Measuring Financial Capability of the Street Vendors

SUMMARY :
The report of the "Committee on Medium-term Path on Financial Inclusion" is an experts
committee formed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) (RBI, 2015).According to State
Level Bankers’ Committee (SLBC, 2018)of Odisha, there were 412 bank branches in
Bhubaneswar, as against a city population of 838,000 (Census, 2011). Financial Literacy
for 114 economies covering legal and regulatory framework, institutional arrangements,
disclosure practices and financial education.

The importance of individual characteristics, business characteristics, and presence of


bank branches in the area in determining financial capability of an individual is examined
here. We have used ordinary least square (OLS) approach to examine the relationship
(SLBC Odisha 2018)Financial inclusion also helps those at the bottom of the pyramid, by
providing them information on welfare policy instruments by the government (Bhanot et
al., 2012).Financial literacy is an important factor in making day-to-day financial analysis
and decisions (Lusardi and Mitchell, 2014; Hastings et al., 2013).
