Business Desk :
The country’s 45 per cent people do not use mobile financial service (MFS) and 32 per cent of them refrain from using the service for fear being victim of fraudulent activity, found a survey.
In the survey conducted by the Policy Research Institute of Bangladesh (PRI), nearly 66 per cent of the non-users identified “not needed” as the primary reason for not using MFS.
The survey was carried out from August to September last year covering a sample of 9,279 adult individual respondents and urban and rural areas across 300 upazilas.
The survey was revealed at a webinar organised by PRI on Wednesday.
