Bangladesh Bank Governor Dr. Ahsan H. Mansur has announced that the repo interest rate will remain at 10% for now but may decrease in the coming months—if inflation drops below 7%. “We've made some progress in curbing inflation, which now stands around 8.5%. We want it to go below 3%, or I won't be satisfied,” said the governor. He emphasized a dual strategy of managing inflation through both supply and demand measures. Despite last year’s dollar crisis, essential imports like electricity, fertilizer, and LNG were not disrupted. He noted that interest rates on treasury bills and bonds have already decreased from 12% to 10%.
