Speaking further he said:

“2020 has been a difficult year not only for the financial industry but the entire country due to the lasting effects of the global pandemic with which all sectors had to grapple with. Nonetheless, as the premier savings bank of the country, National Savings Bank is geared to serve the nation to ensure financial sustainability in 2021 and beyond, with its concentrated effort and focus on digitalization”.

“The public can count on the readiness of NSB to make progress and to stand by them as the only bank with 100% government guarantee on their deposits and the interest as well as in providing them financial solutions in 2021 and beyond”.

“Also, the year 2021 is a significant year on another level for National Savings Bank, as we are approaching the landmark of our Golden Jubilee by entering the 49th year of our establishment.
