ATMs and restrooms as banking innovations

Andrew Ackerman highlights two major financial innovations in banking over the past 50 years: ATMs and public restrooms in branches, especially those located in areas of Washington, D.C. lacking such facilities. This observation draws attention to the evolving ways banks serve customer needs beyond traditional financial services.

Ackerman has previously reported on operational issues at the U.S. Federal Reserve, noting that hundreds of laptops remained uninventoried until March 2025. He also covered an 11 percent jump in energy prices last month, the largest monthly increase in over two decades. These reports add context to his coverage of banking sector developments.
