Description
The limitation of the study is lack of information being provided by the staff of the bank because of the privacy policy of the bank. As for the survey deliberate convenience sampling is used, in which the respondents are selected on the basis of certain criteria the sample size is less and this is another limitation of my study.

The limitation of the study is lack of information being provided by the staff of the bank because of the privacy policy of the bank. As for the survey deliberate convenience sampling is used, in which the respondents are selected on the basis of certain criteria the sample size is less and this is another limitation of my study.
