, for everything from home loans, credit cards, personal loans, everyday bank accounts and savings accounts. So if you want to make sure you're getting a good deal, for all your banking needs, check out the winners of this year’s awards.”
For details on how we crunched the numbers and determined our winners, see the 2024 Mozo Experts Choice Australia’s Best Banking Awards methodology report.
