According to Bangladesh Bank, from July 1, 2024, to June 28, 2025, Bangladeshi expatriates sent a record $30.04 billion, marking a strong 26.5 % growth compared to the previous fiscal year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In FY2023\u201324, remittance earnings stood at $23.28 billion. This year\u2019s sharp rise reflects a renewed trust in the banking system and increased use of formal channels by migrant workers. It also indicates stronger monitoring by the central bank and streamlined services for sending money home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The month of June alone brought in $2.53 billion within just 28 days, compared to $2.37 billion in June last year. Remittance flows remained consistently strong throughout the fiscal year, with the highest monthly receipt recorded in March at $3.29 billion. Except for July, all other months crossed the $2 billion mark\u2014a significant indicator of steady financial contributions from overseas workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bangladesh Bank Governor Dr Ahsan H Mansur, earlier in June, expressed optimism that remittance would hit the $30 billion target. He attributed this performance to policy improvements, banking reforms, and better digital infrastructure. His forecast has now been proven correct, just two days before the fiscal year ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This historic achievement not only boosts the country's foreign exchange reserves but also reflects the unwavering support of migrant workers\u2014many of whom live in challenging conditions abroad, yet continue to send their hard-earned money to families back home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For millions of households, remittance is not just a number\u2014it pays for children\u2019s education, family healthcare, and daily essentials. The $30 billion figure is a tribute to the silent strength of Bangladesh\u2019s workforce abroad. As the country eyes further growth, this milestone sets a new benchmark in national economic resilience and diaspora engagement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Md Tarek Hossain: Bangladesh has achieved a remarkable financial milestone as remittance inflows crossed $30 billion for the first time in history.
