The Statistics Department of the Bangladesh Bank mandates that all finance companies operating in Bangladesh submit the NBFI-2 (Deposits) and NBFI-3 (Loans) returns using an updated format that includes Unique ID and Date of Birth fields. This requirement applies to the quarterly returns for January–March 2024 and subsequent periods, with the directive taking immediate effect under Section 38(1) of the Finance Companies Act, 2023. The updated templates, T_ME_Q_DEPO_CLS_V2 and T_ME_Q_LNA_V2, require specific identification details such as NID, Smart Card, Birth Registration, or Passport numbers for individuals, while institutions must leave these fields blank.
