Seylan Bank entered into an agreement with Banque D'Escompte to
enable Sri Lankan diaspora living in France to make remittances back
home on a regular basis.
Banque D'Escompte, established in 1932 is located in Paris and
Strasbourg. However, the bank has arrangements with the French postal
system having a presence in 17,000 locations throughout France. This
would give Sri Lankans living anywhere in France the opportunity to
conveniently make remittances to their loved ones in Sri Lanka.
Seylan Bank, through its 114 banking centers located island-wide
would be in a unique position to satisfy the needs of such remitters.
Remittances could be made to Foreign Currency Accounts or Sri Lanka
Rupee Accounts, as decided by the remitter. In addition, payments could
be made on identification and also delivered at the doorstep in Colombo
and suburbs within 24 hours.
