NRBC Bank has launched a new service, 'Quick Response (QR) Statement Enablement,' allowing authorities and institutions to verify the authenticity and accuracy of customer bank statements instantly by scanning a QR code.

Under the new system, scanning the QR code printed on the statement via a smartphone will display the verified account details directly on the screen, streamlining the validation process for third parties.

Bank statements are routinely submitted for various critical procedures, including foreign embassy visa applications, bank loan approvals, and institutional evaluations. NRBC Bank introduced the digital verification tool to eliminate long waiting times and ensure transparency, ease, and document security.

NRBC Bank Board Chairman Md. Ali Hossain Prodhania inaugurated the service at a program held at a capital hotel. Presided over by Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Dr. Md. Touhidul Alam Khan, FCMA, the event was attended by Risk Management Committee Chairman Md. Nurul Haq, Audit Committee Chairman Muhammad Emdad Ullah, FCMA, FCA, CPA, Independent Directors Md. Abul Bashar, Md. Anwar Hossain, and Barrister Md. Shafiqur Rahman, Deputy Managing Director and Chief Operating Officer Mohammad Abdul Qaiyum Khan, Deputy Managing Director and Chief Business Officer Md. Shaheen Howlader, and ICT Operations Division Head Md. Rajidul Islam.

Highlighting the initiative, Board Chairman Md. Ali Hossain Prodhania stated that adopting digital solutions is essential to ensuring transparency and accountability. He noted that the QR-based verification system will allow relevant authorities to cross-check statement details instantly, saving time and reducing hassle for customers while supporting good governance.

NRBC Bank Managing Director and CEO Dr. Md. Touhidul Alam Khan emphasized that bank statements are crucial legal and financial documents, but instances of forged or altered statements have periodically posed risks to financial institutions and national reputation.
