Bank of Maldives has announced the launch of a new home financing facility designed for employees in the tourism sector who earn income in US dollars. The product offers one of the lowest home financing rates available in the country at 7.5 percent per annum, excluding the Hiyaavehi financing scheme, providing tourism sector workers with an affordable pathway to homeownership across the Maldives.

This product is designed to make financing more accessible for resort, guesthouse, hotel, and safari vessel employees, who play a vital role in the Maldivian economy. The tourism industry is the backbone of our nation, and this facility reflects our commitment to supporting employees of the largest industry and their families.
Mr Mohamed Shareef, Bank of Maldives’ CEO and Managing Director

The facility is available to Maldivian nationals employed at resorts, guesthouses and hotel properties and safari vessels within the tourism sector, where remuneration is received in US dollars. Income assessment will consider both salary and service charge income, which must be routed through the Bank of Maldives.

A Shariah-compliant version of the product is available through BML Islamic, ensuring the facility is accessible to all eligible customers in accordance with their preferred financing arrangements.
