Our Purpose

Driven by Trust, Committed to Better

At Nations Trust Bank, we're guided by our commitment to Trust in Better. For us, this means continuously setting higher standards and going beyond today's achievements to deliver an exceptional service across every level. It's what drives us to innovate, promote sustainable growth, and be a trusted partner for our customers, communities, and the environment. Founded in July 1999 through the acquisition of Overseas Trust Bank Ltd, our journey began with an oversubscribed Initial Public Offering (IPO), setting a solid foundation for future growth. Since then, we have expanded to serve a diverse range of customers across Consumer, Commercial, and Corporate segments, offering a wide network of both physical and digital touchpoints. Our commitment to digital empowerment is evident in our pioneering innovations, including FriMi, Sri Lanka's first fully digital banking experience. We're also proud to be an issuer and the sole acquirer of American Express Cards in Sri Lanka, holding a leading position in premium banking. Our focus on digital leadership, sustainability, and personalised service reflects our promise to all our stakeholders. Join us on a journey toward a brighter, better future. With Nations Trust Bank, you don't just bank, you Trust in Better.
