Analysing features that affect the use of financial services in Tanzania # Tanzania-Financial-Services ## Analysing features that affect the use of financial services in Tanzania ## Background The training dataset contains demographic information and what financial services are used by approximately 10,000 individuals across Tanzania. This data was extracted from the FSDT Finscope 2017 survey and prepared specifically for this challenge. Each individual is classified into four mutually exclusive categories: No_financial_services: Individuals who do not use mobile money, do not save, do not have credit, and do not have insurance Other_only: Individuals who do not use mobile money, but do use at least one of the other financial services (savings, credit, insurance) Mm_only: Individuals who use mobile money only Mm_plus: Individuals who use mobile money and also use at least one of the other financial services (savings, credit, insurance) This dataset is the geospatial mapping of all cash outlets in Tanzania in 2012. Cash outlets in this case included commercial banks, community banks, ATMs, microfinance institutions, mobile money agents, bus stations and post offices. This data was collected by FSDT. ## Instructions: Examine the dataset. Are there any missing observations or columns where the data do not seem valid? Get basic descriptive statistics for the dataset. Create appropriate graphs to visually represent the relationship between financial services accessed (non-mobile, mobile, both) and age, gender, marital status, land ownership and type of income. Create appropriate graphs to visually represent the relationship between how often mobile services are used and age, gender, marital status, land ownership and type of income. Create a map to visually explore geographic distribution of mobile services coverage with respect to type of income. What can you conclude about use of financial services in Tanzania?
