Lending Barriers? The Impact of Bank Branch Closings
Between 2008 and 2020, over 13,000 bank branches closed in the U.S., representing 14% of all branches. In Indiana, bank branches have decreased by nearly 23% in the past decade. In Marion County, the bank closure rate from 2011 to 2021 was 29%, much higher than national and state rates. This is leading to broad financial deserts across our cities and state, especially in neighborhoods of color ? impacting fair lending options. Why is this happening? What can be done?
