LOLC Finance has been recognized as the Reader’s Most Loved Finance and Leasing Brand in the LMD Brands Annual 2026.
The recognition is based on an independent nationwide study conducted by PepperCube Consultants for LMD, capturing the opinions of consumers and business leaders across the country.
Over the years, LOLC Finance has evolved well beyond the role of a conventional finance company. Today, it serves nearly 800,000 customers through a network of more than 200 branches, supported by digital platforms and agency channels that extend its reach across Sri Lanka.
Its continued investment in digital innovation has also reshaped the customer experience. The recognition also reflects the company’s resilience during a period of significant economic challenges. By maintaining responsible lending practices, safeguarding depositor confidence and remaining focused on long-term customer wellbeing, LOLC Finance has continued to strengthen its reputation as one of Sri Lanka’s most dependable financial institutions.
Commenting on the achievement, Krishan Thilakaratne, Director and Chief Executive Officer of LOLC Finance PLC, stated, “Being recognised as Sri Lanka’s Most Loved Finance and Leasing Brand is both an honour and a profound responsibility. It is a testament to the trust our customers continue to place in us, not only to meet their financial needs, but also to support them through changing economic circumstances with responsibility, transparency, and care. This trust has always been the foundation of our success and continues to inspire us to raise the bar in everything we do.
“Our comprehensive portfolio, spanning savings and investments, lending, SME financing solutions, alternative financial services, and digital offerings, enables us to support customers at every stage of their financial journey. Backed by our extensive island wide branch network and seamless digital platforms, we remain focused on making trusted financial services more accessible while driving innovation and responsible finance. This recognition strengthens our resolve to continue delivering meaningful value and to remain the trusted financial partner that Sri Lankans can rely on for generations to come.”
Prasad Perera, Assistant General Manager, Marketing Communications of LOLC Finance PLC said the recognition demonstrated the strength of a brand built through consistency rather than campaigns alone.
“A truly loved brand is built over time through trust, integrity and meaningful customer experiences. This recognition reflects the confidence our customers have placed in us over many years and motivates us to continue delivering value through service excellence, innovation and responsible brand stewardship,” he stressed.
