Bangladesh Bank (BB) Executive Director and Spokesperson Mezbaul Haque on Tueasday informed that the regulator is planning to merge 10 banks within a year.
“Following the merger, the weak bank can become the strong bank while strong banks can be stronger banks,” he told reporters in a press briefing at BB headquarters in the city.
Mezbaul Haque said BB`s various departments assess different components regularly for financial risk management.
But it is not a real health indicator, he added.
He said, "We developed a Prompt Corrective Action (PCA) framework to classify banks. As a result, banks will be evaluated in four categories. This will be done based on the balance sheet of 2024. It will be implemented from May 2025."
