Bank bosses will not bear the brunt of their mass store closures – as an investigation reveals they all live within 15 minutes of a local branch.

Last week, it was revealed a fifth of customers now have to make an hour round-trip to visit their nearest bank.

Some living in the countryside told of journeys taking more than three hours – a huge issue for the elderly and vulnerable who cannot use technology in place of an in-person visit.

Now the Mail has found not one chief executive or chairman of the eight banks that have closed the most branches will face a lengthy trip. 

Of the 11 with addresses in this country, six lived within ten minutes of their branch by car, with three just five minutes away.
