A methodological perspective on mobile banking for G2P payments in Pakistan
conference contribution
posted on 2023-07-26, 14:23 authored by Atika A. Kemal, Lin YanThis paper aims to fulfil the methodological gaps that are prevalent within mobile banking (m-banking) practices in the government-to-person (G2P) payment sector in developing countries. By drawing upon the interpretive and social constructionist stance that underpins the theoretical framework, it highlights how the case study methodology guides a qualitative approach for data collection in the study. Hence, an interpretive case study of the Benazir Support Programme in Pakistan, provides a holistic view of m-banking practices from both programme designers as well as women user’s perspective. We discuss how an interpretive methodology ‘constructs’ social realities around mobile banking for individually ‘enabling’ and ‘constraining’ G2P payments, and its impact on financial inclusion for socio-economic change within households. To conclude, we argue why financial education, and training is important for ‘capabilities development’ in the financial inclusion agenda to eradicate poverty in Pakistan.
