Starting from small beginnings, and enduring many a storm of change, DFCC Bank has today, scaled the heights to become one among Sri Lanka's top ten corporates. DFCC set sail in 1955 with a modest capital of eight million rupees. Then known as the Development Finance Corporation of Ceylon, DFCC played a pioneering and catalytic role in the post-independence development of indigenous industry in Sri Lanka.

During its years in development banking, DFCC has chartered new trails and overcome many obstacles, without losing sight of its vision to infuse energy and dynamism into a growing economy. It has nurtured many a trailblazing Sri Lankan entrepreneur adding value to the enterprises they built. Today, DFCC Bank is a 26 billion-rupee company, thriving on change and continuing to be a constant resource centre for enterprise building.

New game plans will propel DFCC into a next generation financial institution. Its pioneering spirit will drive it to test unexplored avenues and help the private sector to be the engine of growth.
