Bangladesh’s foreign exchange reserves stood at $35.33 billion, according to the latest data released Tuesday by Bangladesh Bank (BB).
However, under the International Monetary Fund (IMF)’s BPM6 accounting methodology, the country’s reserves amounted to $30.58 billion, the central bank said.
The difference reflects the IMF’s stricter calculation framework, which excludes certain short-term or encumbered assets to present a clearer picture of readily available reserves.
