Massive bank branch closures in the US – Check here to see if your bank is affected

It seems like every day another bank branch closes down, and it is not just a baseless impression, just in the first two weeks of October, 46 local bank branches of US banks have shut their doors for good. And there are many more to come before the end of the year.

The bank responsible for most of the closures this time around was Citizens bank, with fifteen closures in just a fortnight. Huntingdon shut down eleven locations, U.S Bank was responsible for nine and the rest of the closures were spread across Bank of America and Wells Fargo, each of which closed four locations, and both First National Bank of Texas and Chase, who closed one each.

These locations join the rest of the 754 bank branches closed in the first nine months of the year, and while they are spread out, October has hit Illinois and Pennsylvania hard, with eight and seven respectively.

If this pace of closures continues, by the end of the year, over 1,000 bank branches could be gone nationwide. What may be even more concerning, researchers at Self Financial examined the data on net closures, which have averaged about 1,646 annually since 2018, and concluded that the very last physical bank branch in the U.S. could close by 2041.

Of course, this is all speculation, but since the rise of online banking, the need for physical locations has been severely reduced. As a spokesperson for U.S. Bank told DailyMail.com “Client’s banking preferences and behaviors are changing, including a rapid migration toward digital and mobile banking platforms, and a desire for greater simplicity. As we evolve along with our clients, we are reevaluating our physical footprint, and in some instances, consolidating branch locations in select markets. Although we are closing some branches, we continue to open and enhance others, as well as rapidly enhancing our digital capabilities.”
