Bangladesh receives $328m in remittances in 5 days of August
  Bangladesh received $328 million remittance in the first five days of August of the fiscal year 2025-26. According to the latest data from the Bangladesh Bank, in the same period of the previous fiscal year, the amount was $181 million. The central bank's report, released on Wednesday, shows a significant year-on-year increase of 81.6 percent compared to 1-5 August 1-5 of FY2024-25. The expatriates sent a record $2.48 billion remittance in the first month of the fiscal year 2025-26.
The central bank's report showed a significant year-on-year increase of 29.48 percent in FY2025-26 compared to July of the previous FY2024-25, when remittances totaled $1.91 billion. In the FY2024-25 fiscal year also saw a record-breaking remittance inflow, with a total of $30.33 billion. This represents a 27 percent increase from the $23.74 billion received in the FY2023-24, setting a new all-time high for a single fiscal year, he pointed out.
