I have seen few other users asking the same question.

Try Technology Preview, an advanced version of Safari.

Download Safari Technology Preview install it, launch it from Application folder.

Safari Tech Preview > Preferences > Privacy > Website tracking

Uncheck the boxes beside > Prevent cross-site tracking

Cookies and website data:

Uncheck the box beside “Block all cookies”.

Click Safari in the menu bar and then” Settings for This Website”.

Click inside the box next to Pop-up Windows” and choose “Allow”.

Try the bank website.

Others are seeing the same thing. It seems to be a bug in the newest Safari 13 version.

Dominic3: Thank you for your reply to my question. Unfortunately, Safari still will not let me log in to my bank account. It is something to do, I think, with Apple's stronger privacy protection. I am not locked out of my account, as I can use Firefox, as I said before. However, I do appreciate the help I can receive from users of Apple Discussions such as you.
