These changes are part of the bank's strategy to adapt to the growing demand for digital services, as more and more customers are using online banking. The branch closures are also driven by an effort to reduce costs and improve operational efficiency, as modern technologies allow for financial services to be provided without the need for physical presence in a branch.
