The bank has introduced ‘Isuru Udana’ savings account for children aged five years and below, while ‘Sisu Udana’ was introduced for children between five and 18 years, with the objective of inculcatin­g the habit of saving among children.

‘Sisu Udana’ account has become one of the most popular and widely used accounts among school children in Sri Lanka. Since its inception, People’s Bank has awarded the highest interest rates for Sisu Udana account holders, in addition to rewarding them with a number of attractive gifts. Moreover we have introduced a scholarshi­p scheme too, for the betterment of their future.”

Continuing the tradition, People’s Bank has taken steps this year as well to offer special rewards to all children who will make deposits to their existing accounts or those who open new accounts between October 1 and December 31.

People’s Bank also aims to organise capacity building programmes for children at its islandwide branches. In addition, the bank will be awarding valuable monetary rewards to pre-schools and schools of the children who save during this period.

Parents now have the convenienc­e of opening ‘Isuru Udana’ or ‘Sisu Udana’ accounts by visiting any of the 737 Plus People’s Bank branches islandwide or at their child’s pre-school or school. This would also encourage children to make deposits on their own. Furthermor­e, People’s Bank has also provided mobile banking service and Internet banking service to make deposits to your child’s account from the convenienc­e of your home.
