The Central Bank yesterday said it is taking steps to pay compensation to the depositors of The Standard Credit and Finance Ltd under the Deposit Insurance and Liquidity Support Scheme.


Instructions on the application criteria will be notified through the print and social media, the Central Bank said.

“The depositors of the Standard Credit and Finance Ltd are hereby informed to submit duly completed claim forms along with the required documentation to the Resolution and Enforcement Department of the Central Bank of Sri Lanka once the notification is issued in the press and social media in due course,” the Central Bank said.
