BB caps difference between dollar buying and selling rates at Tk 1

The gap between the buying and selling rates of the dollar against the Bangladesh currency will be a maximum of Tk 1.0, according to the central bank.

Bangladesh Bank took the decision in a meeting with foreign exchange dealers and bankers on Sunday amid a lingering crisis over the supply of the dollar.

“All the banks will follow this spread,” said Bangladesh Bank spokesman Serajul Islam.

The central bank will monitor the trading of the dollar.
