The United Nations Capital Development Fund conducted a Digital and Financial Literacy baseline survey in seven Pacific Island countries including Fiji.
Over 1000 Fijians between the age of 15 and 74 participated in the survey.
The report also highlights that three-quarters of Fijians acknowledge that digital financial services make it easier to receive payments.
However, three in one Fijians believe that digital financial services are risky for ordinary people.
