You can bank on The Parade
20/11/2025
While online banking offers on-the-go convenience, there are some financial transactions and conversations that are best dealt with face-to-face.
And when it comes to banks and banking, no other mainstreet delivers quite like The Parade.
The Parade, Norwood is South Australia’s premier mainstreet and uniquely positioned as a one-stop-shop for banking and finance.
Whether you’re in need of a new savings account, a home loan or financial planning advice to set yourself up for retirement, or you’re in the business of doing business, you’ll find every major bank on The Parade.
Serving a local community with diverse financial needs while supporting the thriving local eastern suburbs economy, seven key financial institutions stand as a symbol of The Parade’s commitment to local people and businesses.
This high concentration of financial institutions within such a small geographic area is testament to the region’s strong economic performance and the role that The Parade plays.
For 16 consecutive months, the City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters has held the top national ranking for the lowest business failure risk—a clear reflection of confidence and resilience within the local business community.
Mayor Robert Bria describes this result as, “An incredible demonstration of our City’s economic strength and community resilience”.
“When you consider there are 537 councils in Australia, achieving the top ranking for the lowest business failure risk once is remarkable, but maintaining that for 16 consecutive months is truly outstanding.”
This accolade is backed by South Australia being ruled as the best place to do business in the nation by the Business Council of Australia.
“I could argue that, combined, these two results truly do position the City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters as the best place in the nation to do business, so it’s little surprise that the major banks all choose The Parade.”
A five-minute walk will get you to all the major banking institutions:
