About Us

Deposit Access is a privately owned Australian company that was founded in 1998. Our primary focus was to establish a variety of Deposit Bond products into the Australian property market, which would allow Australian residents a cost-effective alternative of exchanging property, particularly in relation to “off the plan” property purchases. The success of the Deposit Bond product in Australia led Deposit Access to expand its operations internationally to New Zealand. In 2002, Deposit Access commenced issuing Deposit Bonds for both Australian and New Zealand residents purchasing properties located in New Zealand. Since the company’s inception, the team behind Deposit Access has become recognised throughout the industry as a leading Deposit Bond supplier into both the Australian and New Zealand property markets.

Our underwriting procedures assess whether an applicant is likely to settle on a property transaction in the future, by reviewing their net equity position and their ability to service current and future debts. Deposit Access has an underwriting agreement with QBE Insurance (Australia) Limited for Australian Deposit Bonds and QBE Insurance (International) Limited for New Zealand Deposit Bonds. Both these companies are subsidiaries of the QBE Insurance group, Australia’s largest international general insurance and reinsurance group. Deposit Access currently operates throughout every state and Territory in Australia and in New Zealand via a comprehensive retail customer base consisting of Property Financiers, Property Developers, Mortgage Brokers, Financial Planners, Accountants, Solicitors and Real Estate Agents. We are one of the largest issuers of Deposit Bonds and all major financial institutions and developers accept the QBE Deposit Bonds issued by Deposit Access as a means of exchanging property.
