  9. Branch Banks • Offer Full Range of Services from Several Locations • Senior Management at the Home Office • Each Branch has its Own Management Team with Limited Decision Making Ability • Some Functions are Highly Centralized, While Others are Decentralized

  10. Reasons for Growth of Branching • Exodus of Population to Suburban Communities • Increased Bank Failures in Recent Years. (With branches spread over different areas branch banks produce more stable earnings and revenue flows) • Business Growth • Majority of states now allowing statewide branching – however branch location most important • Growth has slowed in recent years due to rising costs of real estate and growth of ATMs and electronic banking.

Reasons for Full-Service Interstate Banking • Need to Bring New Capital to Revive Struggling Local Economies • The Expansion by Non Bank Financial Institutions with Fewer Restrictions • A Strong Desire by Large Banks to Expand Geographically • Belief Among Regulators that Large Banks are More Efficient and Less Prone to Failure • Advances in Technology

  17. Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 • Allows BHCs to Acquire Banks Anywhere in the U.S. • Allows BHCs to Convert Banks to Branches – June 1997 • States Can ‘Opt Out’ and Not Allow BHCs to Convert to Branches • Limits Deposits of One BHC to 10% Nationwide and 30% Within One State • Allows banks to diversify into different geographic markets and meets the demand of the public to follow businesses as they move across the landscape
