Bangladesh makes slight progress in Business Climate Index

Bangladesh made a slight improvement in the Business Climate Index (BBX) in 2022.

Last year, the country scored 61.95 out of 100, up from 61.01 in 2021, under the index prepared by the Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MCCI) in Dhaka, and the Policy Exchange, Bangladesh, a private think tank.

Commerce Minister Tipu Munshi unveiled the index, now in its second year, at a seminar at the MCCI today.

The MCCI and the Policy Exchange Bangladesh jointly prepared the BBX after the World Bank stopped publishing its Ease of Doing Business Index in 2021.

The index was launched to measure the business environment in Bangladesh.
