Abstract | Bangladesh had two different exchange rate regimes- a fixed exchange rate system from January 1972-May 2003 and a floating exchange rate regime since June 2003. After adopting the floating exchange rate regime Bangladesh experienced positive impacts on macro economic development. The variables of the macroeconomic factors have been considered as foreign reserve, workers’ remittances and export proceeds to evaluate the impact of exchange rate over them in this paper. But the ongoing challenges for the country are the depreciating trend in local currency in a highly inflationary economy. The objective of the paper is to evaluate the macroeconomic performance over the regimes and to analyze present currency situation of Bangladesh. |
