In this context, the DCCI urged the interim government, political parties and all relevant stakeholders to ensure a peaceful, inclusive and credible election process, as political stability is the key to sustainable economic recovery and investment growth. The Dhaka Chamber believes that a stable political environment during and after the election period will boost the confidence of local entrepreneurs and foreign investors, said a press release. The DCCI also noted that excessive government borrowing from the banking sector could shrink private-sector credit growth. The Dhaka Chamber also underscored the importance of full automation of revenue management, modernization of tax laws, expansion of the tax base and strict measures to prevent harassment of compliant taxpayers. As Bangladesh moves further along its transition from LDC status, the DCCI stressed the need for comprehensive economic preparedness.
