The Neuchâtel Cantonal Bank has made significant efforts to improve the security of its ATM network in response to a series of explosive attacks, including one in La Brévine last May.
The bank conducted a thorough security review and invested a substantial amount of money to strengthen its machines.
Due to the increasing threat from criminal gangs, especially near the French border, the bank has temporarily closed down some ATMs.
Measures taken include moving certain ATMs indoors, installing protective metal curtains, and implementing access restrictions at various locations.
These measures aim to ensure the safety of residents, users, and employees, while also reducing the risk of future incidents.
