Abu Jafar and senior executives of the Bank were present at the event organized at the bank’s head office on Tuesday, August 4, 2026.
Speaking on the occasion, Mohd.

He reaffirmed the bank’s commitment to leveraging modern technology to provide secure, efficient, and customer-centric banking solutions. He also encouraged expatriate Bangladeshis to continue sending remittances through formal banking channels to contribute to the country’s economic development.
The introduction of NPSB connectivity is expected to significantly enhance customer convenience by enabling real-time interbank fund transfers nationwide while further strengthening confidence in secure and formal remittance channels.
