The Central Bank of Sri Lanka (CBSL) will launch the ‘Anti-Pyramid National Awareness Week’ from tomorrow (14).

Accordingly, the ‘National Awareness Week’ launch by the Financial Consumer Relations Department of the CBSL will be worked off until July 18, under the theme of: “Pyramid is a trap – don’t get into the wrong track.”

The campaign aims to raise widespread awareness of prohibited pyramid schemes and the significant risks they pose to individuals and the broader economy, the CBSL noted.

It is expected to generate substantial national awareness among a wide cross-section of the population, including school students and teachers, officers of the Tri-Forces, Civil Security Department personnel, officers of Sri Lanka Police, government sector employees and the general public.

The Central Bank stated that outreach activities will be carried out through 6,172 schools and 14,022 Grama Niladhari (GN) divisions’ island-wide, ensuring extensive grassroot-level coverage and community engagement
