Independent Review of
RBD
Bangladesh's Development
Recommendations
Liquidity support is inappropriate for small borrowers and new
borrowers, as well as those who are the poorest and most vulnerable.
Therefore, direct cash support should be provided by the government so
that these groups can adjust to the shocks of COVID-19.
Corruption in targeting and selection of beneficiaries of cash
transfer programmes must be addressed immediately.
A multi-stakeholder taskforce with representatives from
various ministries, central bank, commercial banks, trade
bodies, civil society, non-government organisations (NGOs).
And academia should be formed for monitoring the delivery of
the COVID-19 liquidity support and fiscal stimulus packages
and assessing their effectiveness.
