Old National, the largest bank headquartered in Indiana, also will close and consolidate nine other branches around the state. Old National said no jobs are likely to be lost in the consolidations because workers at all closed branches would be offered jobs at the consolidated branches.
In addition, Old National said it has struck an agreement to sell nine bank branches and $173.5 million in deposits to three banks in western Kentucky and southern Illinois. Eight of the nine branch buildings will be sold in those transactions.
“As part of an ongoing efficiency initiative, Old National took a close look at its locations, examining such items as market dynamics, deposits per branch, proximity to other offices and client traffic,” company officials explained in a prepared statement.
Old National recorded expenses of about $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2012 for those changes, the company disclosed Thursday in a securities filing. It expects additional costs of $2 million to $3 million in the second half of this year.
Old National had total deposits of more than $1.8 billion at the end of the second quarter.
