Combank adjudged ‘Most Responsible Bank - Sri Lanka’ by Capital Finance International

The Commercial Bank of Ceylon has been adjudged the ‘Most Responsible Bank’ in Sri Lanka by the London based print journal and online resource ‘Capital Finance International’ (CFI.co) which reports on business, economics and finance.

This significant accolade was awarded especially in recognition of Commercial Bank’s commitment to improve Green financing – such as renewable energy projects on a large scale – by exploring the Green energy potential in the country.

Furthermore, the Bank’s investment interest in tourism, healthcare, and infrastructure projects in the country too played a part in winning it the ‘Most Responsible Bank – Sri Lanka’ 2017 award.

The CFI.co judging panel commended Commercial Bank on its robust approach to responsible banking and recognised its pioneering role in this regard. Notably, the Commercial Bank of Ceylon is an early signatory to the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), a UN initiative to encourage businesses worldwide to adopt sustainable and socially-responsible policies.
