In keeping with Seylan Bank’s intention of promoting savings among children, a ‘Creative till Competition’ is launched aiming children below 10 years of age. This is the first competition of its kind organised by any bank in the island, and will reward the main winners with a package tour to visit Dreamworld theme park in Thailand.

The competition consists of two aspects. First, children are expected to design and create a till (within the dimensions of length 8 inches x width 8 inches x height 8 inches) and make it as creative and innovative as they wish. Secondly, the competition will reward the entrant who managed to save the most amount of money within the given period of time. The competition also offers many more attractive prizes to its participants.

Due to numerous requests, especially from schools where the bank maintains student savings centres, the deadline for the competition has been extended to 25 September to accommodate more entries. Seylan Bank branches would be accepting completed tills from 1 September onwards. Completed tills should be handed over to the branch where the Tikiri account is maintained. You could also enter the competition by opening a new account in the event you are a not an account holder.

Seylan Bank’s minor savings scheme, ‘Seylan Tikiri’, with a history of 23 years is one of the most favoured children’s savings accounts in Sri Lanka. The Seylan Student Savings Centres located in schools across the island play a vital role in acting as channel extensions in reaching out to the children to promote the savings habit. While rewarding the child depositors with novel and innovative gifts, Tikiri also imparts and encourages the savings habit from a tender age. Seylan bank’s belief is if children get involved in banking practices from their early childhood, they will learn about finance, fund management and practice savings throughout their adult lives.

Seylan Bank DGM Marketing and Personal Banking Tilan Wijeyesekera said, “The savings you make today becomes a wonderful gift for a child’s future. The Seylan Student Savings Centres are run by the senior students of the school to whom the bank provides training. This guidance along with the savings habit nurtures the children and gives valuable insights for investments as they grow older. Further ‘Seylan Tikiri’ is also renowned for being closely connected with its customers and consistently engaging them in various activities that highlight their talents.”
