Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina  invited the businessmen of the United States with the assurance of best possible policy framework to take up the investment friendly atmosphere here in Bangladesh.

The Premier made this invitation during a meeting with the visiting first ever executive business delegation, US-Bangladesh Business Council, at her official residence Ganabhaban.

“With strong prospect, I will now assure you of the best possible policy framework to ease our business and investment climate,” she said.

Sheikh Hasina said that she believes that the US companies will take the advantage and invest more in potential sectors like power and energy, ICT, infrastructure, light engineering products, mobile phone and electronic goods, automobile, agro-processing, pharmaceuticals, and ceramics.

“I am sure that you would be able to understand the congenial atmosphere and feel confidence for your potential investment in Bangladesh,” she said. She mentioned that Bangladesh is now recognized for the state-of-the-art manufacturing factories in various sectors like RMG, leather, plastic, jute, ICT and agro-processing.

She said “It is our ‘time’ now and please make your ‘time’ taking opportunities of our conducive investment regime.” The Prime Minister said that she believes that the US-Bangladesh Energy Taskforce which was launched in September 2021 will help advance energy cooperation among the stakeholders of both countries.

Likewise, the proposed US-Bangladesh Digital Economy Taskforce will contribute to deepen the cooperation of companies of both countries to ensure sustainable development, she noted.
