Standard Chartered Bank has been operating in Bangladesh for over a hundred years.[1] After the partition of the subcontinent in 1947, Bangladesh became East Pakistan, thereafter SCB started its business in 1948, in the port city of Chittagong. Standard Chartered Bank is doing exceptionally well in Bangladesh.
Today the bank is spread all over the country and is arguably the largest foreign bank in Bangladesh. It has branches in Bogra, Chittagong, Dhaka, Khulna, Savar and Sylhet. They have ATM booths almost all over Dhaka and Chittagong. Standard Chartered Bangladesh has bought out the Bangladesh operations of various other foreign banks such as Grindlays Bank[2] and American Express.[3]
