Bangladesh: A Compelling Long-term Growth Story

Bangladesh is one of the most fascinating economies in the Asian market, with a strong macroeconomic scenario and impressive GDP growth. In fact, since its independence in 1971, Bangladesh has not experienced a single year of GDP contraction. With a growth rate of over 6% since 2010, it has surpassed India in terms of GDP per capita. Bangladesh is attracting foreign direct investments due to its shifting supply chain and is becoming a major consumer market. Its young population, with half below 25 years old, provides a vast labor supply. The high female labor participation rate and investment in education contribute to the expanding consumer market, making it one of the fastest rising markets globally.
