Commonwealth Bank of Australia has taken out Money magazine's prestigious Bank of the Year 2010 award.
The bank was highly commended in virtually every category and was singled out for offering attractive rates on savings accounts.
Nab came second, while Westpac rounded out the top three.
RAMS Home Loans was named best non-bank lender for the second year in a row with Homestar Finance and Collins Home Loans taking second and third spot respectively.
NAB scored the award for Credit Card Issuer of the Year, while Budget Direct was named Insurer of the Year.
"For the past six years the June issue of Money has played host to the Consumer Finance Awards," says Money editor Effie Zahos.
