I'd say the initial 6 questions are modelled on Census data, not anonymous bank records.

I agree. I am with this bank, and after seeing this was curious as to what information they actually have about me. Looking at the "My Details" section of the site shows only the following info:

- Name

- Phone

- Email

- Address

- Tax File Number (not unlike a US social security number)

I came to the same conclusion that its probably based on census data.

Though the report lists top brands, which they must get from something other than the census.
