The Banking Policy and Regulation Department (BRPD) directs all scheduled banks operating in Bangladesh to implement specific fire prevention and safety measures at their business centers and other establishments following recent fire incidents. Banks are required to strengthen security, engage experts for risk assessments, ensure the functionality of smoke/heat detection and fire suppression systems, conduct fire drills, and install CCTV cameras in critical areas. Additionally, banks must strictly adhere to the directives outlined in BRPD Circular No. 07/2015 and BRPD Circular Letter No. 17/2023.
