Bank of Maldives hosted Maldives’ first ever dedicated banking event for resorts when it welcomed senior management from resorts across the country to Kurumba Maldives.
At the event, BML showcased its full suite of banking solutions for resorts including branch, card and online banking services. The Bank also unveiled an exciting new online international money transfer service which will hugely simplify the challenge of sending money abroad that is currently faced by resort employees and others throughout the atolls. This innovative mobile phone-based service will be officially launched by the Bank next week.
Tonight’s event brought into focus the decades-long relationship Bank of Maldives has enjoyed with the tourism industry and the support the Bank extends to resorts. Whether it is the finance requirements to build a new resort from the ground up or finding the right products to manage the resort’s financial operations, BML is uniquely placed to help. Management from the Bank emphasized how Bank of Maldives’ nationwide network of branches, agents and ATMs provide local services to resorts. This support is complemented by internet banking, card and payment gateway facilities, demonstrating the powerful package of banking services coming under the BML umbrella. It was also announced that each resort has been allocated a dedicated relationship manager who will serve as a single point of contact for all banking requirements.
Speaking at tonight’s event, BML CEO Andrew Healy commented “It’s a great pleasure to welcome so many of you to this unique event for resorts. Bank of Maldives has had the honour of working with a great many of you as you’ve developed your resorts and as you’ve made such a terrific success not just of your own businesses but of the tourism industry as a whole. Yes we wanted to share our exciting new international money transfer product with you. But far more importantly, we wanted to say how much we value your business and to highlight some ways we can further support your resort and your staff with your banking.”
