Banking sector reforms must be based on reality

This government-backed family has become a liability to the banking sector. Dr. Mansur also announced that the Bank Resolution Act is being formulated to address banking failures. Some state-owned banks are also struggling, and measures will be taken to prevent the Financial Institutions Division of the Ministry of Finance from interfering in banking operations. The Bangladesh Bank will be allowed to function independently. However, the Governor did not explicitly state what would happen to banks that cannot be saved or how they would be phased out. His remarks, however, indicate that major changes are on the horizon for the banking industry.
