US manufacturing slump continues into 10th month

The slump in US manufacturing activity continued for a 10th consecutive month in August amid ongoing softness in new orders, survey data showed Friday, with some signs pointing to an improving situation.

Global economy loses steam as Chinese, European factories falter

Editorial / Not a rosy picture for industry

ACCORDING to an international survey carried out by VeriskMaplecroft, Bangladesh's aspirations to become a major gateway for international manufacturing is in for a shock. Having being ranked 35 out of 100 cities most vulnerable to natural disasters, it is imperative for the government to factor in the exposure of future industries and industrial belts to natural vagaries. Dhaka has been identified as the worse affected followed by Barisal, Chittagong, Khulna and Narayanganj. Sadly Dhaka is the premium industrial centre for the country.
