Being or not – that is the question here. Bank branches have been tested exactly for several years. The motto is increasingly true: “We have put together two or more locations, join forces and skills.” The Raiffeisenbank Sierning-Es, which works together with a travel agency at the ASEN location, is a different way.
“We break new terrain together”-with these words, Raiffeisenbank Sierning-Wen’s heralded in a new era for his banking point in Asten in mid-April, which is a travel agency four days a week.
How is that possible? The financial institution and the travel world now rely on sharing branches. At Geranienstraße 6 an area was set up where the Wanderlust specialists are there for their customers on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. The banking point is open on Wednesday: from 7 a.m. the team is already personally available for consultation.
Can the branch share at other locations? The concept is very well received, you will let you know and do not take the cards closer. The fact is: all worries about cash, account statements and the like are unfounded – thanks to a permanently furnished self -service zone, the stock is protected.
Due to falling frequencies and relocation to online banking, which experienced a different demand for demand during the Corona period, the banks look exactly which branches are still useful. “In reality, it decides whether he is coming or not,” says Reinhard Schwendtbauer, who has been general manager of Raiffeisenlandsebank Upper Austria since May. The group currently has more than 350 banking points in the upper Austria alone.
