July 8, Fineko/abc.az. Bangladesh is considering its debut issuance of sovereign bonds on international markets to finance rising government spending.

According to reports, an inter-ministerial committee has been established to review the parameters of the issuance. The placement is expected to help reduce reliance on domestic banks and concessional loans, while also establishing a benchmark for external borrowing by companies. Both dollar-denominated bonds and a "panda" bond option in China are currently under consideration. This decision comes amid plans to increase government spending by 19% to support the economy.
