Day 7: Asking Questions

Today I got to come in late, around 10:30 am. Praneeta came around 10:45, and we proceeded to wait for about an hour before interviewing clients. Praneeta wanted to interview the clients about their knowledge of banks and bank accounts. She has a vision of making Ujjivan process through bank accounts to help ensure the safety of the clients' money. The first client we interviewed has had a bank account for 13 years, and she knew the ins and outs of dealing with banks, and fully supported Praneeta with her vision. However, she warned Praneeta that there are many shady agents around banks who try to scam people. The second client had a negligible savings amount. She claimed that her income and (necessary) expenses leave her with few savings and that there was no need for a bank account. The final client was in between, and she understood the importance of an account but was hesitant to open one. The picture below is of Praneeta with the clients.
