Additionally, a former Republic Bank located at 1601 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, "was temporarily closed at the time of the Republic Bank transaction due to a water main break, which caused significant damage to the financial center. We have already informed customers of the Walnut Street financial center that we would not be reopening that facility," as stated by a Fulton Bank spokesperson. 

When Daily Voice reached out to officials about the closures we were sent the following statement reading in part:

"While it’s never easy to close one of our financial centers, it’s sometimes necessary after we evaluate factors including overlapping service areas and trends in how customers conduct their banking. Consolidations like these enable us to operate more efficiently and invest in new financial services, while maintaining a network of financial centers where we meet with customers, listen and understand their needs, and recommend the best financial solutions for them.We are sending letters to customers who use affected financial centers, with recommendations for other nearby locations they can use. Between now and when the financial centers are scheduled to close, our Human Resources team will work with affected employees to integrate them into a new role or help in identifying current openings they can apply for within our company."

These closures were made public after Fulton Bank announced Richard Kraemer coming on as Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Designee "replacing Interim CFO Betsy Chivinski, who will retire from Fulton at the end of the year," as stated in a press release on Tuesday, July 23.
