I believe the percentages for the first column are incorrect. They are both over 100%. It looks like they were derived from adding the percentages in the provinces together rather than calculating percentages for the full population.
What do "Percentage of active male accounts" and "Percentage of active male accounts" mean in these data? Is it:
percent of accounts that are held by men and by women and that are "active"
percent of men (or women) in the total population who own a savings account?
What does "active" mean in these data? That isn't something that would be useful to answer when the data are used.

Can we have a gloss somewhere, perhaps in a README, that describes the meaning of terms like what the "penetration" of saving accounts means, and what counts as active, etc.? That will make it easier to consume these data. Could we also have link to the original data set to make verification and review easy?

@nikeshbalami - can you pls advise? If the data is in accurate we don't have to use it I believe.. |

Although it comes from the official source, NRB hasn't described the metadata and probably they have their own way of calculation. Let leave this issue for a while, I will have a look when I am free. |
