Low-income people need to be brought under banking service
Says governor
UNB, Dhaka
Bangladesh Bank Governor Dr Fakhruddin Ahmed, before finishing his onerous job, made a call yesterday for his colleagues in the central bank to take a challenge of bringing more people from the low-income group under the banking services."It's the future challenge of the banking sector," he told the bank executives, appreciating their contribution to the ongoing reforms in the financial sector, which he claimed to be immensely beneficial for the country's economic development. He was addressing a meeting of the central bank officials as he was sharing his working experience before saying goodbye. Fakhruddin's contract as the central bank governor expires on April 30, after serving for three years and five months to lead a huge reform programme in the banking and financial sector that attracted wide appreciation.
