IMF left Bangladesh without any decision on the release of next tranches of a loan.

The International Monetary Fund has deferred the release of the fourth tranche of the $4.7 billion loan to June instead of March as Bangladesh could not meet some prior conditions.

Bangladesh is on track to meet all 12 conditions set by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to qualify for the fourth tranche of a $4.7 billion loan programme, only missing the revenue collection target.
