Finance Adviser seeks World Bank, IFC assistance for reforms
The government has sought support from the World Bank and its private sector arm the International Finance Corporation (IFC) once again.
Finance Adviser Dr Salehuddin Ahmed had discussions with delegation from the World Bank and the IFC here on Sunday, seeking technical and financial assistance to implement the reform programmes.
“Today we discussed reforms in the financial sector and revenue board with the World Bank, and private investment with the IFC,” he told newsmen, following the meeting with the delegation at his Bangladesh Secretariat office.
Mr Ahmed said he will discuss further on the funding requirement with the high-ups of the World Bank as he is scheduled to attend the annual meetings of the multilateral lender to be held in Washington, USA next month.
Replying to a query, he said the interim government has sought assistance from many other development partners to take forward the economy.
They will provide funds for socio-economic development of the country, he added.
World Bank Regional Vice President for South Asia Martin Raiser, Country Director Abdoulaye Seck and Operations Manager for Bangladesh Gayle Martin, IFC South Asia Regional Director Imad Fakhoury, Chief Risk Officer Vivek Pathak, and Senior Country Officer for Bangladesh Kazi Farhan Zahir, were present, among others, at the meeting.
