DHAKA, April 6, 2025 (BSS) - Foreign currency reserves have crossed US$25.6 
billion mark at the end of March thanks to a record inflow of remittances 
this month.
 
The country's gross reserves have risen to $25.63 billion, according to data 
released by the Bangladesh Bank (BB) today.
 
The surge came after a significant increase in remittance inflows, which 
reached $3.29 billion in March, the highest for any month in the country's 
history.
 
However, as per the International Monetary Fund (IMF) methodology under the 
Balance of Payments and International Investment Position Manual (BPM6), 
Bangladesh's net reserves currently stand at $20.46 billion.
