Standard Chartered Bank, in keeping with its pledge to offer innovative banking solutions to its customers, has introduced ‘structured bundles’ to the Sri Lankan corporate milieu: The ‘Value Employee Banking Suite’ is a unique product designed to cater to the especial demands of the busy executive.
This latest in the line of Standard Chartered’s novel solutions, the ‘Value Employee Banking Suite’ “makes your salary the gateway to banking ease”.
The simple transfer of a salary account to Standard Chartered would facilitate attractive incentives and a bundle of benefits: the ‘Value Suite’ includes payroll savings or current account with debit card, credit card with cash back incentives, online and phone banking facilities and text alerts.
Value additions are also available in the form of preferential rates for personal loans and discounts on processing fees for loan-on-card and balance transfers. Customers can also enrol for e-statements which increases convenience and also help save paper. Single application and underwriting makes the application process faster and much easier.
Standard Chartered Bank’s ‘Value Employee Banking Suite’ was launched recently, and Sanjay Wijemanne, Head of Consumer Banking, commented: “While there are many single products in the market from which a customer can pick and choose, this is the first time in Sri Lanka that a structured bundle of products is offered aimed at a specific segment, with specific requirements of the target customer in mind.”
The ‘Value Suite’ is yet another reiteration of the premium the bank places on customer satisfaction; it strives to fulfil customer aspirations whilst recognising and rewarding customer loyalty.
Wijemanne stressed: “Our aim is to provide the busy executive with a suite of products that would fulfil their varying requirements, while offering easy instant access that many of us look for to balance our demanding schedules. Whilst doing so, we have included many attractive incentives that would greatly increase the total value of the relationship.”
