Interim Government Finance Advisor Salehuddin Ahmed has sat in a meeting with stakeholders to find ways to de-crisis the capital market.

The meeting started at 10 am on Tuesday (January 7) at Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE), the country’s main capital market, at Nikunj in the capital.

The current situation of the capital market and the development roadmap are being discussed in the meeting.

Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (BSEC), Bangladesh Bank, National Board of Revenue (NBR), Chittagong Stock Exchange (CSE), DSE Brokers Association of Bangladesh (DBA), Bangladesh Merchant Bankers Association (BMBA), Central Depository Bangladesh Limited (CDBL) ), Central Counterparty Bangladesh Limited (CCBL), Investment Corporation of Bangladesh (ICB), Financial Reporting Council (FRC) representatives are present.

According to related sources, there is a turbulent situation in the capital market. After the July-August student uprising, the economic indicators turned around, but there was no impact on the capital market. As a result, the crisis of confidence among all stakeholders including investors, stock brokers, merchant bankers has emerged more strongly.

Earlier, the financial advisor had a meeting with the officials at the capital market regulatory body Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (BSEC) office last October.
