The Bank of Australasia was a British-chartered institution, incorporated in London in 1835 and operating branches across the Australian colonies and New Zealand. Its banknotes were private commercial issues, not government obligations — a distinction that mattered enormously during the colonial banking crises of the 1890s, when dozens of Australian banks suspended payments and note-holders found themselves holding paper of suddenly uncertain value.
The Bank of Australasia was among the solvent survivors of 1893. It eventually merged into the ANZ banking group in 1951, long after private banknote issue had ceased following the Commonwealth Bank's consolidation of the currency.
