While The Rock has a proud history dating back to 1967 and has been a part of the MyState Group since 2011, it had continued to operate under its own brand.

Since 2011 we’ve been significantly investing in our technology platforms and services, carefully transitioning The Rock’s banking systems before being able to make the final step to bring the brand under the MyState Bank umbrella.

Rest assured, your account details won't change and your debits and credits will continue to work as they do today.

From 1 December 2018 you will see the following changes:

• your local branch online services will be branded MyState Bank.
• you will need to download the MyState Bank app which will have additional features, such as secure fingerprint login. You will also have greater control of your money and the ability to manage your daily transfer limits and view your statements online. To download the MyState Bank app visit either the App Store or Play Store™ and search MyState Bank.
• you'll enjoy the convenience of being able to apply for and open new transaction, term deposit and loan accounts online.
• to make life simple, you'll also receive one consolidated statement that covers all your accounts.
• if you have a loan account, the way you do redraws will be much easier. Only one person will be required to approve a loan redraw. If you don't want it to happen, please let us know.

MyState Limited (MYS) is the non-operating holding company of a diversified financial services group listed on the ASX and is a leading provider of banking, trustee and wealth management services to customers across the country through our retail brands - MyState Bank, The Rock and Tasmanian Perpetual Trustees.

On 30 September 2015 MyState Bank received regulatory approval to fully transfer all of the business undertakings of The Rock into MyState Bank Limited. MyState Bank now operates under its own name, and the trading name "The Rock - A division of MyState Bank Limited".
