Bangladesh: Bangladesh, Switzerland to discuss ways to develop mechanism

DHAKA, 17 August 2022, (TON): Bangladesh and Switzerland are in touch to develop a mechanism for exchange of information to avoid any misunderstanding and confusion between the two sides.

Foreign Secretary Masud Bin Momen said “they are in touch with the Swiss Embassy in Dhaka and Switzerland’s administrative capital Bern as there is a proposal to that end from the Swiss side.”

The decision to develop such a mechanism came amid confusions over deposits of Bangladeshi money in the Swiss banks and whether Bangladesh has sought information from the Swiss authorities or not.

The Foreign Secretary said the government wants to make sure that there is no illicit transfer of funds.

Responding to a question, he said the mechanism is primarily for the exchange of information.
