Experts at a discussion have recommended allowing foreign direct investment in the garment sector, devaluation of local currency against US dollar and restructuring of the government incentives to help the sector cope with the existing problems. These steps would also help diversify both markets and products. According to the BGMEA data presented at the meeting, some 73 per cent of the country’s total readymade garment exports ($34.13 billion) are concentrated on only five items; prices of 83 per cent of exports range up to $15 per kg and 74.14 per cent of the exports are cotton based. The data also show that about 83.34 per cent of the total RMG exports go to European Union and North America. Policy Research Institute of Bangladesh (PRI) Chairman Dr Zaidi Sattar said allowing foreign direct investment in the sector would help product diversification within the industry. Incentives should be given to the targeted groups such as entrepreneurs who are producing value-added or upgraded items, managing waste efficiently and exporting items to markets other than traditional US, EU and Canadian markets.
