Following the announcement on 21 August 2020 of Westpac’s intention to sell its Vendor Finance business to Angle Finance1, Westpac Group today announced it has completed the sale.
 

The sale has a negligible impact on Westpac’s balance sheet and capital ratios. A small accounting loss was recognised in FY20.
 

Chief Executive, Specialist Businesses & Group Strategy, Jason Yetton, said “Westpac is pleased to have successfully executed the transaction which will help Australian businesses continue to finance small ticket equipment loans to grow and be successful and help us become a simpler bank.”
