Description: An elderly woman, pushing a little basket on wheels, leaves the Westpac Bank incandescent with rage saying 'I have withdrawn my deposit to keep under my matress...' A billboard leaning against the wall of the bank reads 'Westpac boss on $5 million'. Refers to the news that George Frazis was paid A$4.39 million (NZ$5.65 million) for the year ended September 30 to head the bank's New Zealand operations. That was higher than the remuneration for CEOs of the largest listed companies, and New Zealand's largest company, dairy co-operative Fonterra. "We think it is unethical to pay such a large salary to one person while the economy falters and the average worker has seen no or limited wage growth," said Andrew Campbell, Finsec campaigns director.A high proportion of the package related to short-term benefits, which concerned the union. "An excessive focus on short term gains for senior bankers was a key driver of the global financial crisis and economic collapse," he said. The pay package raised questions about the need for executive salary controls in New Zealand. (NBR 23 November 2010) Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).

Description: A New Zealander walks cheerfully along the road thinking that 'there is no history of pickpockets here'; he has just passed a newspaper stand that reads 'Aussie owned big 4 NZ records massive 2010 profit' and also 'Pickpockets in NZ Americans told'. He is unaware of a man representing 'Banks' whose hand has slid into his back pocket. Context - Based on figures in the bank's June quarter general disclosure statements the big four - ASB, ANZ, BNZ and Westpac - recorded profit of NZ$632 million in the June quarter this year compared to an overall loss of NZ$410 million in the same period last year. That's a swing of NZ$1.042 billion. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).

Description: 'The Politician' cartoon strip. A parliamentary staff member asks a colleague what a minister is supposed to do if he is offered corporate hospitality; his collegaue says 'usually a little "happy dance"'. Context - Prime Minister John Key says there is nothing untoward in ministers accepting corporate hospitality from the Government's banker, Westpac. Green Party co-leader Russel Norman says the hospitality raises the question of a potential conflict of interest when the Government is considering putting its banking contract out to tender. Answers to a series of written parliamentary questions have revealed that nine ministers and the staff of 13 ministers have enjoyed Westpac's hospitality in the past year, most often in a corporate box watching rugby or a concert.
