Nations Trust Bank, regulated by the Central Bank of Sri Lanka and governed by the Banking Act, commenced operations in July 1999 following the acquisition of the Colombo branch of the Overseas Trust Bank. Historically, the Bank’s profitability has been primarily driven by its Corporate Banking segment. However, in alignment with its strategic direction and long-term vision—“To be the premium retail-focused Sri Lankan bank, committed to superlative quality in all our dealings”—the Bank now aims to position itself as a retail-focused commercial institution.
