Banks to return to normal working hours from Wednesday

Banking operation returns to normalcy from Wednesday (Aug 11) as the government looks to partially reopen the economy despite a surge in infection of coronavirus.

Banks had to cut opening hours in April this year after the caseloads of the Covid-19 began rising alarmingly, forcing the government to impose a countrywide strict restriction and lockdown.

The government is now easing restrictions from Wednesday allowing public transport to move.

Bangladesh Bank issued a circular on Monday (Aug 9) saying that all the branches and offices would be kept open on Wednesday.

Bank transactions will continue from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., said a press release.

The banks will also remain open till 6 p.m.
