Sana Kisan Bikas Bank Limited (SKBBL) is a national-level wholesale microfinance development bank in Nepal, established with the mission of strengthening the cooperative and rural finance ecosystem. Founded on July 6, 2001, the bank operates under the regulation of the Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) and plays a pivotal role in empowering small farmers, micro-entrepreneurs, and rural communities through financial access, capacity-building, and technical support. Unlike retail microfinance institutions, SKBBL works primarily as a wholesale lender, providing credit, refinancing, and institutional development services to Small Farmers Agricultural Cooperatives (SFACLs), microfinance institutions, and community-based organizations across Nepal. The bank also supports agricultural modernization, climate-resilient farming practices, rural enterprise development, and sustainable livelihood programs. With its corporate office located in Kathmandu Metropolitan City-11, Sana Kisan Bikas Bank emphasizes responsible banking, transparent governance, and socio-economic upliftment. The institution is widely recognized for its contribution to inclusive rural finance, poverty reduction, and cooperative-driven financial empowerment in Nepal.
