People’s Leasing & Finance PLC Launches Islandwide Promotional Campaign “Ekwa Badhaka Paradamu Ekwa Aramuinuwetha Yamu”


In January 2022, under the theme “Pahabara Anagathayakata Nivaradi Therima”, People’s Leasing & Finance PLC (PLC) successfully conducted an Islandwide promotional campaign to raise awareness about its diverse product portfolio. However, due to the challenging economic climate and market conditions, further promotions were put on hold. Now, with the economy on the path to recovery and consumers eager to reclaim their pre-pandemic aspirations, PLC is proud to announce the launch of its Islandwide promotional campaign under the captivating theme “Ekwa Badhaka Paradamu Ekwa Aramunuwetha Yamu” – “Overcoming Obstacles Together, Moving Forward as One”.

The heart of this campaign lies in PLC’s commitment to offering attractive interest rates to its valued customers. On the 2nd of September, the entire PLC team, including the corporate management team, hit the streets, reaching out to communities across the nation. Over 2000 staff members were on the ground, educating the public about the special products and competitive interest rates available to help them realize their aspirations. This promotion will run for three months, starting from the 2nd of September, ensuring that everyone has ample time to explore these opportunities.
