Inflation in Bangladesh
Inflation inched down to 9.2% in April (March: 9.3%) as food prices rose less. Inflation should be lower in CY 2023 than in CY 2022 on a tougher base effect. The removal of subsidies and controls on the exchange rate will be a key factor to watch ahead, as the government angles to receive further tranches of IMF financing.
