As the first to introduce a branded minor savings account in 1991, HNB is committed to protecting the interests of Singithi account holders. Consequently, working in partnership with HNB Assurance, the bank launched a special insurance scheme which will operate on standing orders issued from parents for Singithi and Teen savings accounts. Notably, parents are only required to set up a standing order between a minimum of Rs. 1000 –Rs. 25,000 to avail themselves of the insurance facility, and no additional premium will be charged. Encouraging parents to establish consistent funding for their children’s savings accounts, the insurance scheme will guarantee that in the event of a parent’s demise –either a natural or accidental death – HNB will continue tofund monthly standing orderto the child’s account. Customers with standing orders up to the value of Rs. 25,000 are eligible to receive this benefit from HNB free-of-charge.
