“Local branch closures due to declining demand for day-to-day banking are the "direction of travel," the BBA said.

"There's an amazing revolution in the way people are banking," "The reason why it [mobile banking] has grown so much is just that it's a lot more flexible." "It's driven by customers - they can do it any time of day or night. You can pay a bill while at the pub - that sort of   thing." BBA chief said to BBC.

"They [branches] are an integral part of the industry," he said. "They will be more focused on the big decisions - taking out a mortgage, taking out a big business loan, where you need to have a face-to-face interaction."
