In 1989, the HNB took its first step to downscale to the people at
the bottom of the pyramid by launching the first ever micro finance
programme now globally known as "Gami Pubuduwa" and in the last two
decades the Bank opened it's doors for more people in more places,
particularly in rural Sri Lanka to have access to micro-savings,
micro-lending, money transfer services and Micro-insurance.
The Bank has now devised a new model to expand into rural Sri Lanka
by setting up Micro Banking Centres with the main focus in bringing
financial inclusion among the people in the rural parts of the country.
