Speaking on LB Finance, tradition and service to an appreciative
public, Sumith Adhihetty, Managing Director reiterates that the three
can never be mutually exclusive; “For the past four decades and counting
we have been a part of the Sri Lankan financial sector with the aim of
providing convenient and affordable financial solutions to our
customers. It is a part of the LB tradition of service”, he states,
“It’s in this vein that we had the blood donation campaign in addition
to the other celebrations we have planned!”
The campaign is not a new concept for LB Finance. A similar was
carried out last year to commemorate the company’s momentous landmark of
40 years in the industry. The campaign was a resounding success in terms
of turn-out and outcome. In addition to the colossal staff strength
shown, the general public also participated in numbers.
The financier ended FY 2011/2012 with typically high results;
exponential growth was seen in public deposits, asset base and profit
after tax. A solid lending portfolio was compounded by a fast growing
base of finance lease and hire purchase receivables. Fixed Deposits,
Microfinance, Gold Loans, Microfinance, Factoring, Margin Trading,
Inland Money Transfer and Islamic Finance comprise of the rest of the
financial portfolio that has been the combination for success for LB
Finance.
LB Finance comes directly under the purview of parent holdings, the
Vallibel group of companies. Playing an all-important role in the
success of the group and the company is Dhammika Perera, group Chairman.
“LB Finance is a rock steady entity in the group as well as the
financial sector as a whole”, opines the visionary entrepreneur credited
with some of the greatest current successes of the corporate sector. “It
has not only been a rock of strength for satisfied customers but has
also been able to show a significant hold on the market and solid
results and dividends to shareholders. I applaud the efforts of the
Managing Director and his committed Board”, he further stated.
