Abstract

Using probit regression model on primary data, this study reveals that level of educational qualification, value of asset owned and individual’s monthly income, and being married have a positive and significant impact on account opening decision, whereas the value of asset owned, monthly income, number of earning members in the family, and being male and married have a positive and significant impact on the frequency of using banking services in rural area of Bangladesh. Furthermore, fixed effect estimation results on branch-level monthly panel data reveal that branch size, deposit and remittances positively and significantly affects profitability, whereas expense management affects negatively.
