Economic Analysis
Overall economic overview of Bangladesh: Bangladesh remains a poor, overpopulated, and inefficiently-
governed nation. The economy has grown 5-6% per year since 1996 despite political instability, poor
infrastructure, corruption, insufficient power supplies, and slow implementation of economic reforms.
Although more than half of GDP is generated through the service sector, 45% of Bangladeshis are
employed in the agriculture sector, with rice as the single-most-important product. Bangladesh's growth
was resilient during the 2008-09 global financial crisis and recession. On the expenditure side, private
consumption accounts for about three-quarters of GDP while investment accounts for about one-quarter
of GDP. Bangladesh’s net imports of goods and services are equivalent to a deficit of about 7% of GDP
