The Finance Sector Union has urged the federal government to hold an inquiry into the impact of bank branch closures on customers and communities. The FSU’s national secretary Julia Angrisano says the union has been particularly concerned about the closure of branches in regional areas. BankWest has advised that it will close 14 branches in NSW, Queensland, Victoria and South Australia, while 29 branches in regional areas in Western Australia will have reduced trading hours. Angrisano has accused BankWest’s parent the Commonwealth Bank of putting "profits before people".
