Many bank offices in Varna started to dissappear during the last year. The picture is made in May, to be precise. This is the recent one, that I have encountered... and funny enough, it's located in the center of the town. All the letters have been removed from the peak.
Today I have found an article, reffering the current topic (in bulgarian): "Banks offices are being closed massively for clients"
Some highlights from the article:
- "65% of bank managers forsee bank offices to dissapear completely after 5 years";
- "the main reason for closure is the pandemic situation, and the tendency of clients to use electronic banking moreover";
- "the banks are minimizng expenditure after the crysis in 2008"
