Brand analysis

Westpac Banking Corporation has dropped to 11th this wave in the Financial Services in Australia table.

Its Overall Effort Score of 55 remains the same as the past two previous waves, but Macquarie’s higher score in Q2 2025 has pushed Westpac down a place.

Similarly, three out of four of the pillars remain the same wave on wave, but a -1 drop in Style of Communication indicates an area of focus for the brand if it wishes to improve its Overall Effort Score.

Westpac has committed AU$600m to revamp its technology infrastructure with customer service the focus. Will this pay off for Customer Effort? Come back next wave to find out.
