Can't really tell you more then to have a look at the cURL module, the
rest is very dependent on the system your bank uses, so it might not
even be possible at all.

cURL can open secure connections, store cookies, initiate sessions etc.
It cannot "click" buttons, but it can perform the GET or POST actions
which are behind them though, if you figure out which are needed and
which parameters should be passed.
