NatWest (NWG.L) is closing a further 43 branches, as lenders reduce their presence on the high streets to cut costs and to adapt to more customers taking up online banking.

Several branches in Scotland, including in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen, are among the fresh wave of closures.

Six jobs are expected to be put at risk as part of the closures, indicating most branch staff will be offered the opportunity to take up a role in a different branch or another part of the business.

"As with many industries, most of our customers are shifting to mobile and online banking, because it’s faster and easier for people to manage their financial lives," a NatWest spokesperson said, adding that the bank was investing in alternative services.

The branches will close between January and March next year.

The closures are the latest in a series of such moves by NatWest, which said it February it would close 32 branches. Most staff were moved to other branches at that time, but 12 jobs were put at risk.
