National Australia Bank chief Andrew Irvine admits to ‘difficult week' after public scrutiny
National Australia Bank chief Andrew Irvine says last week's intense scrutiny has been 'difficult' in his first comments after a report emerged raising concerns about his behaviour and leadership style. Addressing the issue publicly on Wednesday, Mr Irvine said he expected scrutiny in his role but had hoped it would be 'even-handed and balanced'. 'Last week was difficult, I'm not going to beat around the bush, especially when media is quite personal and public. So it was hard for me and for my family,' Mr Irvine, who had been on holiday, told the Australian Banking Association conference in Sydney. 'I've just got to get through it and I plan on doing that. 'I love the job that I do, it's a real privilege to run the National Australia Bank. There's a real noble purpose in what we do, helping people navigate their financial lives, and that gives me energy.' Mr Irvine — who replaced former boss Ross McEwan last April — was under the microscope last week after it was reported major investors raised concerns about his leadership style and drinking at client meetings and events with the bank's directors. Mr Irvine's management approach was reportedly raised with NAB chair Phil Chronican at an investor lunch in Sydney last month, according to the The Australian Financial Review report. A NAB spokeswoman last week said Mr Chronican and the board backed Mr Irvine, and that 'Andrew Irvine and the NAB leadership team are delivering sound financial and operational results'. 'They are executing on a refreshed strategy focused on further improving customer and colleague outcomes. The board's support for Andrew and his team is unchanged,' she said. The Australian Financial Review also reported last week that NAB directors had informally met, asking Mr Irvine to continue in his role but urging him to improve his presentation. The board agreed that in the absence of any further, more specific claims, no action was required. Mr Irvine told media outside the ABA conference on Wednesday he missed the informal board meeting because he was asleep. He had chosen not to participate because it was held at 3am Toronto time, or 5pm Sydney time, when he was overseas on holiday. It comes following a string of senior departures at NAB, including chief financial officer Nathan Goonan in March. He moved to rival Westpac. Former business banking boss Rachel Slade was also replaced by Mr Irvine's former Bank of Montreal colleague Andrew Auerbach last month. Mr Irvine also warned the ABA conference on Wednesday that Australia was facing a 10-year productivity drought. He said many jobs created in the past decade had been low productivity roles in the care economy. He said Australia's housing crisis was the number one issue. 'We're struggling to build enough dwellings to both maintain the dream of Australian home ownership and enable migration,' he said.

Aussies set to cop $75k income hit as mining gravy train ends and living standards plateau: Westpac
Mining delivered more than 50 per cent of the gains in Australian living standards over the two decades to 2020, according to Westpac, but the big four bank warns the gravy train is coming to an end. Analysis from Westpac senior economist Pat Bustamante has found weak net export growth and stalled mining investment is set to cost the average Australian $75,000 of income over the next decade. 'The mining industry accounts for less than 2 per cent of total employment or hours worked, and less than 15 percent of total output, across the Australian economy,' Mr Bustamante said. 'Yet, in the two decades to 2020, the mining industry delivered almost 55 per cent of the growth in our living standards.' Mr Bustamante said the contribution mining made to Australia's living standards was predominantly driven by higher export prices for key commodities, like iron ore, and an investment boom to bring massive projects online. 'Indeed, a large reason why the Federal government and the mining states have been able to provide cost of living support, and increase the scope of public services, without becoming heavily indebted is because of the windfalls provided by the mining industry,' he said. But the Westpac economist said mining investment has 'stalled' post the Global Financial Crisis of 2008 and strong commodity price growth was unlikely to continue. 'The economic landscape going forward will be very different. The dividend from higher commodity prices is likely to be a thing of the past as key commodity export prices ease,' Mr Bustamante. 'We have iron ore falling from around US$103 per tonne today to US$84/t over the March quarter 2027, for example.' Australia derives the bulk of its mineral wealth from iron ore, with more than $100 billion of export income produced each year. Local and international banks have been bearish about the long-term outlook of iron ore as China's steel demand peaks and new supply sources begin to emerge in Africa. Mr Bustamante said Australian living standards are projected to move sideways between 2022 and 2030, which would be 'the longest period (of no growth) on record'. 'Compared to the scenario where per capita living standards grows at the 40-year average rate of around 2.0 per a year, income will be around $75,000 lower per capita over the next decade in today's dollars compared to the status quo — that's around $300,000 for a household of four,' he said. 'The good news is that it does not have to be this way. Faster productivity growth can be an offset. Opportunities are emerging and we need to be well equipped to exploit these.' Mr Bustamante pointed to artificial intelligence as a potential opportunity, but implied more would need to be done to bridge the gap. 'The International Monetary Fund recently estimated that in nations that are well positioned to benefit from AI, its widespread adoption could boost productivity growth by 0.9 to 1.5 percentage points a year.' The Westpac research comes as Federal Treasurer Jim Chalmers prepares to host a three-day policy summit next month centred around productivity. The Business of Council of Australia is leading a cohort of 28 businesses and industry groups at the economic roundtable.

Nats 'steers' rumbling in party paddock over net zero
A powder keg has been dropped within the coalition over climate policy as dissenters push for a net zero emissions target to be dropped. Opponents of the 2050 target are ramping up pressure on their leaders to ditch the target, saying it's hurting regional Australia and driving up power bills as Australia phases out coal and boosts renewable energy investment. The debate reignited after former Nationals leader Barnaby Joyce flagged a private member's bill to scrap the legislated target. "The last two elections we went forward with a policy supporting net zero and we've been handed our political derriere on a plate," he told reporters in Canberra on Wednesday. He argued Australia should focus on economic viability with big emitters like China, India and the US not making major cuts to emissions while Australia's power prices increased. India has a net zero by 2070 target, China by 2060 and the US had a 2050 target under the Biden administration but climate action has been largely scrapped under President Donald Trump. "Even if you believe every chapter, verse, what net zero was going to achieve, it's not going to achieve it because the world's not participating in it," Mr Joyce said. "So why are we on this sort of singular crusade by ourselves that has no effect on the climate but is incredibly deleterious to the standard of living and the cost of living of the Australian people - it's insane." Opposition Leader Sussan Ley refused to say whether the target will remain coalition policy as a review into its policies continues following their May election defeat. Liberals largely want to keep the net zero emissions policy; they lost a swathe of inner city seats amid concerns they weren't taking climate change seriously enough. "The electorate has told us in multiple elections that this is what they want, and we do have an obligation to leave the planet in a better place," Liberal senator Jane Hume told AAP. Labor has seized on the split over climate policy, with Climate Change and Energy Minister Chris Bowen saying the Liberals are being held hostage by their junior coalition partner. Mr Joyce has been joined by an unlikely ally in Michael McCormack, another former Nationals leader whom he rolled for the job in 2021. But the two have broken bread over a shared disdain for current leader David Littleproud after both were dumped from his frontbench. Mr Joyce, who was rolled by Mr Littleproud after the 2022 election loss, said he'd support a leadership bid by Mr McCormack, which he hasn't ruled out but acknowledged no imminent challenge. Mr McCormack denied the duo are white-anting their leader, arguing he's standing up for regional Australians who are bearing the negative impacts of renewable energy projects on their land and near their towns. Despite the duo touting leadership troubles for Mr Littleproud, other Nationals MPs hosed down the speculation, saying the talk was from a vocal minority aggrieved over climate policy and personal snubs. Liberal frontbencher Dan Tehan compared the two Nationals MPs railing against their leader as "two steers in a paddock". Mr McCormack said he took umbrage with the comments, joking that steers had been emasculated and he was "quite virile and ready to go as far as politics is concerned".
