Sampath Bank has successfully led a landmark syndicated loan of Rs. 33.5 billion for the Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB), together with Nations Trust Bank and Pan Asia Bank. This significant funding facility will cushion the debt restructure of CEB and support its ongoing operations, ensuring the continued delivery of reliable power to the nation.
The syndicated loan highlights the collective strength of Sri Lanka’s banking sector in supporting nationally important institutions. By taking the lead role in this initiative, Sampath Bank reaffirms its commitment to promoting sustainable growth and contributing to the country’s long-term economic development.
