History & Management

Note Printing Australia (NPA) has been producing Australian banknotes for virtually a century.

NPA, as it is now more commonly known in the industry, evolved from the original print works established by T.S. Harrison to produce Australia's first circulating banknote series in 1913.

The company's focus, since inception, has been to generate 'security products' of the highest quality. This philosophy continues today as NPA works with its customers to provide innovative high quality banknotes, passports and security solutions.

NPA is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Reserve Bank of Australia and has its own Board of Directors and Executive Committee.
