The Central Bank (CB) has introduced an SMS/ Email Alert Service to enhance the awareness of investors in the Government Securities, CB Governor Indrajit Coomaraswamy announced on Monday.
The SMS/ Email Alert is a service that sends real-time notifications to investors in Government Securities for each and every movement of scripless securities in Customer’s Securities Account(s).
Customers receive a notification (SMSs from “LankaSecure” and emails from “no-reply@cbsl.lk”) immediately after a transaction in their Securities Account which is also known as CDS account.
Real-time notifications can either be in the form of an email or a Short Message Service (SMS) or both in accordance with the customer’s /investor’s preference.
To enable the alerts service, custodian institutions (Licensed Commercial Banks or Primary Dealers) are required to record the customer’s /investor’s preferred method of notification, along with relevant contact details in the LankaSecure System.
Customers are advised to ascertain that the contents in the alerts are in accordance with the Customer Instructions given to custodian institutions and the agreements between the customer and the relevant custodian institution.
This SMS/ Email Alert facility is an added service to the regular confirmations sent to customers, as printed statements by the LankaSecure system and the online viewing facility currently available to the investors, the CB said. (Bandula)
