BRPD-1 Circular Letter No. 23: Special Exit Policy for Recovery/Settlement of Loans
Bangladesh Bank's Banking Regulation and Policy Department-1 has issued BRPD-1 Circular Letter No. 23, introducing a special exit policy for the recovery and settlement of non-performing loans (NPLs) classified as bad and loss as of June 30, 2026. This policy allows eligible borrowers to repay all liabilities in a single installment, with relaxed conditions for interest waivers, aiming to reduce NPLs and boost banks' capacity for new loan disbursement. Priority for this special exit facility is given to short-term agricultural loans and cottage, micro, and small loans in the CMSME sector, with the instructions remaining effective until December 31, 2026.
