Amid the sudden surge in Covid-19 infections and death in recent days in the country, the securities regulator on Monday issued a circular stating that the stock market will remain open as long as the banking system operates.
The Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (BSEC) said it has taken this decision considering the interest of the investors.
It said the rumour of closing or suspending operations of the exchanges in the wake of the rising rate of infection of covid-19 is totally baseless.
