AN EXPLORATORY STUDY INTO THE FINANCIAL FITNESS OF BSB

“An Exploratory study into The Financial Fitness of BSB (Bangladesh Shilpa Bank) with Regard to Its Performance Over 1972-2008”



Abstract

In this article we provide the critical evaluation of monetary policy, financial sector partners and Bangladesh Shilpa Bank policy in Bangladesh during and after recent financial crisis. We find, in particular, that prudential supervision failed to predict depth of crisis, and although they expressed some concerns, if not taken before it was taken (partly due to lack of prudential levers). During crisis, making interest rate may be unduly delayed, while quantitative easing policy could have been more effective if focused on private sector assets, and bank rescue strategy focused too little on implications for competition. Exit strategies on horizon yet, but it is essential to be well designed to avoid risks of inflation and moral hazard on one hand, and new recession and credit crunch on other. The successful return to growth is financial sector and economy to work well together, for example in relation to housing market, investment and banking and financial market conditions, including potential impact of regulatory reforms . Are some potential difficulties, including overvaluation of prices for houses, commercial banks' losses on property potential, possible funding difficulties for banks and economic policy adjustment. All this at the risk point of current credit crunch could hinder growth in coming years.
