StanChart showcases Bangladesh’s growth through roadshow

Standard Chartered Bangladesh hosted a roadshow for global investors and lenders to help local businesses build lasting relationships with leading investment and lending institutions from the Middle East, Europe, and Asia.

With the participation of 121 individuals representing various lending organisations and institutional investment bodies from the Middle East, Europe and Asia, the roadshow was organised in collaboration with Standard Chartered's regional financing solutions and distributions team, a press release said.

As a part of the roadshow, designated speakers outlined recent business developments, shared outlook for high-potential sectors, and showcased notable success stories in Bangladesh.

Speakers reflected on how despite current challenges, Bangladesh has maintained steady growth while exhibiting high levels of resilience and grit. "As a nation, Bangladesh is at a point of inflection. Stable macroeconomic indicators in conjunction with strong post-pandemic recovery measures have established our nation as one of two Asian economies delivering constant growth despite the current market uncertainties," said Naser Ezaz Bijoy, chief executive officer of Standard Chartered Bangladesh.

Enamul Huque, managing director for client coverage, head of corporate, commercial and institutional banking at Standard Chartered Bangladesh, Muhit Rahman, managing director and head of financial markets, and Md Maroof ur Rahman Mazumder, executive director and head of financing solutions, also joined the event.
