Non-bank lending and reverse mortgages Property market trends and securitisation AI risk in financial services Superannuation and regulatory policy

Mina Martin is a journalist at Key Media, where she has been covering the financial services industry since 2016. She now focuses on the mortgage and lending sector across Mortgage Professional Australia and New Zealand Adviser, reporting on non-bank lending, reverse mortgages, property market trends, securitisation, and the evolving role of technology in broking. Earlier in her Key Media career, she reported for Insurance Business Australia and New Zealand and served as a global profiles writer.

Before joining Key Media, Mina worked as a development editor at a leading educational publisher, authoring published social studies textbooks and magazine features. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Communication, majoring in Journalism with a minor in Speech Communication, and a Master of Education majoring in English, a dual foundation that sharpens her investigative rigour and ability to translate complex financial subject matter into clear, authoritative prose.

How I think about writing for this industry…

“The best mortgage stories rarely come from a single headline, they come from connecting a regulator's policy shift, an AI risk report, and what it actually means for a broker's next client conversation. That's the thread I try to follow in every piece.”
