Deep concern surrounds foreign investment climate
The Foreign Investors Chamber of Commerce and Industries (FICCI), an organisation of foreign investors operating in Bangladesh, expressed concern about the future of foreign investment in the country during a post-budget press conference. They emphasised that investment, whether local or foreign, is a long-term activity, and thus, policy consistency is crucial to attract and retain investment. Frequent policy changes can spook both local and foreign investors. In particular, foreign investors seek policy continuity for the safety of their capital, as withdrawing investment from a country or region is not a simple process.
