Browsers Supported
This website has been developed for the convenience of a broad range of users, including those who require assistive technologies like screen readers. To this effect, the site supports a number of current internet specifications. The table below summarizes levels of support for commonly-used browsers.
Definitions of levels of support :
▶ Level 1 : We carry out Quality Assurance using this browser across at least one platform and support this browser.
▶ Level 2 : We support this browser, but do not carry out Quality Assurance to verify the impact of any changes made to the site. We use the test for this browser on a different platform, or with a newer, related release.
▶ Level 3 : We do not test any of these browsers on any platform. We do not support the visual display of what these browsers render, although the functionality of the site should remain fully accessible. If this is not the case, please tell us.
For our technically inclined users, the particular specifications that we support are HTML 4.01, CSS 1.0 and 2.0, DOM Level 1 and 2, and ECMA Script (JavaScript). The site will work using all browsers in so far as they correctly implement these recommendations. Those browsers that do not support these specifications will be gracefully downgraded to a lower level of support.
To maximize your Internet banking experience, we recommend using a newer browser version to make full use of new technologies and current security updates. More information on the above-listed browsers follows:
Internet Explorer 7
Internet Explorer is the only browser that supports biometric login used in Wire Transfer - MTS (Money Transfer Services) and CAFT (Customer Automated Funds Transfer) applications.
Our product no longer formally supports browsers used in combination with Windows 98/98SE/Me. However, the site is expected to continue to work as it does today on older platforms. IE for Mac is no longer formally supported. Download PC Version
Internet Explorer 5 and older versions
IE 5 only meets some of the development standards we aim to comply with. If you use this browser, much of our site will not display as intended, and you may not be able to use some advanced features. We recommend upgrading to a newer version of Internet Explorer.

This site supports Firefox versions 1.0 onwards (including Mozilla versions from 1.3 onwards). We recommend you upgrade to a recent version of Firefox, as older versions have known issues with the site. Download Firefox
