The Commercial Bank of Ceylon has launched its first exclusive Women’s Banking Centre, managed by a dedicated team of female staff to serve female customers, reinforcing the bank’s commitment to meeting the unique needs of women.
The centre named ‘Anagi Women’s Banking Centre’ was recently opened at the Jaffna branch, located at No 474, Hospital Road, Jaffna.
Designed specifically to cater to the needs of female customers, the Anagi Women’s Banking Centre features special amenities including a lactation room, children’s play area, dedicated pawning unit, counselling unit, cafeteria and provides the full range of financial products and services offered at any Commercial Bank branch.
Through this initiative, the bank reaffirms its commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion as well as its dedication to promote gender equality and empower women, the bank said. The exclusive ‘Anagi Women’s Banking Centre’ aims to go beyond traditional banking by creating a unique environment specifically tailored to the needs, preferences, and challenges faced by women, while offering a comprehensive range of banking services.
In recent years, Sri Lankan women have made significant progress in entrepreneurship, education, and participation in the workforce. Yet, many continue to face systemic barriers in accessing financial services. The ‘Anagi Women’s Banking Centre’ is designed to address these challenges by providing a safe, supportive, and welcoming space for women to take control of their financial wellbeing, the bank said.
