Provenance & notes
PKSF is an apex/wholesale microfinance financing body established in 1990 by the Government of Bangladesh as a not-for-profit company (Companies Act 1913/1994, registered with RJSC); it lends to ~200+ partner MFIs rather than directly to borrowers, so it is not itself MRA-licensed (mra_licensed left null). Md Fazlul Kader is the current Managing Director. Cumulative and annual disbursement figures appear in sources but are not entered as loan_portfolio_bdt since PKSF is a wholesale lender, not a retail MFI portfolio holder.
