Finder’s Banking Awards Methodology

Here's how we determined the winners of Finder's Banking Awards in 2024.

What are the Finder Banking Awards?

Finder's Banking Awards are part of the annual Finder Awards program. We evaluate the rates, fees and conditions of hundreds of savings accounts, transaction accounts and term deposits to find our award winners.

🧪 Methodology: How we chose our Finder Award Winners

Our team of expert analysts use an objective rating system to determine our award winners.

  • We examined 12 months of data for each product, with scores weighted towards more recent months.
  • We excluded any accounts that are only available to a certain subset of customers based on location.
  • We excluded any restricted accounts.
