Important Information About The Financial Claims Scheme

The Financial Claims Scheme (“FCS”) is a scheme administered by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (“APRA”) to protect depositors from potential loss due to the failure of institutions. It provides depositors with a guaranteed protection, up to a cap. As at the date of this PDS, the FCS applies to deposits only. It does not extend to prepaid card products (including the Card or any Available Balance held on the Card).

If ANZ fails:

Any Available Balance held on your Card will not be protected by the FCS; and
You may lose all or part of your Available Balance.

The risks associated with the Card may therefore be increased when you load or hold large amounts of money onto the Card.

For more information on the FCS, refer to: www.fcs.gov.au.
