French urged to explore stock market for fund raising
Visiting trade team calls on CSE president


Chittagong Stock Exchange (CSE) President Habibullah Khan has urged the visiting French trade delegation to increase French investment in Bangladesh.

He said French companies can explore the capital market of Bangladesh for raising funds.

Khan made the observations while talking to a group of French entrepreneurs who visited the CSE on Wednesday. The delegation was led by Philipe Vindry, president delegate of Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Paris (CCIP), said a CSE press release.

Khan said Lafarge Surma Cement, a leading Cement company in the world, raised a huge capital from the stock markets for setting up its project in Bangladesh. "Bangladeshi investors always greet such foreign project overwhelmingly."
