People’s Bank’s state-of-the-art ATM network recorded transaction volumes amounting to a staggering Rs. 12.6 billion during the recently-concluded Sinhala and Hindu New Year festivity period from 7 to 12 April.

This unprecedented number of volumes means that over 200 transactions were executed every minute on average through the 498 ATMs located all over the island and accessible day or night, which marks a phenomenal increase from the number of volumes posted last year.

People’s Bank, which has become the pulse of the people during its 54 years of existence, is strongly committed towards providing banking and finance services made efficient and effective through state-of-the-art technology.

People’s Bank has partnered with IBM and Sri Lanka Telecom (SLT) to launch the first phase of its digitalisation drive to enable it to deliver a new level of service to its customers, whilst revolutionising the banking sector. By aiming to become the most digitalised bank, People’s Bank, which is also one of the highly-profitable banks in Sri Lanka, hopes to bring a new level of convenience to its customers whilst reducing its carbon footprint and levels of energy consumption

In addition through its synergy with LankaPay common ATM network, People’s Bank’s 16 million strong customer-base is now able to enjoy island-wide, secure access to close to 2,700 ATMs of the participating banks at most affordable rates. Furthermore, customers of any of the 12 participating banks under the LankaPay arrangement now have the opportunity to conduct transactions through People’s Bank’s extensive ATM network.

People’s Bank strives towards greater excellence by rightly understanding clients’ needs to provide the best financial solutions, consistently extending a superior customer experience exceeding all expectations.

The bank recently received the ‘Best Banking Group’ ‘and Most Sustainable Bank’ awards at the prestigious World Finance Banking Awards in 2015. The reputed international financial and business magazine, The European, also recently honoured People’s Bank for serving Sri Lankans for over five decades and enabling them to meet their financial and banking needs.

In a one-of-a-kind achievement, People’s Bank has been awarded ‘The Service Brand of the Year’ and ‘The Banking Service Provider of the Year’ for the 10th consecutive time at the SLIM Nielson People’s Awards 2016.
