Bank branches that closed around the United States over the last week: here is the full list

Last week, eleven bank branches belonging to three of the largest financial institutions in the United States were closed. Every week, the Office of the Comptroller of Currency issues a report that includes information on bank closures, openings, and relocations. This report covers both past and future changes that have been approved by the agency.

In 2021, the St. Louis Federal Reserve reported that 11 percent of bank branches had closed since 2009. This year, around 1,500 bank branches have closed across the country as many financial institutions begin to rethink their physical presence and increase their online services. Over one hundred more closures have taken place this year compared to those seen in 2021, showing that the trend that goes back more than a decade is continuing.

This trend of closures has already started to increase the distance customers must travel to visit a bank branch, especially for those living in rural areas.
