Over the past 10 years the full impact of technology on office utilization has taken hold, shrinking occupancy. Businesses have seized the advantage of digital efficiencies, remote staffing, eliminating the law library, and a host of new paradigms that equate to less office space. I recently stumbled on the newest and most interesting changes that will impact our streetscape and shrink occupancy as global banking institutions rollout video tellers.
Barclays has been piloting video tellers, mortgage consultants, and other banking services for customers who will now be able to reach their teller 24 hours a day using a mobile app or interacting on the Banks website. Barclays has shrunk branches in the UK from 2,000 a decade ago to 1,362 today, and the numbers are heading south. Video tellers will not eliminate banking branches, but they will, for sure, reduce the corner bank by at least 50%, not to mention the reduction in staffing as the efficiencies of this technology take hold.
Stay tuned, this is big news, ushering in a whole new opportunity for fledgling actors as they find themselves in video teller pods somewhere in Kansas.
