The Ministry of Finance of Bangladesh (Bengali:অর্থ মন্ত্রণালয়,romanized: Artha Montronaloy) is a ministry of theGovernment of Bangladesh responsible for financial management, economic policy, and fiscal administration. It serves as the principal government body overseeing the country’s budget, taxation, public expenditure, and financial regulations.[2][3]
Critics have raised concerns aboutexecutive overreach by secretaries in the banking and revenue sectors, alleging their involvement in financial mismanagement.[4][5] These issues reportedly include large-scale bank loan fraud, money laundering schemes, and the politicization of financial institutions. Such systemic problems have allegedly contributed to substantial capital flight, with reports estimating that up to $240 billion has been illicitly transferred abroad over the past 15 years.[6]
