DHAKA, April 1, 2026 (BSS) - Bangladesh's financial sector achieved a 
historic milestone as remittance inflows surged to a record-breaking US$3.75 
billion in March 2026, the highest monthly figure ever recorded in the 
nation's history.

According to data released by Bangladesh Bank today, the March 2026 
performance represents a significant leap over previous peaks, comfortably 
eclipsing the prior record of $3.29 billion established in March 2025.

In March 2026, global remittance performance reached the record high of $3.75 
billion, surpassing the previous high-water marks of $3.29 billion in March 
2025 and $3.22 billion in December 2025.

This unprecedented surge reflects a broader stabilization and growth 
trajectory that gained significant momentum following the political 
transition in late 2024.

The national economy has observed a sustained upward trend in remittance 
inflows since August 2024, following the fall of the previous Awami League 
government. These inflows have demonstrated remarkable resilience in recent 
months, remaining strong despite geopolitical volatility and ongoing unrest 
in parts of the Middle East, a primary hub for the Bangladeshi expatriate 
workforce.

Bangladesh Bank officials have attributed this surge in formal inflows to a 
series of strategic regulatory interventions and more rigorous oversight. 

The central bank has focused on ensuring that foreign earnings are processed 
through legitimate financial institutions to bolster the national reserve.
