This recognition further underscores Sampath Bank’s expertise in leveraging emerging technologies to develop innovative financial solutions. Over the past 30 years, the bank has been the first to adopt several such technologies and introduce path breaking products to the Sri Lankan market that have revolutionised the country’s banking landscape. Sampath Bank was also adjudged the ‘Most Innovative Bank’ in Sri Lanka at the recent LankaPay Technnovation Awards 2017.

The inaugural SLT Zero One Awards were organised by Sri Lanka Telecom (SLT) with the objective of recognising, honouring and encouraging excellence in digital initiatives in Sri Lanka.
