NCSL Savings and Loans is Built for and owned by Members

In Papua New Guinea, most financial institutions prioritise profits over people. NCSL Savings and Loan takes a different approach. As a not- for-profit, member-owned society, NCSL must make a profit too to pay for its operations and invest in the further improvement of its
services. However, a portion of NCSL’s annual profit is returned to all members as annual interest deposited on the general savings account.

Savings

Save with or a purpose or just for a rainy day

Saving for school fees, home improvements, or a family emergency becomes easier with NCSL. Members enjoy simple, hassle-free savings with no hidden charges or account-keeping fees taking away from what they’ve worked hard to put aside. With a choice of savings products and competitive interest rates from 2% to 6% per annum, NCSL helps you grow your money faster while building a strong and consistent savings habit.

Lending

Fair, Transparent and Responsible Lending

As an NCSL member, your savings open the door to affordable personal loans you can use for any purpose. With interest rates starting from just 14% per annum, you get access to one of the most
cost-effective loan options available

For example, at 14% per annum, you repay the loan AFFORDABLY on the reducing balance each
month

Loan Amount Repayment Term
K500 K39.83 6 months
K1,000 K41.22 12 months

Unlike many lenders, NCSL also allows you to borrow without touching your savings, so your balance continues earning interest while you meet your immediate needs. It’s a smart way to stay financially
secure.

Convenient Digital Services

For busy people, NCSL’s MyNCSL Member Online allows members to manage their accounts
anytime, anywhere. Services include:

  • Withdrawals and transfers between NCSL accounts or to commercial banks
  • Viewing balances and downloading statements
  • Applying for loans online

These digital services make managing finances simple. No queues, no transport hassles, and no risk  of carrying cash on the streets. Just fast, secure and convenient access to your money whenever you need it.

A Society Built on Members’ Interests

Saving with NCSL gives you more than just a safe place to keep your money—it helps you build real financial security. With competitive savings interest and access to affordable loans when you need them, NCSL supports you in planning ahead, reaching your goals, and creating a stronger future for yourself and your family

NCSL Supports Home Seekers at Atlas Steel Open House

NCSL Savings and Loan was at the Atlas Steel PNG – Baruni during its Open House Day showcasing our financial solutions to interested home-owners on Saturday, December 6, 2025.

NCSL’s dedicated Business Relations Team was on-site to share detailed information about its savings and loan products, focusing on its flexible personal lending products that help members finance home
purchases even without a dedicated home loan product. Through higher ratio loans such as 1:2 and 1:5, members can maximize their savings to access funding for major expenses, including housing.
Several non-member visitors also ended up registering their membership to NCSL via the Wokabaut Tablet and MyNCSL member online. These new members received their membership numbers and had their accounts opened instantly marking the beginning of their financial journey with NCSL.

Among NCSL were other corporate entities like the National Superannuation Fund, National Banking
Corporation Ltd, Bank South Pacific Ltd, Nambawan Supa Ltd and few others.
