AUSTRALIA’S CommBank has opened its doors in Nauru, replacing Bendigo, which provided services on the island. CommBank said it would prioritise support to help local businesses transition smoothly between banks, and ensure continued access to cash and merchant services. The bank predicted longer than usual wait times during the transition, and asked customers for patience. “For personal customers, those who need to urgently move from Bendigo are encouraged to visit now, while others who can continue banking with Bendigo for the time being are asked to wait a little longer to ease demand,” the bank said in a statement.
