What this measures
Automated teller machines (ATMs) are electromechanical devices which enable customers of financial institutions to perform financial transactions such as cash withdrawals, balance inquiries, deposits, transfer of funds, and obtaining account information, using an electronic card.
Limitations: Population-based ratios of the number of branches and ATMs assume a uniform distribution of bank outlets within a country's area and across its population, while in most countries bank branches and ATMs are concentrated in urban centers of the country and are accessible only to some individuals.
Regional and income-group figures are computed by the World Bank as a median.
