The beehive is the epitome of efficiency; carefully crafted and constructed in a well-designed honeycomb pattern, in which all bees work together under the leadership of the queen bee, producing wax and honey to build and preserve the honeycomb. A close look at the workings of a bee colony, the goal of preserving the colony and producing honey with its multifaceted benefits, is a fitting analogy for Amãna Bank s journey of success. Similar to building a bee s colony, your Bank is building a strong foundation from which it can reap greater results in the future. Our unique model of banking offers a profit and risk sharing platform where customer earnings would be the result of real economic activity which creates prosperity for the society at large, alike to the sweetness of bee s honey.

Message from the Chairman - Mr Osman Kassim By the Grace of God Almighty, Amãna Bank since inception has made commendable progress in its business operations. Today as well as tomorrow s success is owing to the vision we had for this unique non-interest, asset based model of banking, which ensures that risks and rewards are shared with the Bank and its customers. I am happy that people from many faiths of life have confided their trust upon us and in our banking model. The Bank has embarked on an aggressive journey in the Sri Lankan banking industry with a business strategy that is aligned to the country s economic strategy with an emphatic focus on the Consumer and SME sectors which carry the potential for future economic growth. We hope to lead this industry, which is currently in its nascent stage in Sri Lanka, in becoming the hub for Islamic banking and finance in South Asia. In pursuit of our goals, we are preparing to raise capital through an Initial Public Offering (IPO). The funds raised from the proposed IPO will be channelled to meet the regulatory minimum capital requirements in 2013 and 2015 as well as to support the Bank s growth and expansion. Having laid a solid foundation to leverage from, we invite you to be an integral part of the Bank and share in our journey of success.
Message from the Managing Director/CEO - Mr Faizal Salieh Amana Bank symbolises in many ways the origin, growth and development of Islamic Finance in our country. As the first fully Sharia compliant bank we have made a distinct footprint in Sri Lanka s banking industry. The Bank is on a clear growth path supported by a strong set of shareholders including 3 top level international banking institutions and a focused business strategy. In a short period the Bank has acquired over 100,000 customer relationships through a network of 24 strategically placed branches across the country. The planned expansion phase over the next few years would see these numbers increase substantially. Since our launch in August 2011, the Bank s asset and liability portfolios have both recorded an impressive growth. This indicates the tremendous potential for our model of banking and the unique value proposition we have brought to the market. Our business model and the principles we work on are clearly seeing wide acceptance across all communities. In our journey forward we are required to meet the regulatory minimum capital of LKR 4 Bn by the end of 2013 and LKR 5 Bn by the end of 2015 and also fund the Bank s expansion both in terms of infrastructure and asset growth. This IPO is directed at fulfilling both these objectives. We are happy to invite you to join us in this journey and become a share owner in the bank that is making a difference in the banking sector.
Who we are Amana Bank is the first and only Licensed Commercial Bank in Sri Lanka to conduct all its operations under the principles of Islamic banking and be fully disengaged from interest based transactions. The establishment of the Islamic finance industry in Sri Lanka and its acceptance by the country s legislative, regulatory and fiscal authorities is an outcome of the pivotal role played by Amãna. The Bank is continuing its leadership role in taking the industry forward and heads a dedicated committee on Islamic banking under the aegis of the Sri Lanka Banks Association with the responsibility of examining further improvements to the regulatory, legislative and fiscal environments. Today, the Bank reaches over 100,000 customers through a growing network of 24 branches and 500+ ATM access points and has introduced a bouquet of customer conveniences such as Saturday banking, extended banking hours, deposit kiosks, banking units exclusively for ladies and 24 hour lease approvals.

Performance During the last two years of operations, the Bank has achieved a 188% growth in Customer Advances and 70% growth in Customer Deposits.
