~New MoU provides access to enhanced salary banking privileges, personal and home loan solutions, wealth solutions, family-focused services and digital banking convenience~

DFCC Bank has entered into a strategic partnership with John Keells IT to extend its Employee Banking Proposition to John Keells IT employees, giving them access to a wider range of financial solutions, privileges and services designed around their personal and family needs.

Formalised through a Memorandum of Understanding, the partnership brings together enhanced salary account privileges, personal and home loan solutions, credit and wealth solutions, family-focused financial services, lifestyle benefits and convenient digital banking.

Going beyond a traditional salary account, the DFCC Employee Banking Proposition is designed to support employees across different stages of their financial journey. Whether managing everyday expenses, purchasing a home, building wealth or planning for their families, John Keells IT employees will be able to access relevant financial solutions through one connected banking relationship.

The proposition also enables DFCC Bank to work closely with the John Keells IT Human Resources team to understand the needs of different employee groups, facilitate access to suitable solutions and simplify selected banking processes associated with employee and payroll requirements.

Asitha Pinnaduwa, Vice President and Head of Products and Propositions, Retail and Business Banking at DFCC Bank PLC, said: “Employee banking is evolving well beyond the conventional salary account. Employees increasingly expect financial solutions that reflect their lifestyles, ambitions and family needs, while organisations are placing greater emphasis on employee financial wellbeing. Through our partnership with John Keells IT, we are bringing these priorities together in a proposition that creates practical and lasting value for employees and the organisation.”

Digital accessibility is central to the proposition, allowing employees to manage their banking with greater ease and convenience. The partnership will also be supported by focused employee engagement and communication initiatives to help John Keells IT employees understand and make full use of the financial solutions available to them.

The collaboration reflects DFCC Bank’s continued expansion of its employee banking ecosystem through partnerships with leading organisations across Sri Lanka. By developing relationships that extend beyond salary processing, DFCC Bank aims to become a long-term financial partner to employees as their needs, responsibilities and aspirations evolve.
