3rd Loan Tranche: IMF team to focus on four key areas
Forex reserves, inflation, banking sector, revenue reforms to come up
for talks
During its visit to Dhaka, the International Monetary Fund's review
mission will focus on Bangladesh's foreign exchange reserves, inflation rate,
banking sector, and revenue reforms.
The 10-member IMF mission is scheduled to reach Dhaka today, and from tomorrow,
it will begin to hold meetings with the finance division, Bangladesh Bank, the
National Board of Revenue, and other government bodies.
The mission will stay in Dhaka until May 8. The IMF has already sent
more than 100 questions to the government officials.
Since the IMF approved the $4.7 billion loan for Bangladesh in
January last year, the multilateral lender has so
far released $1.16 billion in two tranches.
