During a webinar hosted by the Bangladesh Investment Development Authority (Bida), local and foreign investors expressed concerns over the law and order situation and unreliable energy supply. They identified five key investment challenges: corruption, poor economic performance, lack of stakeholder consultation, policy inconsistency, and limited resource access.
Lutfey Siddiqi, special envoy on international affairs, and Ashik Chowdhury, Bida’s executive chairman, highlighted government efforts to address these issues, including plans for tax breaks to boost renewable energy investments and improve service efficiency. Chowdhury also emphasized the need for policy consistency and transparency in resource availability, while addressing corruption through digital operations. Zaved Akhter, president of the Foreign Investors Chamber of Commerce and Industry, underscored the importance of effective collaboration with bureaucracy to enhance the investment climate in Bangladesh.
