Sri Lanka’s leading non-bank finance institute, the People’s Leasing, tomorrow marks its 29th anniversary.
Since its inception in 1996, the company has grown from humble beginnings into one of the country’s most respected and innovative non-banking financial institutions.
Over nearly three decades, People’s Leasing has consistently delivered financial solutions that empower individuals, entrepreneurs, and businesses across Sri Lanka. The company’s portfolio has expanded from vehicle leasing to a comprehensive range of services including loans, deposits, Islamic financial services, and digital banking innovations.
People’s Leasing & Finance PLC Chairman Prof Ajantha Samarakoon said: “We are immensely proud to celebrate 29 years of service to the people of Sri Lanka. This milestone is a testament to the trust our customers place in us, the dedication of our employees, and the strength of our values. As we look to the future, we remain committed to excellence, innovation, and financial inclusion.”
People’s Leasing & Finance PLC CEO/General Manager Sanjeewa Bandaranayake said: “As we commemorate 29 years of unwavering service, I am filled with immense pride in what People’s Leasing has accomplished. This milestone reflects the trust our customers continue to place in us and the relentless dedication of our employees. We have grown, adapted, and innovated—always with the needs of our people at heart. As we look ahead to our 30th year and beyond, our commitment remains the same: to empower Sri Lankans with accessible, responsible, and forward-thinking financial solutions.”
People’s Leasing attributes its success to strong leadership, customer-centric values, and its affiliation with People’s Bank, one of Sri Lanka’s largest and most established state-owned banks. This synergy has enabled the company to maintain financial stability while embracing technological transformation to serve the evolving needs of its clients.
As the company steps into its 30th year, it reaffirms its mission: to be the most trusted financial solutions provider by offering accessible, sustainable, and innovative services that drive national progress.
