Dr. Subodha Charles, one of their founding figures, reflecting on their past said from struggling to earn the faith of customers during their primitive part to today having served countless numbers of clients, they remain grateful to all, then to now.
Dhananath Fernando, CEO of Advocata Pvt Ltd, credited the Pearl Cluster for expanding and really fighting back in the last 12 years. Despite it not being easy, he extended his congratulations, especially for bouncing back during tough times.
“We (as a country) had a reasonably good comeback. The recent Central Bank report says our inflation has been at a manageable level, our reserves and tourism is bouncing back, the economy growing at 5%, per capita GDP is 4,500. If you look at all the macroeconomic indicators, it is showing a recovery, and that’s very good”, he said.
Adding that, “Learning the lesson from the crisis, people’s economic literacy has been better, they’re quite cautious about the investment decision – in that front it is good.
