Westpac Banking Corporation is an Australian-incorporated bank whose New Zealand branch provides foreign-exchange services and whose FMA record shows active derivatives-issuer licence FSP36250. Westpac's Australian eFX material describes institutional execution via Online FX and external venues including FXALL, 360T, Currenex and Bloomberg, with 24-hour, 5.5-day execution coverage.
