A Last Will and Testament must be executed by a person. In that sense "execute" means to make and to sign. A bank may be appointed the Executor of an estate. The Executor is given the power by the court to carry out the distribution of the assets as directed in the will, pay debts and taxes, sell the real estate if necessary, execute the necessary probate documents, etc. The bank is entitled to a fee for this service. When a bank is appointed as the Executor the bank assigns a bank official to the case who signs all the documents necesssary to settle the estate on behalf of the bank.
