Identifying the need to strengthen the bank’s presence in the hill capital, Nations Trust Bank extended their branch network to Katugastota, increasing its branch network to 65 locations. The branch will be the third in the hill capital.

The Kandy district that has always been a booming business hub in diverse industries can now experience a new dimension in banking with the entry of Nations Trust Bank. Located at No. 146, Kurunegala Road, Katugastota, the new branch is based on the bank’s proprietary design concept that offers its signature services of 365-day banking with extended hours. Nations Trust Bank, a key player in the financial industry has expanded to many areas in the country with the opening of multiple branches this year as well as extending reach through an increasing ATM network making the bank accessible to a larger population in Sri Lanka. The Katugastota branch was ceremonially opened by the chief guest Senior Minister for International Monetary Affairs Dr. Sarath Amunugama at a function that was graced by a large gathering of distinguished guests and well wishers. Driven by innovation and customer convenience the bank offers segmented product offerings to the individual as well as business customers. Amongst them are the private banking, inner circle and the business banking propositions that also offers business clientele a lucrative rewards scheme. The highlight of operating a business banking account is that it offers an attractive rewards scheme for platinum and gold business customers. Reward points can be earned based on the transactions done through the business account. The rewards benefit gives customers an opportunity to redeem their points at selected merchants making it the best value in redemption since one reward point equals one rupee; a “one for one” redemption. Speaking at the opening ceremony Director / CEO Renuka Fernando stated: “We are happy to bring 365-day banking to Katugastota as Nations Trust Bank believes in offering customers convenience. In order to offer our customers further convenience we have launched a mobile banking service that enables customers to do their day-to-day transactions using their smart phones at anytime from wherever they are.
