Which countries rely most on ATMs versus bank branches?

Which countries have the most banks and ATMs per inhabitant?
Austria has the highest density in our directory, with 41 bank branches per 100,000 inhabitants.
Density is based on the locations we have recorded, divided by national population. As coverage differs by country, treat this as a coverage-weighted indicator rather than an official branch density.

Lending and savings rates are sourced from the International Monetary Fund, the European Central Bank and the World Bank, refreshed weekly.
