The Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD) has said that the government’s target to bring inflation down to 7.5 percent in the proposed 2026–27 fiscal year budget is nearly impossible. The observation came at a press conference titled “National Budget 2026–27: CPD’s Review” held at Lakeshore Hotel in Dhaka, where CPD Executive Director Fahmida Khatun presented the analysis. She noted that the budget was announced amid multiple economic challenges, including prolonged high inflation, weak growth, low private investment, employment stagnation, revenue shortfall, and a fragile banking sector.
According to CPD, the proposed budget emphasizes human development, private sector–driven growth, and social protection to ensure economic recovery. It also aligns in several areas with the BNP’s election manifesto, particularly regarding employment generation, private investment, deregulation, and social sector development. CPD stressed that the success of the budget will depend on implementation quality rather than its size.
The organization added that strong and effective institutions are essential for achieving the budget’s goals. It described the budget as a major test for the new government to demonstrate its ability to drive economic recovery, boost investment, and advance structural reforms.
