Dhaka: Bangladesh’s foreign exchange reserves have reached US$32.11 billion.
According to Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha, the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) methodology under the Balance of Payments and International Investment Position Manual (BPM6) assesses Bangladesh’s foreign exchange reserves at $27.35 billion. This information was released in the latest data from the Bangladesh Bank (BB) today.
The difference in figures highlights the varying methodologies used for calculating foreign exchange reserves. The IMF’s BPM6 methodology provides an alternative perspective on the reserves, which is lower than the figure reported by Bangladesh Bank.
