Wells Fargo CEO Charles Scharf has revealed some major changes are coming to over 4000 locations and customers might start to notice a difference in their local branch.
In an earnings call on Friday morning, the banking exec told investors the US financial services company was overhauling 4349 branches across the country.

He also said the bank was making “enhancements” to how consumers open accounts both in person and online.
“Continued to invest in refurbishing our branches while at the same time making enhancements for account opening experience in both our digital and branch accounts,” Scharf said.
The bank is actively refurbishing its branches across the US, aiming to modernize their physical presence and enhance the customer experience.
The bank has previously said they would triple the number of annual refurbishments by 2027 and establish an ongoing five year refurbishment cycle.
This includes updating furniture, lighting, carpeting, paint and digital displays.
Amid ongoing economic uncertainty, Scharf noted consumers remained resilient with shoppers continuing to spend money despite inflationary pressures.
However, he said some customers are starting to show “stress” in their spending patterns.
“Affluent customers continue to show strength while customers show more stress,” he said.
