How many bank branches there are per 100,000 adults.
The ranking uses the latest available value for each country — the year is shown in the row. The table spans 2013 to 2024.
Top-20 · per 100,000 adults
The scale does not start at zero — the values lie in a narrow range, and starting from zero the bars would be indistinguishable. The axis ticks are labeled.

The number of commercial bank branches per 100,000 adults. The indicator was conceived as a measure of access to financial services, but it now calls for care in reading: in countries where banking has moved onto the phone, branches are closing, and a falling value means not a loss of access but a change in its form. The clearest case is Kenya and other countries of East Africa, where mobile money reached the population bypassing branches altogether.
Important: A measure of the physical presence of banks, not of access to financial services. Where mobile payments are widespread, a low value does not indicate financial exclusion.
The volume of bank lending to businesses and households as a percent of GDP.
Finance 2000–2025 Bank capital to assets ratioA measure of the soundness of a banking system: how much capital of its own a bank holds per dollar of assets.
Business 1975–2025 Stock market capitalization in US dollarsWhat all of a country's companies traded on its exchange are worth.
Internet 1960–2025 Mobile cellular subscriptionsThe number of mobile subscriptions per 100 people — often more than 100.
