Methodology: Firstly, identifying the ServQual dimensions that describe the service quality of an online financial institution. Secondly, to compose and distribute a questionnaire with ServQual dimensions and customer satisfaction dimension. Last, to conduct ServQual analysis and correlate with customer satisfaction.
