DFCC Bank PLC has entered into a partnership with the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce (CCC), to formally integrate the CCC-led macroeconomic and sectoral intelligence into its service model. 

This strategic collaboration is set to enhance both internal expertise and client-facing value, reinforcing DFCC Bank’s position as the most insight-driven and customer-aligned bank in the country.

By harnessing the CCC’s deep research capabilities, DFCC Bank will gain privileged access to quarterly macroeconomic outlooks, sector-specific insights and dynamic market intelligence. These deliverables will inform decision-making across the organisation—from strategy formulation to client advisory—ensuring DFCC Bank teams remain ahead of the curve in responding to economic developments and customer needs.

Through this partnership, the CCC will provide briefings on key economic indicators such as GDP performance, inflation trends, policy shifts and global economic movements, alongside industry analyses tailored to DFCC Bank’s client sectors. These insights will not only serve internal capability-building but also enhance client conversations—offering DFCC Bank customers access to curated intelligence through strategic reviews and presentations.

DFCC Bank CEO Thimal Perera commented, “Timely economic insights and sector intelligence will strengthen the relevance and depth of our engagements – enabling us to support the customers with more

informed, responsive financial solutions that align with the realities they face.”

CCC Secretary General and CEO Buwanekabahu Perera stated, “Our goal is to take economic intelligence beyond boardrooms and make it practical and actionable for businesses.”

The official signing of the memorandum of understanding took place recently.
