If their bank or credit union did business with a legal pot store, more than 80% of Oregon consumers said they would not view their financial institution in a negative way and they would be more likely keep their accounts open, according to a new survey.
The survey was conducted by Oregon-based companies, LT Public Relations and DHM Research, non-partisan and independent public opinion and policy research firm. The survey sponsors said between Nov. 10 and Nov. 17, a demographically representative sample of nearly 800 Oregonians was anonymously surveyed online. The survey's margin of error is +/- 3.5%, according to the survey sponsors.
LTPR and DHM Research said they conducted the survey to help financial institutions understand the public's views about legalized marijuana, which may enable banks and credit unions decide whether to offer products and services to the controversial cannabis industry.
