LIMITATIONS AND FUTURE RESEARCH

Limitations of scope with respect to sample sur­vey, sampling area, sample size, types of banking services setup and number of external variables considered exists. Public bank officials had apa­thetic view in the survey because of overburden­ing of tasks and could not spare adequate time for responding to questionnaire.

Therefore the sample size was relatively less for public sector banks as compared to private and foreign banks. Demographic, psychological and business analysis of customer data has not been incorporated at this stage which has an important relevance with respect to understanding the effectiveness of CRM system and cross sell. Banks do not have any scientific method of evaluating the implication of cross selling. CRM implementation is still in nascent stage except Private/Foreign and leading PSU banks. Banks generally uses their in-house software/technique for CRM implementation instead of using dedicated structured software for same.

Future research can aim to widen the scope of research in terms of the widening the sample size, geographic area. Some further studies can be carried out on Likert scale to design the fac­tors associated with the effectiveness of CRM System and Cross Selling in changing Banking Scenario. Future studies can also be consider for some more external variables related to CRM tools and its measurement in cross selling for increas­ing the external validity and clinical significance of research.
