According to AS, U.S. financial giant Bank of America announced that it will temporarily close all its branches nationwide for 24 hours on Monday, November 11, in observance of Veterans Day.
The bank confirmed that in-person operations will be suspended for the day but clarified that digital services and ATMs will continue to operate as usual.

Bank of America Closes Branches Alongside Other Banks
Veterans Day is a federal holiday in the United States honoring men and women who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces.
By law, all federal government offices must close, and many financial institutions follow suit, giving employees the day off.
In addition to Bank of America, other major banks such as Wells Fargo, JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Chase, Citibank, U.S. Bank, Capital One, Citizens Bank, BBVA, Santander, and Compass will also suspend in-person services for 24 hours.
Customers, however, can continue performing online transactions, including transfers, payments, and account inquiries, through digital banking platforms or ATMs, which will remain available throughout the holiday.

Veterans Day, observed each November 11, is one of 11 official federal holidays in the United States.
On this date, banks, post offices, public libraries, schools, and some private businesses will close their doors.
In contrast, supermarkets, restaurants, pharmacies, and retail stores typically remain open, though some may adjust their hours.
The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) will also close for the day, resuming trading the following day.
Bank of America Will Also Close on Thanksgiving and Christmas
The November 11 closure will not be the only one this year for Bank of America.
The bank will also close for Thanksgiving and Christmas, following federal guidelines.
Official bank holidays also include New Year’s Day, as well as variable commemorations such as Presidents’ Day, Memorial Day, and Labor Day.
If a holiday falls on a Saturday, it is observed the previous Friday; if it falls on a Sunday, it moves to the following Monday, ensuring employees receive a day off.
Plan Your Banking Operations in Advance
Bank of America encourages customers to plan in-person transactions ahead of time, especially those involving loans, investments, or new accounts.
During the holiday, customers can access their accounts through the mobile app or official website, where they can pay bills, transfer money, and check balances.
The bank reminded clients that its automated phone service will remain available 24 hours a day, though live representatives will not take calls until operations resume the next day.
Meanwhile, ATMs will stay active for deposits and withdrawals, ensuring continuous access to cash throughout the Veterans Day holiday.
