Banking in Sri Lanka

The Thonigala Rock Inscription[8][9] located in the modern day Vavuniya District, dated in the third year of King Kithsirimevan (also known as Kirthi Sri Meghavarna) who reigned in the 4th century A.D., records that a certain minister deposited some quantities of grain and beans with a guild in the northern quarter of the city with the stipulation that the capital should remain unspent and the interest should be utilised for providing meals to the monks of the Yahisapavata monastery during the monsoon season of every year.

The inscription describes how much interest is to be taken and outlines the different kinds of provisions to be supplied for feeding the monks.

HSBC was using interactive electronic customer interfaces such as automated teller machines (ATMs).
