The sustainability leadership of the Commercial Bank of Ceylon was brought into focus on the global stage when Hasrath Munasinghe, Deputy General Manager – Corporate Banking of Commercial Bank of Ceylon PLC shared insights at United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) annual sessions held in conjunction with United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) annual sessions in New York. In his comments, Munasinghe highlighted the Asia Pacific region as a biodiversity hotspot with a vital role in advancing global sustainability. After these sessions, the UNGC Sri Lanka Network in a media release said it was delighted to see Munasinghe bring Sri Lanka’s voice to the Asia and Oceania Leadership Roundtable – Strategy, Policy & Impact, at the United Nations Global Compact Hub in New York. During the week-long UN sessions, Munasinghe also met with several high-ranking representatives of the United Nations and UN-affiliated agencies, strengthening the Bank’s links with the global sustainability agenda. A dedicated Sustainability Unit coordinates implementation, supported by a Sustainability Working Committee, ensuring that sustainability is integrated across all departments.
