Research and Data

Today the Reserve Bank of India placed on its website a research study titled “Status of Digital Financial Literacy in Lakshadweep Islands: Bottlenecks and Way Forward” under the Project Research Study . The study is based on the primary data collected from all the ten inhabited islands in Lakshadweep - Agatti, Amini, Andrott, Bitra, Chetlat, Kadmat, Kalpeni, Kavaratti, Kiltan and Minicoy - to analyse the present status of digital financial literacy and digital financial inclusion. While households were the primary unit of enumeration of the survey, SHG members, bank employees, school authorities, students and business-persons in the islands were also interviewed.

The Reserve Bank has today released data on Reserve Money for the week ended September 20, 2024.
