How sound is Bangladesh's banking sector, and where is the stress concentrated?

Where sources disagree

• private-sector credit growth, June 2024: Fsr 2024 9.84; Bb mpr series 10.5. Two Bangladesh Bank publications print different values for the same date; the FSR value agrees with the MEI. Not reconciled here; the two definitions were not compared.

Not held

• Per bank figures: The Financial Stability Report 2024 text and appendices read here give counts and cluster ratios; no bank-by-bank NPL, capital or provision figure is in any pinned source, so no bank is named as distressed.
• Per bank figures: No bank-by-bank ratios are in any pinned source, so the outlier is a cluster (SOCBs), not a named bank. The SOCB Body ids below are the twin objects the cluster figures attach to; the roster's type label is the tracker's, not the FSR's cluster definition.

Caveats

• FSR loan and deposit totals (2024) and the db bb_bank_* series (to 2023) are different definitions; they are shown side by side and never spliced into one growth rate.
• The 2024 gross NPL ratio (20.20%) is the FSR's sector figure; the cluster ratios beside it are the FSR's own cluster definitions (SOCB, PCB, SDB, FCB).
• The Financial Stability Report 2024 source file has no recorded download URL; each row cites the extracted JSON path and its sha256.
