BRAC Bank has recently signed an agreement with Daffodil International University (DIU) to provide preferential benefits of Agami, a complete range of student banking services, says a statement.
Currently, Daffodil University has 19,000 students enrolled and 4,000 resident students in its 125-acre campus in Ashulia.
This agreement will enable Daffodil International University students to enjoy several benefits of the Agami proposition, including financing for their educational expenses with Agami Personal Loan, Agami Savers Account with a multi-currency debit card, a convenient Student File Service and Study Abroad Credit Card for the purpose of overseas studies.
Agami Personal Loan will give special privileges to meritorious students and general students to finance their education fees. Agami Personal Loan is the first-of-its-kind designed for financing education costs.
Agami Savers account is a charge-free account for students with many benefits. It provides opportunity to open an account with only Tk 250, avail a free multi-currency debit card and earn interest with any balance starting from Tk 1.0.
The students will get their first-year annual fee waived by 100 per cent for the Study Abroad Credit Card.
