Unclaimed Money

When money remains in a bank account for a period of time without being touched, it is consdered to be a "dormant" account. Financial institutions are obliged to forward such funds to the Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC) after a certain period of time, whereby they are then considered to be "unclaimed money". The money can be claimed back from ASIC by the owner of the funds by visiting their website.
