Govt must reassure foreign investors: Bernicat

In the wake of recent terror attacks in Bangladesh US Ambassador in Dhaka Marcia Bernicat on Thursday said the government must work to reassure foreign investor’s security in the country.

She made the statement while talking to a ceremony on ‘Exporting Health to USA, Made in Bangladesh’.

A safe and stable Bangladesh is crucial to attracting further investment and continuing economic growth to reach the middle-income status, she said.

The United States remains Bangladesh’s largest trading partner and all must work together to continue growing two-way trade over the coming years, Bernicat said.

However, she said, the real winners of the growth in two-way trade between the United States and Bangladesh are consumers.
