Providing convenient access to branches and ATMs throughout metropolitan, regional and rural areas is an important part of our commitment to provide convenient and simple banking services.
Today, we have just under 1,300 branches and 4,084 ATMs worldwide, an increase of 39 ATMs over the past year.
In Australia and New Zealand, 180 of our branches operate with extended opening hours for the convenience of our customers, with many open later than 4pm on Thursday; later than 5pm on Friday, or open Saturday or Sunday.
Over 3,300 of our ATMs are now equipped with an audio-enabling feature to allow visually impaired customers to listen to an audio translation of information as it appears on the screen.
New ATMs also allow for wheelchair access with the screens and keypads a minimum distance from the ground. We avoid locations that have stairs-only access.
In New Zealand, ANZ and The National Bank were the first banks to introduce multilingual ATM s featuring Japanese, Korean, Chinese and English language options.
Across our Asia Pacific region, our ATMs are multilingual.

In Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific, our branch presence in 2011 is little different from 2010. Our branch presence has changed in Asia as a result of a review of our footprint post the RBS integration, to maximise ANZ's operations and efficiency across a number of Asian countries.
