Bank of Ceylon- Bankers to the Nation enables rubber industry
View(s):Rubber is one of the three main export crops in our country. At present, Sri Lanka produces 150,000 metric tons of rubber per month. The income received from export of rubber in 2010 was Rs. 83,224 Millions (USD 736 Millions). Observations since 2004 have revealed that the income gained from rubber production has been increasing continuously. It is from the rubber produced by the small rubber estate owners that we earn up to 65% of the foreign exchange earned from rubber exports.

It is with great pleasure the Bank of Ceylon introduces this loan scheme for the benefit of small scale rubber estate owners.
