NAB's Community Advisory Council (CAC) has released its second annual report on its activities. The CAC was formed in 2006 to ensure a greater level of response and accountability to the community from NAB and its management.
Chaired by World Vision Australia CEO Tim Costello, the CAC is a nine-member group made up of community leaders and NAB executives.
The role of the NAB Community Advisory Council is:
-To provide input into the community activities and approach of NAB in Australia.
-To receive reports from NAB on its community activities.
-To bring to the attention of NAB important community issues facing the bank.
-To provide feedback on how NAB is addressing community issues facing the bank.
-To report annually to the public on the activities of the Council.
In the past year the CAC has provided input on a range of key strategic community activities. This has focused on commitments to Indigenous Australia, NAB’s overall level of community investment and NAB’s ongoing support for microfinance. Significant progress has been made in these areas in the past year.
The Council has also had responsibility to look at areas of community concern with NAB’s activities. During the year this has predominantly focused on aspects of some banking products and access to services.
The CAC members are:
-Tim Costello (Chair) Chief Executive, World Vision Australia
-Ahmed Fahour Executive Director and CEO, NAB Australia
