bank closure

Financial institution shuttering

Bank closure is the shutting down of a bank, either temporarily or permanently.

A temporary closure might occur for holidays or emergencies: The storm forced bank closures across the region.

Permanent closure happens when regulators seize a failing institution or when a bank consolidates branches: The FDIC announced the bank closure Friday evening.
