As in earlier years, the IRBD FY2010-11 volume of CPD highlights major developments in the economy of Bangladesh, and flags emerging challenges confronting macroeconomic management for the relevant fiscal years. The present volume in its various chapters presents an assessment of Bangladesh’s macroeconomic performance in FY2010-11, and identifies the major achievements and the emerging pressure points at the end of fiscal year; an analysis of the national budget for FY2011-12 and the revised budget of FY2010-11; a critical assessment of the Monetary Policy Statement of the Bangladesh Bank for the second half of FY2010-11; and an analytical review of the overseas migration and inwards remittance flow situation with focus on the first six months of FY2011-12. It also contains a Policy Brief prepared under a joint study with BRAC Advocacy Unit to examine the efficacy of fiscal measures and public service delivery for the ultra poor. Two annexes of the volume include dialogue reports on national budget reaction for FY2011-12, one held in Dhaka, and the other in Chittagong in collaboration with Bangladesh Economic Association (BEA), Chittagong Chapter.
