Bankers in Bangladesh yesterday decided to further devalue taka against the US dollar to increase the flow of foreign currencies through formal channels, according to a top official of a private bank.
Exporters in Bangladesh are unable to take the full benefit of the devaluation of the taka against the US dollar amid ongoing inflationary pressure and rising production costs, according to industry people.
Bangladesh’s currency taka depreciated by 13.3 percent against the US dollar in 2022, said Financial Stability Report 2022 of Bangladesh Bank.
In recent months, the Bangladeshi taka has plummeted to new depths against the US dollar amid a worsening foreign exchange reserve crisis.
