Anthony Miller makes first official visit to Papua New Guinea as Westpac Group CEO

Mr Miller will meet with Westpac PNG customers and employees in Port Moresby and Lae.

The visit reaffirms Westpac’s long-standing commitment to PNG and the Pacific, where the bank is focused on digital innovation and accessibility for its customers in the region.

“Papua New Guinea is an important market for Westpac, and it’s a privilege to spend time with our people, partners and customers here.  We have a great role to play in this very important region with our ability to be a strong, stable and trusted financial partner in the Pacific,” Mr Miller said.

Although this is his first visit as Westpac Group CEO, Mr Miller is no stranger to Papua New Guinea, having visited previously both professionally and personally.

Westpac PNG Chief Executive, Andrew Cairns, said Mr Miller’s visit highlights Westpac Group’s confidence in the PNG market and its commitment to delivering better banking experiences.

“Mr Miller’s visit comes at a pivotal time as Westpac PNG focuses on sustainable growth, community engagement, and strong governance aligned with Papua New Guinea’s national development goals.

For more than 115 years, Westpac PNG has been a trusted part of the local community, and we are proud to build on this as we work together toward a strong, inclusive future while delivering a premium banking service,” Mr Cairns said.
