Mutual Trust Bank PLC (MTB) has signed a participation agreement with Bangladesh Bank under the Tk. 3,000 crore ‘Refinance Scheme for Export Diversification’ on September 01, 2026. Through this initiative, MTB will support promising export-oriented sectors, helping businesses explore new opportunities and contributing to the diversification and growth of Bangladesh’s export sector.
Chowdhury Akhter Asif, Additional Managing Director & CBO of MTB, and A. K. M. Nurunnabi, Director, Sustainable Finance Department of Bangladesh Bank, signed the agreement on behalf of their respective organizations.
Bangladesh’s export economy has historically remained concentrated in a limited number of products, creating both market and product concentration risks. Against this backdrop, the refinance scheme has been introduced to facilitate financing for promising export-oriented sectors with the potential to broaden the country’s export basket. Sectors such as jute and leather, which can source a significant portion of their raw materials domestically, hold considerable potential for generating foreign exchange and expanding Bangladesh’s presence in international markets. However, financing constraints have remained a key barrier to unlocking this potential. The initiative is therefore designed to help channel affordable financing towards eligible industries, enabling them to enhance production capacity, develop exportable products, explore new markets, create employment and contribute to a more balanced and resilient trade environment.
The agreement signing ceremony was attended by Tahmina Zaman Khan, Head of Sustainable Finance Department, MTB; A.T.M. Nesarul Hoque, Unit Head, Financial Institutions Services Department, MTB; Md. Abu Alam Mohsin, Additional Director, Bangladesh Bank; and Sajib Kumar Das, Joint Director, Bangladesh Bank.
Through its participation in this Bangladesh Bank initiative, MTB aims to facilitate greater access to finance for promising export-oriented enterprises and contribute to the emergence of new products, industries, and international markets.
