In line with SBP’s vision to transform banks’ branches into disability-friendly branches for Persons with Disability (PWD); NBP has inaugurated its first branch having state-of-the-art facilities for PWD on Shaheed e Millat Road. The initiative is part of the bank’s advocacy platform to create a more inclusive community for people with disabilities in Pakistan.

The NBP President, (A) NBP Rehmat Ali Hasnie, inaugurated the branch along with Karim Akram Khan, SEVP/Group Chief, LCMG, Imran Farooqui, SEVP/Group Chief, Mehmood Akhtar Nadeem, Group Head, OPG, Shahzad Ahmed Karimi, PSO/EVP and other executives from HRMG, IDG, RBG, Aitemaad, OPG & LCMG.

The branch is modified to suit better the needs of people with disabilities focusing primarily on enhanced mobility access. Low-height ATM desks, dedicated areas for wheelchairs in waiting areas, and other new options are added for people with disabilities to ensure fast-tracked customer service.
