Chris, like me, appears to be in New Zealand. The only local bank I've heard any info about is Kiwibank, who are apparently not vulnerable due to running their systems on Windows. I believe at least one local bank runs most of their stuff on Linux, but I haven't heard anything from them. Perhaps (some of the) banks are a bit smaller here, and don't necessarily run to the mainframes used elsewhere. I certainly wouldn't jump to conclusions that they're a bank therefore they use IBM mainframes therefore they don't use OpenSSL therefore they're invulnerable, and I wish that they'd tell us either way.
