People’s Bank removed from the Blacklist

Date:

The Economic and Commercial Office of the Chinese Embassy in Colombo has removed People’s Bank from the Black List. The decision was taken due to the payment of dues for organic fertilizer imported from a Chinese company.

According to the agreement reached between the Chinese company and Sri Lanka, the stock of fertilizer was rejected but the payment had to be made, however, the payment was suspended on a court order.

In this situation, the Chinese embassy took action to blacklist the People’s Bank.
