Business scenario of Bangladesh

Doing business in Bangladesh

Featured question of the month is - what does it need to launch an import-export business in Bangladesh? A bonus question to add with it is - how much time does it take to solve insolvency problems?

Here is the hint, if not the whole answer: According to this website on 'Business Scenario of Bangladesh', six official documents are needed to start an import-export business. How much required? $965. But the website did not mention how much bribe it requires. Answer to the other question is interesting. It takes over two years on solving insolvency problems. This time frame is not that long compared to Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka and other developing countries.

This website also gave details on leading and top businessmen of Bangladesh. The names included are Jahurul Islam of Islam Group, Samson H Chowdhury of Square Group, Abul Matlub Ahamed of Nitol-Niloy Group, Salman F Rahman of Beximco Group and Latifur Rahman of Transcom Group.
