Supporting our community's local prosperity

To be sustainable, regional Australia needs

• infrastructure,
• opportunities and
• capital.

The key to all three is a community desire to make a change and the commitment to see it through.

During the 1990s when the ‘big four’ banks closed over 2,000 branches, the Bendigo Bank developed its Community Bank^® model. Bendigo Bank now provides the banking systems for over 210 community-owned banks all over Australia.

Like the banking model, a Community Telco^TM pools local telecommunications demand, enabling the community to have some influence in the infrastructure investment decisions of suppliers.

Regional businesses with the same quality of voice and data services as their metropolitan counterparts can be more competitive on a broader scale.

These successful regional businesses also generate employment and contribute to a thriving local economy, which makes that region an even more attractive investment destination.

The Community Telco group also has the full support and backing of Community Telco Australia and the Bendigo and Adelaide Bank Group, providing processes, systems, and significant buying power to benefit our own local businesses and communities.
