Chairman Message of ABB

It is with great pride that I present this message on behalf of the Association of Bankers Bangladesh Limited (ABB), an institution that continues to stand as a cornerstone of unity and collaboration within the banking community of our nation.

Over the years, ABB has evolved into a respected and trusted platform that bridges banks with key regulatory and policy-making bodies, including Bangladesh Bank, Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (BSEC), Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Law, National Board of Revenue (NBR), and other relevant organizations. In every interaction, ABB seeks to uphold transparency, stability, and innovation within the financial ecosystem.

Our mission has always been clear: to foster an environment where banking institutions not only grow individually but also contribute collectively to the economic development of Bangladesh. Whether through policy advocacy, timely recommendations, or responding to critical challenges, ABB has consistently worked to enhance the resilience and capacity of the sector.

We take pride in the recognition and trust we have earned over time, especially during moments of uncertainty and crisis. It is in these moments that our role as a facilitator and problem-solver becomes most evident. Looking ahead, ABB remains committed to its guiding principles and to promoting long-term policy solutions that ensure the sector remains robust, inclusive, and forward-looking.

I extend my sincere gratitude to all member banks, regulators, and partners for their unwavering support. Together, we will continue to shape a stronger, more dynamic banking landscape for the future of Bangladesh.

Best Regards,

Mashrur Arefin
Chairman
Association of Bankers Bangladesh Limited (ABB)
