Austria: Automated teller machines (ATMs) (per 100,000 adults)

Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2024, Austria's automated teller machines (ATMs) (per 100,000 adults) fell 1.89 on 2023 (from 171.95 to 170.06).

Across the 19 yearly changes before that (2005 to 2023), the average change was +2.93 and a typical year strayed about 17.13 from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.3 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 69.21 in 2014 and the biggest yearly fall was 20.37 in 2016. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2015 to 2024 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains less than 1% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.

Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.

What this measures

Automated teller machines (ATMs) are electromechanical devices which enable customers of financial institutions to perform financial transactions such as cash withdrawals, balance inquiries, deposits, transfer of funds, and obtaining account information, using an electronic card.

Limitations: Population-based ratios of the number of branches and ATMs assume a uniform distribution of bank outlets within a country's area and across its population, while in most countries bank branches and ATMs are concentrated in urban centers of the country and are accessible only to some individuals.

Regional and income-group figures are computed by the World Bank as a median.
