Dow Jones Description

Bendigo Bank operates some 350 branches, primarily in Victoria and Queensland. This includes 190+ Community Bank branches. The bank's national headquarters are in the city of Bendigo, and it has a regional headquarters in the Melbourne Docklands. "Community Bank" is an innovative franchise program in which the local community owns and operates a Bendigo Bank branch (which is separately incorporated), and Bendigo Bank provides all the banking infrastructure and support. The community company and Bendigo Bank share all branch revenue with whatever is left over after the company pays its branch running costs remaining as profit. The program was a response to a massive closure of bank branches in rural areas. Bendigo Bank has since extended the program to areas that have bank service.
