Speaking on this occasion the Chief Guest Dilshan Rodrigo Assistant General Manager Hatton National Bank said "We are not the first private commercial bank to venture into Warakapola, and the opening of our customer centre is testimony to the Bank’s objective of making its products and services available across the island. We have partnered the progress of Sri Lankans for a century and more and hope that this venture will not only bring new possibilities to the area but would help improve the lifestyles of the people in Warakapola."

Today, HNB provides its expertise and services through a large network of Customer Centres across the island. It is also the only bank to have not forgotten the more rural villages, taking banking to the rural areas. When for the first time in the commercial banking history of Sri Lanka the Bank introduced a barefoot banker named ‘Gami Pubuduwa Upadeshaka’ through its Gami Pubuduwa Village Awakening Programme.

The HNB Warakapola customer centre offers a complete range of facilities from savings and current accounts, import/export loans, Singithi (minor savings accounts), Shanthi home loans, financing under the Gami Pubuduwa scheme, Credit Cards, NRFC/RFC accounts, leasing facilities etc. HNB drives on the cutting-edge of technology with an island wide ATM network, online banking and tele-banking facilities.
