By relating the set of branch points $\mathcal{B} (f)$ of a Fredholm mapping $f$ to linearized bifurcation, we show, among other things, that under mild local assumptions at a single point, the set $\mathcal B(f)$ is sufficiently large to separate the domain of the mapping. In the variational case, we will also provide estimates from below for the number of connected components of the complement of $\mathcal B(f).$
