Lanka ORIX Finance PLC recently welcomed a new addition to its network of regional branches, when its newest branch was opened in Balangoda last week.

LOLC Group Chairperson Rohini Nanayakkara graced this momentous occasion as Chief Guest. Senior management members and customers from the Balangoda area also attended the opening ceremony.

Lanka ORIX Finance carried out limited operations through the Balangoda Post Office Service Centre set up by its sister company LOLC Micro Credit Ltd.

As a result of growing demands arising from this region for inclusive financial services, the new fully-fledged branch was established.

The Balangoda branch will offer comprehensive financial products such as savings and deposits, NRFC/RFC accounts facilities, leasing and loan schemes, factoring, insurance services, agro and micro finance to name a few.

Nanayakkara said: “After a successful micro credit operation through a mini branch we have identified much potential in the town of Balangoda and in the surrounding areas.

As a business establishment that has worked closely with people, helping them to realise their entrepreneurial talents, Lanka ORIX Finance is committed to provide innovative financial solutions catering to a diverse range of customer requirements.

I am indeed proud to be part of this moment when Lanka ORIX Finance has expanded its islandwide presence with yet another significant footprint.”
