New Seylan Bank chairman

Seylan Bank has appointed Mohan Pieris, President's Counsel as Director and Chairman of Seylan Bank PLC from April 20.

Mohan Pieris

Pieris who served as the Attorney General from 2008 to 2011, brings with him a diverse and rich experience which he has acquired across the entire gamut of public and private activity in his 37 years as a practising lawyer. This exposure has enabled him to effectively contribute in a substantial manner in the positions he has held.

A hallmark of his career has been the ability to give life to the spirit of the law, the deep insight and understanding of men and matters and their accommodation and to ensure fairness in the implementation and upholding of the rule of law.

Amidst his academic achievements he has also an impressive record in non-academic activities.

Pieris who was admitted as an attorney-at-law in 1975, successfully qualified as a Solicitor of the Supreme Court of England and Wales in 1978. Between 1981 and 1996 he served as a State Counsel rising to the position of Senior State Counsel. In recognition of his contribution to the legal profession he was appointed President's Counsel in 2004.

He has served as a legal consultant to the Central Bank where he provided legal oversight in its regulatory mechanism inclusive of the drafting of the rules of corporate governance for Banks and other financial institutions.

He also secured a deep knowledge and insight into banking procedures as laid down in English Law and in the Banking Act, Monetary Law, Exchange Control Act and other attendant statutes in Sri Lanka
