DFCC Bank actively engages with the Women's Chamber of Industry and Commerce (WCIC), recognising the pivotal role of female entrepreneurs. The Bank's steadfast commitment to empowering women thus aligns with the cause championed by WCIC. Accordingly, driven by its sustainability strategy, which calls for women's empowerment, and acknowledging the importance of collaboration in driving sustainable change, DFCC Bank has partnered with the WCIC to make the WCIC Prathibhabisheka – Women Entrepreneur Awards 2023 possible. DFCC Bank also collaborates with other chambers, associations, financial and non-financial organisations, government entities, and other stakeholders that advocate for and support financial and social empowerment for women. This collaborative approach enhances the scalability and effectiveness of DFCC Bank's sustainability initiatives and women's empowerment programmes.
