bank branch closures escalate leaving communities without vital financial services

The ongoing wave of bank branch closures has left many communities, particularly the elderly, without access to in-person financial services. Santander's recent announcement of branch closures follows a trend where over 6,000 branches have shut since 2015, driven by a significant rise in digital transactions. Consumer advocates urge faster implementation of banking hubs to mitigate the impact on those unable to bank online.

Banco Santander plans to buy back €10 billion worth of shares from 2025 to 2026, while also cutting over 1,400 jobs in the UK as part of cost-reduction efforts. The bank reported a 38% drop in pre-tax profits for 2024, attributed to provisions for motor finance mis-selling and rising savings rates. Despite concerns about its UK operations, Santander's executive chair reaffirmed the country's importance, although a sale could be considered if a suitable offer arises.
