Bangladesh Bank directed on Wednesday all the banks and financial institutions to provide SME loans to transgender community, disabled people, underprivileged female entrepreneurs and Rakhaine community members, reports UNB.
The main objective of the step is to take the loan facility to the grassroots level by involving the underprivileged communities in SME loan activities.
A Bangladesh Bank circular, issued by SME and Special Programme Department, said the directives would similarly be applicable to all kinds of facilities being provided under the Bangladesh Bank Fund, New Entrepreneur Fund and Islamic Re-financing Fund.
