Current Market Trends and Investment Incentives in Bangladesh (FY 2024-2025)

Image
The investment climate in Bangladesh is showing a mixed but resilient picture, therefore, investors must be smart and selective. While Net Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) inflow has seen a rebound, this growth is largely fueled by reinvested earnings and inter-company loans from existing foreign companies. New equity investment , which signals fresh commitment to the country, has shown recent declines. This trend means that confidence remains high among those already operating here. Therefore, focusing on stable, high-growth sectors remains the core strategy for PPB clients. 📈 Key Market Trends for Investors Bangladesh is strategically positioned for growth, which is why it remains a popular destination for global manufacturing. The country acts as a gateway to South and Southeast Asia, offering access to a massive consumer base. However, investors must navigate some economic challenges, such as currency volatility and banking sector reforms. High-Growth Sectors for Investment C...

🏦 The Eighth Compass: Sourcing Capital and Loan Applications

Image
A project report is only a piece of paper until it attracts money, because capital is the fuel for your engine. After establishing feasibility, the next task is securing the necessary finance. This involves choosing the right mix of debt and equity and structuring a compelling loan application. Project Profile Bangladesh (PPB) helps you package your report. Therefore, we ensure your project speaks the demanding language of bankers and investors, while highlighting the most attractive financial features. ⚖️ Structuring Capital: Debt vs. Equity A business must decide how to pay for its growth, which is a key strategic decision. Capital can come from two main sources: Debt (loans) or Equity (selling ownership shares). The right mix—the Capital Structure —is vital. Too much debt means high interest payments and risk. Too much equity means giving away too much control and future profit. We model various scenarios to find the optimal balance. Debt Financing: The Bank Loan Debt provides ...
