Making a branch less attractive to robbers

Answered by:

Question:

Is our branch at a greater risk for robbery because we are away from town and more isolated?

Answer:

This is a good question. There are definitely characteristics that make one branch more attractive than another to a potential robber. He doesn’t want to be seen or caught, so isolation could be a positive factor in his mind. Proximity to a good escape route and ease of escape are also important. In this webinar, we will discuss other environmental factors that can make a branch more attractive to criminals and ways we can eliminate or reduce risks.
