Nordic ambassadors and businesses suggested improving business environment for the companies already operating in Bangladesh to attract more investments from the Nordic countries.
"Improving the business and investment climate for the companies already present in the country will send a clear signal to others, waiting to bring their products, know-how and investment into the market," said Swedish Ambassador Alex Berg von Linde.
Bangladesh has the potential to be a competitive and modern business destination, she said while speaking on behalf of the Nordic embassies in Bangladesh at a webinar organised by the Nordic Chamber of Commerce and Industry (NCCI) in Bangladesh. Linde said the Nordic countries remain committed to their partnership with Bangladesh to strengthen the possibilities of their companies to be agents for sustainable development in Bangladesh.
Salman F Rahman, private sector industry and investment adviser to the prime minister, in his speach said "Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's idea of Sonar Bangla, a fairer and prosperous country, bear resemblances to the Nordic success in the creation of more equitable and robust economies". He mentioned that as the Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has set the target to transform Bangladesh into a developed nation—the culmination of Sonar Bangla—by 2041, the government places the highest importance on the attraction of FDIs and diversifying export basket.
