The IMF expects growth in world trade to decline from 9.4 percent in 2006 to 2.1 percent in 2009.The expected decline will come through a combination of lower commodity price, a reduction in demand for their goods from advanced economies and less tourism. Bangladesh is relatively insulated from the severe fallout of the global financial crisis because of limited international exposure. However, it will not remain totally unaffected. Exports and remittances are expected to fall in the short to medium term with attendant domestic repercussions in the balance of payments. A large-scale fiscal stimulus is beyond the reach of a developing country like Bangladesh due to revenue shortage, fiscal imbalance and lack of institutional capacity. Short-term measures to address the situation include recapitalizing bank, streamlining the regulatory and supervisory capacity of the central bank and encouraging merger and acquisition which would help consolidate the financial sector. Monetary policy should be accommodative while containing inflation through better demand management policies and reduce the infrastructure spending and expansion of social safety nets. On the trade side, Bangladesh should lobby for more open markets abroad and keep its markets open for investment by foreigners and expatriate nationals.
