Who is our customer

National Development Bank PLC (NDB) was established in 1979 in Sri Lanka as a wholly state-owned development bank. After its transition into a privatized entity in 1993, the bank expanded its range of financial products and services through the formation of subsidiary and associate companies. NDB provides an integrated range of products and services in corporate and SME banking, retail banking, capital markets and insurance.

What is our funding objective?

FMO's funding will be used to grow the company's renewable energy portfolio (at least 40% of the funds) and agri portfolio (at least 10% of the funds) to better serve the bank's end-clients.

Why do we fund this investment?

Green finance, particularly renewable energy, is increasingly important to FMO's investment strategy. This investment allows FMO to support green finance at the end-user level. Additionally, by providing long term US dollar funding for the renewable energy portfolio, FMO will better match the company's funding needs and portfolio tenors.
