Temuan menunjukkan bahwa, kecuali daya tanggap untuk konstruk kualitas layanan perbankan, semua variabel terukur dikatakan dapat mendefinisikan konstruknya. Lebih lanjut, konstruksi produk simpanan dan kualitas layanan berpengaruh positif terhadap kepuasan nasabah dengan dampak dominan terhadap produk simpanan. Artinya, fitur-fitur yang ditawarkan dan kualitas layanan perbankan yang diberikan oleh BPD dapat menarik minat nasabah simpanan karena sudah memiliki kemudahan dengan kualitas produk dan layanan..
