In a filing on the Dhaka Stock Exchange today, IPDC said cash outflow for loan disbursements was higher against negative cash flow from deposits, resulting in a negative cash flow from operating activities.

Loans, leases and advances grew and deposits experienced degrowth, it said, adding that the surplus liquidity of 2021 was utilised in 2022 for the disbursement of loans and advances.

"However, the overall cash position in 2022 was positive."
