1.7. LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
Though we tried our level best to produce a comprehensive and well-organized report on “The Insight of Customer Satisfaction Level on Trade Operation: Citibank, N.A. [Dhaka] Perspective”. Some limitations were yet present. While conducting this research on Citibank, N.A., we have faced with some constrains which we think might interfere with the quality and accuracy of this report. For example:
First and the main constraint of this report is Time shortage. As we have submitted this report within very few days, it is very short time to make any research of an organization. The analysis is based on some limited data, so it has become difficult to draw a complete figure. The most elementary limitation of this study is the limited number of respondents interviewed. The objectives hold significant importance for the bank but the number of clients itself is small. The results can be justified further if the number of respondents can include all the present clients. While the clients were interviewed many of them were unwilling to talk freely.
Some of the respondents in my survey weren’t helpful; some of them weren’t honest in their opinions. Some information is confidential and the managers and officers do not provide that information. The official website doesn’t provide up-to-date information about some issues. There was lack of intellectual thought and analytical ability to make it the most perfect one. I have to offset with the quality due to time constraint.
