Writer Corporation, a leading Indian business group, has announced the launch of its subsidiary, Writer Business Services Pvt. Ltd., marking the beginning of its operations in Sri Lanka. This expansion underscores Sri Lanka’s strategic importance to Writer’s regional growth plans, especially in supporting a highly regulated digital and financial services market undergoing rapid digital transformation.
Sri Lanka is focusing on strengthening its regulatory frameworks, digital platforms, and financial systems, which is influencing how institutions in banking, government, and enterprise sectors conduct their operations. There’s a significant emphasis on creating secure, compliant, and resilient information and transaction environments that can adapt to regulatory and business needs. Writer’s entry into the Sri Lankan market aligns with these goals by introducing global experience and a partnership-driven approach.
As part of the launch, Writer will establish a secure records and information storage facility in Seeduwa, Colombo. This facility, designed to meet international standards for security, compliance, and disaster resilience, will aid banks, financial institutions, government bodies, and large enterprises in managing both physical and digital information throughout its lifecycle.
In addition to information management, Writer brings its expertise in integrated payment services to modernize the transaction infrastructure across the banking and financial services sector. Its payment solutions are focused on enhancing availability, transaction continuity, and transparency across essential payment channels, which are crucial for institutional reliability and customer confidence.
Writer’s digital payment offerings in Sri Lanka include comprehensive ATM and self-service terminal outsourcing, integrated channel ownership and managed services, field management applications, payment and reconciliation platforms, and remote monitoring with near real-time reporting. These solutions are designed to help financial institutions improve uptime, strengthen governance, and enhance operational efficiency across payment networks, aligning with the ongoing evolution of electronic and automated payment systems.
Writer operates with an integrated portfolio that spans records and information management, business process outsourcing, cloud and digital services, data privacy, cybersecurity, and enterprise payments infrastructure. These capabilities assist institutions in addressing evolving regulatory requirements, digitizing legacy environments, and mitigating rising operational and cyber risks.
Writer’s local presence will facilitate closer collaboration with clients and on-ground delivery, while also supporting the development of Centers of Excellence in areas such as cybersecurity operations, SOC and NOC services, AI-led solutions, and payments operations and monitoring.
Writer’s operations in Sri Lanka will be developed, led, and managed by Sri Lankan professionals, demonstrating a long-term commitment to nurturing local talent and growth.
Commenting on this development, Mr. Satyamohan Yanambaka, CEO of Writer Global Services Pvt. Ltd., reaffirmed Writer’s long-term commitment to supporting Sri Lanka’s digital ambitions. He stated, “Writer’s entry into Sri Lanka reflects our belief that digital ambition in regulated environments must be supported by trust, sound governance, and strong execution. As institutions scale digital services, the reliability of information and payment systems, channel operations, and governance frameworks becomes increasingly important to public and institutional confidence. Our experience across information management, digital transformation, and enterprise payments enables us to support secure, large-scale financial ecosystems, with a clear commitment to building and leading these capabilities locally.”
Sri Lanka’s Digital Personal Data Protection framework raises expectations regarding how personal and sensitive information is secured and governed. Writer is well-positioned to assist institutions in meeting these requirements through secure, compliant, and resilient information and payment operations, all supported by a long-term, partnership-oriented approach.
