Bangladesh Bank has amended its Prudential Regulations for Consumer Financing to increase auto loan limits and standardize personal loan tenures while removing a prior growth rate restriction. The revised regulations raise the individual auto loan cap to Taka 80 Lac for electric, hybrid, and domestically manufactured vehicles, adjusting the maximum debt-equity ratio to 80:20 for these categories. Additionally, the maximum tenure for personal loans and consumer durable financing is set at eight years, with the directive taking immediate effect.
