Phnom Penh, July 16 — ACLEDA Bank announced today the release to the general public of its new 'Unity' mobile phone banking service. A virtual 'bank in your pocket' — it provides a convenient and secure way to manage all daily banking transactions any day, anytime, anywhere. It communicates in both the English and Khmer languages and handles transactions in Khmer Riels, US Dollars and Thai Baht, with other currencies to follow.

"Our aim is to offer access to financial services to the whole community," said Mr. In Channy, ACLEDA Bank's President & CEO. "Unity works with all mobile phone networks and a very wide range of mobile handsets. It unites a whole selection of financial services under one umbrella that simplifies day-to-day banking through mobile phones anywhere in the country. For those customers who have global roaming it will even work throughout the world," he stated.

Operating on a 24/7 basis, with high-level multilayer security features, the bank claims that Unity gives customers the choice of using text message (SMS), Mobile Browser/WAP or a dedicated downloadable application interface, according to which best suits their needs. They can view their account balances, obtain a mini-statement, transfer between their accounts, make payments to other people, make bill payments (pay their utility bills and other accounts) and top-up their mobile phones. Other services will be added in the future as customers demand.

Mr. IN Channy, President & CEO of ACLEDA Bank Plc.
