About the episode

The major banks have agreed to stop regional bank closures for the next two and half years. It comes as Australia Post negotiates agreements with banks to preserve in-person banking services at post offices. The announcements are part of a government effort to protect regional banking as the country transitions to a digitised banking sector.
