NDB recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with ACH Education, a leading international education consultancy firm. This strategic collaboration aims to streamline the overseas education journey for Sri Lankan students, offering them comprehensive financial and advisory support, making overseas education seameless.

The official signing ceremony took place in the presence of senior representatives from both institutions. Gihan Punchihewa, Assistant Vice President – Privilege Banking, signed on behalf of NDB Bank, while Ms. Chanaka Palihakkara, Managing Director of ACH Education, represented the consultancy.

With nearly a decade of experience in the international education sector, ACH Education has successfully guided thousands of Sri Lankan students in pursuing their academic dreams in countries such as Australia, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Canada, and across Europe.

Through this partnership, NDB Bank will play a pivotal role in enhancing the overseas education experience by providing seamless banking solutions including education loans, foreign remittances, and other support services vital to studying abroad.

Speaking on the collaboration, Mr. Punchihewa remarked, “We understand that pursuing international education is both a major milestone and a significant investment. At NDB, we are proud to stand beside students and their families, offering solutions that simplify the financial aspects of this journey. Partnering with ACH Education allows us to provide a truly end-to-end experience that supports both ambition and achievement.”

As part of this broader initiative, NDB in partnership with ACH Education recently conducted a webinar themed “Step into the world of learning without borders.” Attended by over 50 participants of the bank’s affluent clientele, the session was led by Ms. Palihakkara. The webinar served as a valuable platform to raise awareness on global education opportunities while also highlighting NDB’s Student File offering, a comprehensive solution that caters to the financial needs of students pursuing education overseas.
