Bangladesh’s foreign exchange reserves have climbed to $31.31 billion, according to a press release from Bangladesh Bank. However, when calculated under the IMF’s BPM6 methodology, which provides a standardized global framework, the reserve stands lower at $26.33 billion. The discrepancy arises from differing accounting practices, where BPM6 excludes certain unusable funds. The update was shared on Sunday, highlighting the country’s ongoing efforts to maintain a healthy reserve level amid global economic challenges and policy reforms under the IMF’s guidance.
