ESTABLISHED in 1981, BOC Maldives has grown steadily over the years, building a reputation as a trusted banking partner.
BOC Maldives forms an important part of Bank of Ceylon’s international network, connecting the bank’s operations in London, Chennai, Seychelles, Malé and Hulhumalé. Within this network, BOC Maldives occupies a unique position due to its presence in a tourism-driven economy and its role in facilitating banking relationships associated with trade, investment, foreign currency transactions, and broader regional business activities.
Bank of Ceylon (BOC) Maldives recently celebrated its 45th anniversary, marking a significant milestone in the bank’s long-standing contribution to the Maldivian banking sector and its commitment to fostering economic growth and financial inclusion in the Maldives. A special customer felicitation ceremony was held to recognise long standing relationships with key customers and business partners with the participation of Bank of Ceylon’s Chairman Kavinda de Zoysa, General Manager/CEO Y.A. Jayathilaka, Acting Senior Deputy General Manager/Head of Global Markets G.A.
