Singapore and Bangladesh have signed a Memorandum of Cooperation on Trade and Investment (MCTI) to deepen their economic relations.

The MCTI will establish a senior officials bilateral working group that will identify initiatives in areas such as renewable energy, logistics, trade facilitation and standards, to increase trade and investment flows.

“The MCTI is a significant milestone in economic cooperation between Bangladesh and Singapore, as we mark 50 years of diplomatic ties. It will help Singapore companies diversify their markets by tapping on the strong growth potential of Bangladesh,” Minister-in-Charge of Trade Relations S Iswaran said.

“Bangladesh is a fast-growing market with economic growth averaging 6% to 7% between 2011 and 2021. It is expected to be among the 30 largest economies in the world by 2030,” he added.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
