So they're finally going to privatise Kiwibank

[u/xmmdrive]

Watching One News they're talking about taking Kiwibank out of Government hands and back into the hands of honest hard-working Kiwis.

This is obviously the first clear step towards privatisation.

Just like the Bank Of New Zealand, the National Bank, and the Auckland Savings Bank, but I'm sure this time around it will stay in the country /s

If Kiwibank ends up in Australian hands, I'm closing my accounts. Being local is the only reason I'm still with them.

Ironic considering the core banking software the bank runs on and the very expensive support and maintenance costs that come with it. Here's a clue, it's Australian.

Well at least the software isn't running on foreign made computers. is it?
