Amãna Bank has once again partnered with the Sri Lanka Islamic Banking and Finance Industry (SLIBFI) Conference as its Lead Banking Partner.
The conference is to take place on tomorrow (July 11) with the participation of many industry leaders, practitioners, advisories, regulators
and scholars.
Held for the 9th time, the SLIBFI conference this year will be held under the theme ‘20 years of Islamic Finance in Sri Lanka’ with panel discussions reflecting upon the achievements in the past two decades as well as how the industry is geared to take on the ever changing
banking landscape.
Commenting on the partnership, the bank’s Chief Executive Officer Mohamed Azmeer said, “Amãna Bank is honoured to be the Lead Banking Partner of the SLIBFI conference as the IBF industry celebrates 20 years of existence in Sri Lanka. The roots of Amãna Bank also go way back to the year 1997, the year in which the challenging journey to establish Sri Lanka’s first licensed commercial Bank to operate holistically under the principles of non-interest based banking began.”
Amãna Bank is the country’s first licensed commercial bank to operate in complete harmony with the globally growing non-interest based banking model.
