Banks have had to make major adjustments both as a response to the growth of neobanks and to COVID-19. In fact, with the immense growth of digital banking, some banks have begun to question if branches are still viable in the 2020s.

Other banks, however, are looking at their branch in a new light and beginning to examine different design trends to make branches effective for new consumer bases.

Stephen K Griffin, SVP retail branch distribution strategy and sales at Regions Bank, will deliver an opening keynote at the Bank Customer Experience Summit, being held in Chicago from Aug. 31 to Sept. 1, that will examine how banks are changing branch strategy and what's on the horizon for branches.

ATM Marketplace spoke to Griffin via an email interview to get a preview of his keynote.
