Judo Bank (Judo Capital Holdings Ltd) is an Australian challenger bank founded in 2016 and headquartered in Melbourne, purpose-built to serve small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with relationship-led business lending alongside personal and business term deposits. It was the first new domestically-owned bank in decades to be granted a full, unrestricted authorised deposit-taking institution (ADI) licence by APRA, in April 2019, and has been publicly listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ticker ASX JDO) since November 2021 - it is a for-profit, shareholder-owned bank, not a customer-owned mutual. As a designated ADI and data holder under Australia's Consumer Data Right (CDR / Open Banking) regime, Judo Bank exposes a public, unauthenticated Product Reference Data (PRD) API conforming to the Data Standards Body (DSB) Consumer Data Standards, while authenticated consumer-data sharing is governed by the accredited data recipient (ADR) model rather than an open self-serve developer program.
