NRBC Bank hosted a workshop at its head office in the capital on Monday, 2 June, to raise awareness about financial literacy and promote economic inclusion among marginalised communities.
The event focused on findings from a recently concluded field-level survey in the Sundarbans area, which explored rural financing patterns, barriers to formal banking, challenges in credit disbursement, and the role of informal lending mechanisms. The survey also offered policy recommendations to improve access to finance for underserved populations, a recent press release said.
Dr Touhidul Alam Khan, Managing Director and CEO of NRBC Bank, attended the event as chief guest. Other participants included Harunur Rashid, Deputy Managing Director of NRBC Bank; Samir Karki, Country Director of iDE; Selina Shelly Khan, Chief of Party of the NABAPALLAB Project; Faisal Ahmed, Senior Technical Advisor at iDE; Dr Md Zakaria of iDE; and Kazi Md Shafayet Kabir, Head of Retail and Financial Inclusion at NRBC Bank.
