■ Empowers tea estate communities through financial inclusion
-

IN a landmark initiative underscoring its commitment to financial inclusion and rural empowerment, Sarvodaya Development Finance PLC (SDF) has installed the first Automated Teller Machine (ATM) at the Tea Research Institute (TRI) in Thalawakale, bringing formal banking services to over 5,000 tea estate families in the region for the first time.
This milestone marks a tangible step forward in SDF's mission to bridge Sri Lanka's urban-rural financial divide. The newly deployed ATM ensures safe, secure, and convenient access to cash withdrawals and account services, significantly reducing the time, cost, and risk involved in travelling to distant towns for basic banking.
