International bank Standard Chartered Bangladesh has launched a Priority Banking proposition for eligible chartered accountants (CAs) in partnership with The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Bangladesh (ICAB).
The two organisations signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on Sunday to provide customised financial and lifestyle benefits to eligible ICAB members.
Under the partnership, chartered accountants will receive preferential banking and financing solutions, including savings on ICAB membership and practitioner fees, cashback and fee waivers on selected products, lifestyle and travel privileges and complimentary supplementary debit cards.
Standard Chartered Bangladesh Chief Executive Officer Enamul Huque and ICAB President Sabbir Ahmed signed the agreement on behalf of their respective organisations.
The proposition will also give eligible ICAB members access to Standard Chartered’s wider Priority Banking services, including dedicated relationship manager support, bancassurance solutions and Islamic banking services through Standard Chartered Saadiq.
Standard Chartered Bangladesh CEO Enamul Huque said the initiative recognises the contribution of chartered accountants to governance, transparency and sustainable business growth.
“Through this proposition, we aim to offer them convenience, meaningful value and a tailored banking experience in managing their personal finances,” he said.
ICAB President Sabbir Ahmed said the partnership would provide members with benefits designed to address both professional and personal financial needs.
“Delivering value to our members remains an important priority for ICAB,” he said.
Standard Chartered said the partnership reflects its effort to develop specialised banking solutions for professional communities in Bangladesh.
