Australian Greens leader Richard Di Natale says action is needed to address the "toxic culture" within the banking sector that has arisen due to the vertical integration model. The Greens propose to limit financial services groups to one of four roles, such as traditional banking services or asset management. Greens senator Peter Whish-Wilson advocates breaking up the banks, arguing that financial complexity has benefited the sector much more than consumers.
