With this certification, known as ISO 18788:2015, BRAC Bank is now all set to ensure the highest security measures amidst the growing importance of cyber security in the financial sector.

The ISO 18788:2015 standard provides a framework for establishing, implementing, operating, monitoring, reviewing, maintaining and improving the management of security operations. This certification will also help BRAC Bank gaining more customer trust for their banking needs.

BRAC bank is also the first Bangladeshi bank that was certified with ISO 27001:2013 in recognition of its compliance with the highest standards in developing and implementing an Information Security Management System to protect customers’ data and maintain the security of stakeholders’ information assets in 2017.

BRAC Bank was also the first among the banks in Bangladesh to have established a 24x7 security operations center (SOC) in 2018 and fulfilled this cyber security mandate of Bangladesh Bank.

The ISO 18788:2015 for Cyber Security Operations and Fusion Center will also enable the bank to effectively manage the SOC.

Commenting on the achievement, the bank’s Managing Director and CEO Selim R. F. Hussain said, “We are delighted to have received the ISO 18788 accreditation. BRAC Bank is driven by a clear vision - to be the best bank in the country. In order to become the best, our focus is on making ourselves better on compliance and customers’ banking experience. In order to ensure secured and seamless digital customer experience, it is important that we become resilient to cyber threats, demonstrate strong commitment towards data protection and maintain the confidentiality and integrity of data and information assets. The certification is a key milestone in our digital transformation journey”.

ISO 18788:2015 certification directly contributes to 16th goal of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) in the area of Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions.

Banking is all about serving the people. Bankers always strive to find out ways how contribute to the economy, guard people’s savings, help them to prosper and include them in the development of the nation.

However, they also have another role to play. They go beyond their banking duties, come out of their desk and serve the people and community with love and care. Often, they come forward to respond to the call of humanity.

What’s more noble than to raise fund together and donate the amount to the charitable organizations. This is their way to serve the people and society!

It all started in 2011 when BRAC Bank pioneered the idea of a fundraiser marathon, a first in the country, inspiring all employees to voluntarily donate for the social cause. The bank commits to match the amount 100% from its CSR fund and the total amount is then donated to the charitable organizations. Since then they run in Agargaon around the parliament and in Hatirjheel. Whenever they run, the philosophy of standing beside the less fortune of the society remain same.

Every year they organize the run full of passion and unwavering commitment, symbolizing the very brand promise of BRAC Bank.

Over the last nine years, DOUR has created a distinctive mark as an employee-initiated CSR initiative.

It has also led to development of running habit among the corporate executives and young people who are conscious about health and welling. Initially planned only for BRAC Bank officials, DOUR is now open to all, a gesture to involve the community and serve the people together. Now DOUR has earned a place in almanac of sports and running enthusiasts in Bangladesh.

One guest participant who finished 10^th said: “I proudly hold my DOUR crest and tell my friends about the examples BRAC Bank is setting in Bangladesh. DOUR goes beyond humanitarian cause, the most important aspect is that it sends wave of lifestyle change among the youth who now take up running passionately because of DOUR.”

This year, the bankers will brave the morning fog and cold and run for the humanity on February 14, 2020 in Hatirjheel.

BRAC Bank has donated more than BDT 1 crore to the charities and distributed one lakh warm clothes under DOUR initiative. Social organizations like Diganta Memorial Cancer Foundation, Association for the Aged and Institute of Geriatric Medicine, Protibondhi Foundation, Subarta Trust, Thalassaemia Samity, CRP-Savar, Rights & Sight for Children, Deepshikha School, Changing Diabetes in Children-BIRDEM etc. are now better off after DOUR contribution.

BRAC Bank’s Managing Director & CEO, Selim R.F. Hussain, said, “As a values-based organization belonging to the larger BRAC Family, corporate responsibility is embedded in the DNA of the Bank. I am encouraged to see the passion and spontaneity in our colleagues to contribute to society. DOUR is an amazing example of employee-driven CSR initiative. We will take the annual marathon to a newer level in coming years. We strongly believe that together we can make a difference in people’s lives."

Let’s join the run and work for the humanity.

Dhaka, Monday, January 13, 2020: As part of its commitment to support Green Banking, BRAC Bank, today, has introduced Paperless Personal Identification Number (PIN) for its debit cardholders. PIN generation for cards has historically been an awkward paper-based process. Making it paperless enables the bank to securely transmit card PINs at the cardholder’s convenience, abstaining the old complex procedure.

BRAC Bank customers, after getting hold of the debit card, can now generate their own PIN via phone banking. They will call the BRAC Bank call centre (16221 or +8809611223344, +880255668055-6) from their registered phone number and with the assistance of a call centre agent activate their debit card and also set a PIN of their own choice. This gives the customer a hassle-free and secured banking experience. Earlier, the customers had to wait for delivery of paper-based PIN that could get delayed due to many reasons.

Commenting on this initiative, Mahiul Islam, BRAC Bank’s Head of Retail Banking, said: “BRAC Bank is committed to enhance customer’s banking experience through digitalization. In this era, Paperless PIN generation for debit cards is one of our many customer-centric and Green Banking initiatives. It also significantly simplifies the manual process of paper-based PIN printing thereby reducing carbon footprint. We aim to bring more innovative solutions soon for our customers”.

BRAC Bank is one of the founding members of the Global Alliance for Banking on Values (GABV). Founded in 2009, GABV is a network of banking leaders from around the world that are committed to advancing positive change, including green banking, in the banking sector. BRAC Bank is the only representative to the GABV forum from Bangladesh.

BRAC Bank’s special loan to support families with emergency finance

Dhaka, Thursday, November 21, 2019: Prevalence of cancer is rising globally. This deadly disease poses big health threat around the world.

Cancer has become one of the major causes of mortality among the non-communicable diseases in Bangladesh. Approximately, 15 lakh cancer patients exist in Bangladesh and each year around 1.5 lakh new patients are diagnosed with cancer. The lack of cancer awareness, early detection, inadequate medical and public health infrastructure and the lack of cancer-prevention funding continue to worsen the situation in the country.

Cancer comes as a big financial burden to the patient and the family as well. The good news is early detection and proper treatment can significantly increase chance of survival and improve post-treatment wellbeing of the patient. Financial constraint is one of the major barriers to proper treatment, especially in countries like Bangladesh.

In this this backdrop, BRAC Bank Limited and Radiant Business Consortium Limited, the authorized importer and distributor of Roche medicines in Bangladesh, will introduce “Special Featured Healthcare Loan” for selective Roche medicines for cancer patients. Roche is a major producer of lifesaving cancer medicines including chemotherapy.

Dewan Imteaz Ahmed, Head of Retail Lending, BRAC Bank; and Arshad Mahmood, Director Finance, Radiant Pharmaceuticals Limited; signed a memorandum of understanding to this effect on November 6, 2019 in Dhaka. Adriano Antonio Treve, Area Head, Central Eastern Europe, Turkey, Russia, and Indian Subcontinent; Md. Nasser Shahrear Zahedee, Chairman, Radiant; and Dr. Mohammad Afroz Jalil, Country Manager, Roche Bangladesh Limited, were also present.
