M. O. Stands for modus operandi.
So let’s just say the usual M. O. for a thief is to sneak through a window, steal jewelry and sneak out undetected. (I’m just saying an example. I’m sure there’s a better explanation of what a thief does)
So since the M O was the same in each robbery, they can conclude that it was the same person doing the robberies.

Q:
O que significa it's not as if there are only banks to work in(I know the meaning of "as if" e.g. she talks as if she is a layer. but I don't get the meaning for this recording's as if)?
A:
"It's not as if" is useful. It makes the falseness of the remainder of the sentence more obvious. It also is useful if others are behaving as if or seem to believe that (e.g.) "McDonalds is the only place to eat."
"You are speaking as if McDonalds is the only place we can eat. McDonalds is not the only place we can eat. Let's go to a vegetarian place."
Using "it's not as if" shortens that to two sentences.

Other questions about "Banks"
Q:
Why it’s not “When the two banks are all set to merge, one of them are suddenly backed out of their agreement.”? It looks more according to the timeline. Does this sound unnatural? If so, why?
A:
In the example sentence, “when” is not being used to describe the first clause.
Instead, this “when” means something like “but then”. It connects a previous state with a contrasting event.
The first clause describes a situation that was interrupted by the event in second clause.
In other words:
“The two banks were all set to merge. But then, one of them suddenly backed out of the agreement.”
Surprisingly, I haven’t been able to find this usage of “when” in any of the English dictionaries that I checked, even though it is natural.

Q:
What does "streamline banks" mean? And what are their parts of speech in this context?
A:
@massive I think the reason it has "streamline" instead of "streamlines" is a difference with British English. In American English, a collective noun ("a team", "the government") is treated as singular, like one entity. But in British English, those collective nouns can be treated as plural, like including all individual members.
US English: "My favorite team wins!"
UK English: "My favorite team win!"
Also, I don't think "first/third person" is the right grammar concept here. That refers just to the point of view of the writer, while verbs agreeing with their subject is a separate issue.
First Person: "I eat" and "We eat"
Third Person: "He eats" and "They eat"
(and Second Person: "You eat")
US English: "My favorite team wins!"
UK English: "My favorite team win!"
