Govt securities’ trade to begin in secondary market from Monday
Trading of government securities will start on the stock exchanges from Monday in a bid to ease general investors' participation in treasury bonds and bills.
Government treasury bonds and treasury bills are now traded at Over The Counter (OTC) and Anonymous Order Matching trading platform, Bangladesh Bank said in a circular.
To ease the participation of general investors in the bonds and bills, the trading would be allowed on the trading platforms of the Dhaka Stock Exchange and the Chittagong Stock Exchange on a test run basis.
It is going to end the wait of more than a decade and create one more investment tool for the retail investors dependent only on shares and mutual funds.
