banks operating and funding costs, keeping interest rates high despite large
excess liquidity.
Based on the Monetary Policy Statement of Bangladesh Bank for the period
between January-June 2016, the following highlights may be noted:
Broad money (M2) is projected to grow at 15.0 percent in June 2016 from
14.2 percent in December 2015. M2 is adequate to support the growth and
inflation targets. It has also taken the growth rates of both public and
private credit into account. Domestic credit is projected to grow at 15.5
percent at the end of the fiscal year 2015- 2016 from 10.9 percent in
December 2015.
Private sector credit is projected to grow at 14.8 percent in June 2016 from
13.8 percent in December 2015. Public sector credit is expected to grow at
18.7 percent from a negative number of 1.7 percent in December 2015.
Inflation is expected to land in 6.07 percent in June 2016 from 6.20
percent in December 2015. Some effects of pay rise in the government
sector are likely to be canceled out by the dampening fuel and commodity
prices.
After keeping a static set of policy rates: repo and reverse repo rates for a
while, Bangladesh Bank has decided to lower the repo rate and reverse
repo rate by 50 basis points, sending the repo to 6.75 percent and reverse
repo to 4.75 percent from the previous rates. This move will attempt to
dampen other interest rates in the market and thus will help investment
stimulate. Necessary market alignments warranted this change.
The falling fuel and commodity prices have globally created a low-inflation
environment, paving the way for a considerable reduction in policy rates
and thus signaling the market to raise investment when macro stability is
commendable.
Bangladesh Bank made a strategic shift in loan disbursement policy. All
banks will be encouraged to substantially increase advances for micro,
small, and medium enterprises. Bangladesh Bank's supervisory vigilance
on banking governance will be straightened further to clamp down on loan
delinquencies.
The financial sector of Bangladesh is dominated by the banking entities. The
dominance of the banking sector highlights the crucial importance of the sector
in resource mobilization and economic growth. The role of the banking sector in
accelerating growth is contingent upon the soundness and depth of the sector. In
Bangladesh, the banking sector has travelled through a journey where the sector
has experienced several ups and downs. Presently, there are 56 scheduled banks
in Bangladesh which are fully under the supervision of Bangladesh Bank of which
4 State Owned Commercial Banks, 4 Specialized Banks, 31 Conventional Private
Commercial Banks, 8 Islami Shariah based Private commercial banks and 9
Foreign Commercial Banks.
NPL has become a major concern in the Banking Sector across the globe.
Banking system of Bangladesh gasps under an over 15 per cent rise in nonperforming loans (NPLs) in the first quarter (Q1) of this year, belying the central
bank surveillance. The volume of the bad loans rose to Tk 594.11 billion during
the January-March period of this calendar year from Tk 513.71 billion in the
preceding quarter. The share of NPLs in the lending operations of the banks rose
to 9.92 per cent during the period under review from 8.79 per cent three months
back. In general the volume of NPLs normally rises slightly during Q1 and Q3 of
each year as most bankers normally remain less serious in the Q1 for recovering
their classified loans. The classified loans cover substandard, doubtful and
bad/loss of total outstanding credits. These altogether stood at Tk 5986.48 billion
as on March 31 last. The amount of classified loans found a high rise because of
less rescheduling of unpaid loans and a relaxed trend in recovery.
During the January-March 2016 period, the total amount of NPLs with six stateowned commercial banks (SoCBs) rose to Tk 272.89 billion from Tk 237.45 billion
in the previous quarter. On the other hand, the volume of classified loans with 39
private commercial banks (PCBs) reached Tk 253.31 billion in the Q1 from Tk
207.60 billion three months ago. The NPLs with nine foreign commercial banks
(FCBs) came down to Tk 18.22 billion during the period under review from Tk
18.97 billion of the previous quarter. The classified loans with two developmentfinance institutions (DFIs) remained unchanged at Tk 49.69 billion in the Q1.
Banks' non-performing loans (NPL) have substantially declined in the second
quarter (Q2) of the outgoing fiscal due to central bank measures after several
large financial scams. The banks' capital adequacy ratio (CAR) to risk weighted
assets has also increased to 10.8 per cent in the Q2 from 10.5 percent in the Q1.
The total risk weighted asset of the sector grew 0.6 percent in the Q2, while the
total eligible capital increased by 3.6 percent. Besides, most banks see off 2015
with slight rise in profits.

To make banks resilient with the ongoing change of economy, BB is shifting from
a compliance-based approach to a forward-looking risk-based approach in
regulation and supervision. Basel-III, the revised regulatory capital framework,
has been implemented to improve the resilience of individual banking institutions
during the periods of stress, while addressing system-wide risks that arise across
the banking sector. Two new tools namely the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) and
Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) have been introduced for measuring liquidity
under Basel-III to ensure stronger and more targeted liquidity management of
banks. A Basel-III Compliance Unit has been established by each bank as per
instruction of BB, and steps have been taken to increase board awareness
through arranging meetings with the boards of non-compliant banks.
Given all the positive indications, the key challenge for banking industry now is
to attract good investors. Reportedly, the banks are sitting on huge idle money
but cannot lend due to absence of good projects/ borrowers. If the banking
industry of Bangladesh can tap the advantage of bullish economic growth of the
country and attract good projects/ investors, surely the banks will enjoy a more
fruitful year.
Trust Bank Limited is a private commercial Bank which does its banking activities
across the country with a vision of building long term sustainable financial
institution through financial inclusion and deliver optimum value to all
stakeholders with the highest level of compliance. Trust Bank Limited has
performed remarkably well during the year 2015 while the banking industry as a
whole suffered a sluggish growth due to increase in the defaulted loans, cut in
interest rates, excess liquidity burden and a lack of demand from the investors/
business people. During the year, Trust Bank had maintained satisfactory growth
of asset and liabilities and eventually a growth in its net profit. This incremental
growth has been possible due to the banks emphasis on sustainable business,
relentless effort and compliance.
