Pan Asia Bank’s new Business Internet Banking empowers customers so that they can create their own logins without any extra cost or having to visit the bank each time they need a new one, offering time savings.”
The salient features of the new Pan Asia Business Internet Banking encompass multi-level authorization; create users without visiting a branch; fund transfers (to any local banks); utility bill payments; set up standing order online; secured messaging option; RTGS request; cheque book request and view account balance/history.
Mr. Naleen Edirisinghe added, “Saving customer’s valuable time, the new Business Internet Banking allows them to be in touch with the bank with an in-built secure messaging option. Most of all, this service is free of charge for all customers as there is no annual or joining fee.”

The new Pan Asia Business Internet Banking solution is ideal for the Bank’s corporate clientele consisting of sole proprietorships, partnerships, clubs and societies, NGOs, limited liability companies etc., who will be able to use the above features to fulfill their business needs and manage their accounts and cash flows. Pan Asia Bank offers an array of financial and services to create value and to deliver high results for corporates.
