Remittance: No need to submit papers to get incentive
Bangladesh Bank yesterday relaxed the rules related to a 2.5 per cent cash bonus offered as an incentive to remitters if they send money home through official channels.
High and low tide of inward remittance
Till the end of May our inbound remittance totaled $19.19 billion, $3.6 billion dollar less than that last year. With the current downward trend, in an optimistic estimate, we can eye a near $21 billion by the end of the financial year which would be 15 per cent less on a year-on-year basis. But based on this figure alone will it be justified to arrive at a decision that the magic of remittance have waned, we have run out of means to fill the increasing trade gaps, and are quickly embracing a bleak financial future? Before siding with a yes or a no let us revisit the trend of remittance flow.
