The same loan also supports some areas for capital market development but its main aim is the recapitalization of People’s Bank.
People’s Bank General Manager Asoka de Silva told LBR that government gave the cash in the last week of December as part of the agreement with the ADB.
The bank is due to get Rs. 2 billion every year according to the loan agreement.
