Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) customers will benefit mostly following the launch of a new SME Business Card by the Hatton National Bank in partnership with Mastercard International at an event at the HNB Towers on Friday.
The new business card will facilitate SME businessmen to attend to business transactions with local and international banks. Meanwhile plans are afoot by the HNB to launch another SME Credit Card to facilitate retail business transaction in Sri Lanka. HNB’s Deputy General Manager Jude Fernando said the uniqueness of HNB was that they are totally different to other banks approaching SME’s at grass-root levels to help expand with their businesses. HNB’s Managing Director/CEO Jonathan Alles said their initial plan was to sell 1000 SME Business cards in June and to sell another 7000 more business cards this year. He said their ultimate target is to sell 20,000-30,000 cards and a new App will be launched shortly targeting entrepreneurs and businessmen alike. Several new business cards were handed over to HNB Corporate clients. (JJ)
