EU is Bangladesh’s main trading partner, accounting for around 24% of Bangladesh’s total trade in 2015. Bangladesh was the EU’s 35th largest trading partner in goods during the year. EU imports from Bangladesh are dominated by clothing, accounting for over 90% of EU’s total imports. EU exports to Bangladesh are dominated by machinery and transport equipment (49%). From 2008 to 2015, EU’s imports from Bangladesh have almost trebled from €5,464 million to €15,145 million, which represents nearly half of Bangladesh’s total exports.

This will provide the opportunity to our bankers to interact with their EU counterparts on the practices followed by the EU countries for international trade finance as well as discuss on some cases.
