However, there is still about 30 percent of the men and women's gap. 65 percent of the women in Bangladesh are out of banking services. In Bangladesh, the number of non-active accounts is 21 percent, but more in the neighboring countries. In 2017, one-third of the accounts in Afghanistan, Nepal and Sri Lanka were inactive. In India, this rate has been found in half. In the financial sector of India, new reforms and faster newer farmers' banking services, the number of inactive accounts are more. If these are operational, this rate will be reduced. But this rate is only 13 percent in Pakistan.
