World economy and Bangladesh perspective

Abstract

The global scenario looks quite bleak and the impact on our economy although not too visible at this point but seems to be alarming in the days ahead. Import of capital machinery has gone down, there is a huge reserve of idle money in the bank as investment has slowed down, manpower export is expected to be almost half the target achieved last year and the rising food prices in the international market due to widespread draught signalize a very tough year ahead for our economy.
