Seylan gifts ‘Tikiri Accounts’ to Kegalle quintuplets

Dilini Rasangi Shyamini, a 29 year old mother from Hettimulla, Kegalle gave birth to Sri Lanka’s second set of quintuplets at the Peradeniya Teaching Hospital in the early hours of Thursday 02 July. The father of the two boys and three girls, Shilantha Wijepala, is an executive officer in the mercantile sector.
In keeping with its national drive to help and encourage the children of Sri Lanka to save, Seylan Bank was the first bank to present the mother of the infants with five free SeylanTikiri accounts worth Rs. 50,000 soon after their birth. The presentation was made by Seylan Bank Kandy branch Senior Manager Malith Kumarage to the father of the infants.
“We are happy to be the first bank to give these infants a valuable gift and will be with them on their journey of life until they reach adulthood with Seylan Tikiri. As the bank that is always in the forefront of children’s savings, we’re honoured to offer these infants the best opportunity to save,” said Seylan Bank Deputy General Manager, Marketing Tilan Wijeyesekera.
Launched in 1992, Seylan Tikiri is Sri Lanka’s most popular and exciting minor savings account. It is also the most interactive and rewarding minors’ savings account scheme in Sri Lanka today.
Over the past 22 years, SeylanTikiri has brought thousands of children from all parts of Sri Lanka into its fold and has rapidly grown to become a popular household brand name in the country.
