Bangladesh must rethink how it finances its infrastructure. The current system is too weak to bear the weight of an aspiring middle-income nation. Highways, ports, power grids, water systems, health facilities, education, digital networks, business districts and technology hubs all demand massive investment if the country is to become a developed economy.
Bangladesh has achieved remarkable progress over recent decades, driven by exports, remittances and a dynamic private sector. Yet in a world of growing volatility from geopolitical shifts, energy price shocks and currency swings, resilience alone is no longer enough. Safeguarding our economic stability must begin with how we manage foreign exchange reserves.
