40% fewer bank branches in West Flanders

There were once four bank branches in Moorsele. Today, all four, except for an ATM, have disappeared and according to the activists that must stop. Many people are not familiar with internet banking or find it difficult to move to a neighboring municipality. They need services in the bank branch itself. “A minimum of service must be guaranteed. There are bills on the table for this, which should be realized and approved,” explains Erik Van Deursen of the socialist trade union.
