About the Survey
Research was conducted April 29th to May 20th, 2014 by Reputation Leaders, an independent research firm, among 15,105 adult banked consumers aged 18 to 64 in 15 major markets. Interviews were conducted by RDD phone interviews in the US, and by online survey in Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, Japan, Russia, Singapore, Spain, Turkey, and the UK. Respondents were balanced by quotas in each country to ensure the sample mix was representative of national adult populations by age and gender. Key findings show both universal beliefs that transcend boundaries, and country-level differences. The margin of error for the total sample of 15,105 adults is 0.8% at the 95 percent level of confidence. In each country of 1,000 adults interviewed, the margin of error is +/-1.3% at the 95 percent level.
