Sector-based tender cohorts

Professional practices have more leverage when they move together.

FinBloc develops structured, opt-in cohorts for Australian professional practices, helping defined groups approach banks and providers with clearer requirements and greater scale.

Free for cohort members to register. No obligation to switch. Information is not shared with providers without consent.

How it works

FinBloc turns scattered demand into organised cohort requirements.

Each cohort is designed to help members express what they need, and help providers understand the opportunity more clearly.

1

Cohorts are formed

FinBloc identifies professional-practice and professional-practice groups with common needs and invites members to register interest.

2

Requirements are grouped

Members identify priorities such as fees, service, switching, cashflow support, lending, digital capability or relationship management.

3

Providers can compete

Once a cohort is sufficiently developed, selected banks and providers may be invited to respond through a structured process.

Why cohorts matter

A cohort gives providers a clearer reason to compete.

A single professional practice may have limited leverage when approaching a bank alone. But when 200 practices with similar banking needs come together, the opportunity becomes clearer and more valuable for providers.

$500m A cohort with an average turnover of $2.5 million represents $500 million in combined business activity — enough to make banks and providers pay attention.
