Winning these awards is a testament to our commitment to customer service and innovation. From our inception we have set ourselves apart through innovation to provide an unparalleled customer experience. It is this drive that has seen Nations Trust Bank pioneer many new concepts and ideas for the first time in Sri Lanka, including the first digital banking experience in Sri Lanka through FriMi. Our focus on digital enablement has also driven us to become Sri Lanka’s most inclusive and progressive bank as we were the first to offer native trilingual support on our mobile platforms and provide true online on-boarding facilities. While we express our gratitude to the Technovation Awards team, we also take this opportunity to thank our people and our customers for their constant support and trust in the Nations dream.’
