LOLC Al-Falaah wins Gold at SLIBFI Awards again
LOLC Al-Falaah, Sri Lanka’s most awarded Alternate Financial Services brand, has once again proven its dominance in the Islamic Banking and Finance sector by winning four prestigious awards at the 12th edition of the SLIBFI (Sri Lanka Islamic Banking and Financial Industry) awards.
The awarding ceremony, held recently at Shangri-La Hotel, Colombo, recognized the outstanding contributions of LOLC Al-Falaah within the Islamic financial services sector of the country.
Al-Falaah achieved a remarkable feat by receiving multiple accolades. The brand was honoured with the Gold award for Islamic Finance Non-Banking Financial Institute (NBFI) Entity of the Year, where in previous years the category availability for NBFI was the recognition for the ‘Islamic Leasing Company of the Year’ award. Impressively, this marks the fourth consecutive year that Al-Falaah operating under LOLC Holdings PLC has secured this esteemed title in the NBFI category. Additionally, it also secured the Silver award for Islamic Finance Window/Unit of the Year, and the Bronze award for Islamic Finance Entity of the Year. In a notable addition to its already impressive list of achievements, LOLC Al-Falaah’s very own Ash-Shaikh Fazil Mohamed was honoured this year with the highly esteemed ‘Rising Personality of the Year’ award.
The SLIBFI awards, initiated by UTO EduConsult (UTO), aim to recognize the remarkable efforts made by the Islamic Banking and Financial sector in Sri Lanka.
LOLC Al-Falaah has been a trendsetter in Sri Lanka’s non-interest based financial services landscape. It stands as the first licensed NBFI to offer a comprehensive 360-degree Islamic Finance product portfolio since its inception, making it a pioneer in the country’s Alternative Financial Services sector.
Shiraz Refai, Head of Alternate Financial Services at LOLC Finance, highlighted the key factors contributing to the success of LOLC Al-Falaah. “Our achievements stem from a robust and compliant business model, an extensive range of products, and the strong brand presence of LOLC.”
