Stock-taking on macro economy today

The finance division will review the country's latest macro-economic indicators, especially the monetary policy and exchange rates as the economy had suffered from the second half of the current fiscal year after political turmoil.
The special meeting of the co-ordination council of the finance division under the ministry of finance (MoF) will be held today (Wednesday) at its office at the secretariat.
Finance Minister Abul Maal Abdul Muhith will preside over the meeting, where secretaries of different ministries, leading economists, the chief economist of the Bangladesh Bank and other high officials of the division will attend.
Officials at the finance division said while macro-economic situation has remained more or less stable, monetary targets like credit to the private sector and broad money growth remained low.
