Among BOC's portfolio of products designed for young savers, the BOC Ran Kekulu Smart Children's Savings Account remains the most popular children's savings account in the country. In addition, the bank offers the BOC 18+ Account, which supports youth as they transition into adulthood, along with BOC 14+, and other dedicated savings accounts.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Priyal Silva, Deputy General Manager (Branch Operations) at Bank of Ceylon, said: "As the 'Bankers to the Nation,' we are committed to providing the next generation, who will bear the responsibility of tomorrow, with a host of benefits. The BOC Ran Kekulu Smart Account has been redesigned in line with evolving needs, combined with modern technology, to remain relevant for young savers. A key feature is the additional 1.5% interest rate above normal savings accounts. Once a child turns 18, the Ran Kekulu Smart Account automatically converts to a Youth Savings Account with the applicable benefits. Furthermore, we introduced the Ran Kekulu Smart Investment Account, which allows weekly, monthly, or quarterly deposits through standing orders. This account also offers an additional 2.5% interest above regular savings."
