EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The aim of the study is to present the current scenario of the
pharmaceutical industry in Bangladesh. Since inception, there was little
consensus on the development of pharmaceutical policies best suited in a
developing country such as Bangladesh. Here, the pharmaceutical
industry developed rapidly from the 1980s after the introduction of Drug
(Control) Ordinance-1982. Adequate infrastructure and use of trained
manpower were two essential requisites for implementation of national
pharmaceutical policies in Bangladesh. The country was importing
significant amount of medicine and also raw materials for the industry
from abroad. But the industry has started to export its products in
foreign market, especially in the Middle East and Europe with great
success. This study tries to identify the major problems of marketing,
exporting, production and operations, quality control in the
pharmaceutical sector and proposes strategies to overcome these
problems, it also identifies the prospects of pharmaceutical industry in
Bangladesh.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The paper is about risk management practices of commercial banks in
Bangladesh based on five commercial banks operating in Bangladesh. The
number of respondents was 25, five from each bank. While collecting the
requisite data, five points Likert Scale has been used. The objective of
the study was to critically examine risk management practices of
Bangladeshi banks i.e., types of risk facing a bank, procedure and
techniques used to minimize the risk etc. The study also examines how
far the banks follow the guidelines of Bangladesh Bank regarding risk
management. The study reveals that credit risk, market risk and
operational risk are the major risks to the bankers which are managed
through three layers of management system. The Board of Directors
performs the responsibility of the main risk oversight, the Executive
Committee monitors risk and the Audit Committee oversees all the
activities of banking operations. In the context of opinions regarding
use of risk management techniques, it is found that internal rating
system and risk adjusted rate of return on capital are relatively more
important techniques used by banks.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This paper investigates the determinants of perceived service quality
among the customers of domestic and foreign banks in Dhaka, Bangladesh
using a modified version of SERVQUAL model. It finds that in general the
foreign banks provided marginally better measures in most of the
dimensions than did the domestic banks. For domestic private banks
reliability, communication, credibility, security, and tangibility are
found to be significantly affecting the service quality. On the other
hand, for foreign banks, reliability, credibility, and tangibility are
the only significant factors affecting their service quality.
