A build your own bank kit

While the collapse of the Co-op’s bid to buy hundreds of Lloyds bank branches is a setback for the banking landscape, I think there’s still a great opportunity for a better bank to emerge.

8

Should banks open on Saturdays?

9
Sign with days of the week

It’s great news that some HSBC branches will be open later and on Saturdays. So is this the start of a new trend in customer-service-comes-first banking?

(more about better bank opening times…)

Is Metro Bank the beginning of a new banking era?

5
