ANZ has agreed to settle a class action initiated by Slater & Gordon in 2020. The lawsuit involves several parties, including ANZ, concerning the sale of three consumer credit insurance products.

ANZ will contribute $42 million towards the settlement. This amount is covered by provisions held as of September 30, 2022. The settlement is made without an admission of liability and awaits court approval.
