DFCC is a fully-fledged commercial bank offering the full gamut of consumer banking services. We are proud of how the bank has evolved from being a development bank assisting enterprises of all sizes, into a commercial bank in line with the changing needs of consumers and the country, not only maintaining but also growing the longer tenor, more risky project lending portfolio. 
Our growth story in the recent past is a result of our tenacity and the aggressive digitization drive we have embarked on to deliver technology-backed solutions to enhance customers’ lives. We are focused on delivering financial technology solutions to strengthen our consumer banking products and services. Consumer banking will be a key driver going forward and our customers can expect many more technology-backed solutions from DFCC Bank to simplify their lives.
