Foreign direct investment in Bangladesh seems on a dive as the net FDI inflow marked about 30-percent annualized fall in the first quarter of this year, under lingering shadows of global economic upset. Latest statistics available with the central bank show the ebb tide in flow of foreign capital into the country, acting as one of major factors for its deficit in financial account. Among the other reasons the country sees prolonged balance-of-payments (BoP) shortfall are below-par remittance and export receipts, according to finance officials and economists. The unhappy development in the area of inbound overseas investment comes at a time when the 450-billion-plus economy is passing tough times amid forex dearth in the wake of the country’s falling foreign-currency reserves. In the January-March period of 2023, the FDI-starved Bangladesh received net inflow of overseas investment equivalent to US$ 626.47 million, down 29.49 per cent from US$ 888.48 million recorded in the same period of time a year before. According to the BB data, the gross volume of forex reserves remained on a slide, amounting to $29.85 billion as of July 19, 2023 by official count, but the net volume of reserves under the IMF’s BPM6 manual is equivalent to $23.45 billion.
