FST Media yesterday published a rare interview with Anne Weatherston, chief information officer at ANZ, which sheds almost no light on information technology projects and plans at the bank.
However, it provided two small insights: the executive committee has demanding expectations of Weatherston's business unit, and the bank is working on an improved internet banking product that will cover all bank products held by a customer, not just conventional bank accounts.
Aspects of critical reviews of head office systems, prepared by Ernst & Young and Accenture over the last two years, have featured in
The Australian over the last two weeks, but these were not followed up by FST.
ANZ is still to confirm a date for a planned investor briefing on its IT strategy - a briefing foreshadowed at the bank's regular profit briefing in early May.
