Bangladesh Bank has reported that the country’s foreign exchange reserves currently stand at $25.64 billion.
However, according to the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) Balance of Payments and International Investment Position Manual (BPM6) methodology, the reserves are calculated at a lower figure of $20.27 billion.
The clarification came through a press release issued by the central bank on Thursday, highlighting the difference in calculation methods between the standard figure and the IMF-prescribed format.
