Bangladesh Bank (BB) Governor Dr Ahsan H Mansur said that the central bank will not allow any industries to be closed for the fault of its entrepreneurs.

He said the institutions are national assets. Here, arrangements will be made to run the institutions whether the actual owner is there or not. Because many people are working in these institutions, they (companies) have a relationship with banks as they have a relationship with manufacturing, which cannot be separated.

The governor said this while speaking at a press conference at the central bank headquarters on Monday to brief journalists on the latest update on the banking sector.

He said Islami Bank is a turnaround and the bank collected around Tk5000 crore under the new board of directors restructured by the BB.

Regarding S Alam and Beximco governor said, “We have to look at it from a different perspective. Individuals and institutions are different. But we will also try our best to prevent fund diversion.”

 “I will not allow any industry to be shut down. It is very easy to shut down an industry, but building it is difficult and takes time. The country benefits from the institutions. So, we don't want to fail. We will not allow institutions to fail,” he pointed out.

Meanwhile, the governor said, “Haste or emotion excites people for a short time. But running the country with emotions does not bring good results. I have to be realistic, and bring about change by formulating the right policies and implementing them.”
