Vallibel Finance's gross interest income has grown from Rs 193.3
million in the first half of 2010/2011 to an impressive Rs 258 million,
showing a promising year-on-year increase of 33 percent.

current financial year.

concentrating on the very core activities of hire purchase, leasing,
micro credit.
Vallibel Finance has been able to maintain a very healthy level of
non-performing loan ratio (NPL) at 2 percent level which is well below
the industry average. "Remaining optimistic during a bad economic
climate and other socio-economic issues has been one of the key factors
that helped the company stay on track," Vallibel Finance Chairman
Dhammika Perera said.
"It is during bad times that a country most needs strong financial
backing and the company has been very successful in sharing its wealth
and knowledge with the public.
Our vision for the company now is to take this wealth to the
grassroots level, to those who thus far have not had the privilege of
choice when it comes to financial services." he said.
A well-diversified conglomerate in Sri Lanka, Vallibel Holdings has
more than 40 associate companies. |
