448. Insights: Do we still need bank branches?

Our expert host Simon Taylor is joined by some great guests to talk about the digitalisation of banking we've seen over the last few months and what this might mean for the future of bank branches. Banks around the world have for some time reduced the amount of bank branches available for customers, and during COVID-19 all banks were forced to shut their branches and adopt a truly digital way of working. But what will happen when we are past this?
