BANGLADESH - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
Bangladesh's economy has
grown roughly 6% per year since 1996 despite political instability, poor infrastructure,
corruption, insufficient power supplies, slow implementation of economic
reforms, and the 2008-09 global financial crisis and recession. Although more
than half of GDP is generated through the service sector, almost half of
Bangladeshis are employed in the agriculture sector with rice as the
single-most-important product. Garment exports, the backbone of Bangladesh’s
industrial sector and 80% of total exports, surpassed $21 billion last year,
18% of GDP. The sector has remained resilient in recent years amidst a series
of factory accidents that have killed over 1,000 workers and crippling strikes
that shut down virtually all economic activity. Steady garment export growth
combined with remittances from overseas Bangladeshis, which totaled almost $15
billion and 13% of GDP IN 2013, are the largest contributors to Bangladesh’s
current account surplus and record foreign exchange holdings
