Officiating Mayor of Dharan Sub-Metropolis Manju Bhandari inaugurated the joint transaction of the company at a programme organised in Dharan, informed the bank.
According to Bhandari ” Integration of bank and finance companies would create more powerful institutions which will have positive impact on the national economy”.
“A powerful company can expand its branch network across the country which will facilitate people with easy and accessible financial services,” she added.
Roshan Kumar Sigdel, Director of Nepal Rastra Bank’s Biratnagar regional office, urged the bank to pay special attention to the security of the capital as the financial institutions were running with the public money.
