Bangladesh Bank has aligned its recruitment policy with a recent government ordinance, raising the maximum age limit for entering jobs at non-bank financial institutions (NBFIs) to 32. Previously, the age limit for such positions was 30. This change comes after the Ministry of Law, Justice, and Parliamentary Affairs issued an ordinance extending the age limit for direct recruitment in government jobs and related institutions, including autonomous, semi-autonomous bodies, and public corporations, to 32 years.
In response to this ordinance, Bangladesh Bank issued a notification on Thursday, setting the new age threshold for direct recruitment in financial institutions at 32, bringing it in line with government jobs. This move aims to expand the pool of eligible candidates for roles in both public and financial sectors, offering more opportunities for younger job seekers.
