The Bangladesh Bank has issued Circular No. 02 to establish a Tk 3,000 Crore refinance scheme aimed at creating an agricultural-based economic hub in North Bengal. The scheme provides refinancing to primary agricultural credit institutions for four specific categories: agricultural production, post-harvest management, agro-processing, and livestock feed. It mandates a 4% base refinancing rate, allows for additional incentives up to 9%, and sets specific repayment tenors ranging from 18 to 36 months depending on the investment category.
