Sampath Bank has stepped up its efforts to emphasise and encourage the habit of saving amongst all Sri Lankans with the roll out of a host of rewards and benefits through its annual ‘Thrift Month’ savings promotion drive.
Going beyond regular gifts and incentives, Sampath Bank is offering face shields as part of the campaign’s rewards to deliver greater protection to its customers during the current global COVID-19 pandemic while promoting the habit of saving, the bank said in a media release.
The bank will be giving away large or small face shields to all customers making a deposit of Rs.5,000 or more to a new or existing Sampath Pubudu or Sampath Sapiri children’s savings accounts during the month of October. Similarly, customers can avail a large face shield when depositing a sum of Rs.25,000 or more to a new or existing Sampath Sanhinda Saver senior citizens savings account during the same period.
Commenting on this campaign, Tharaka Ranwala, Senior DGM – Operations / Group Chief Marketing Officer, Sampath Bank PLC., noted, “As a responsible national bank, we have always strived to inculcate and nurture healthy personal finance practises, such as savings amongst all Sri Lankans. As part of these efforts, we have been encouraging people to save more through our annual ‘Thrift Month’ campaign. In light of the global pandemic, we sought to offer a reward that helps protect our customer’s health while promoting the habit of saving.”
