Governors declared bank holidays primarily during times of financial crisis to prevent bank runs and stabilize the banking system. By temporarily closing banks, they aimed to stop the outflow of deposits and allow institutions to reorganize and regain public confidence. This action was notably taken during the Great Depression in the 1930s and during other economic emergencies to protect depositors and restore order to the financial system.
