Common questions
What affects the scope of a monthly accounting package?
Transaction volumes, entities, systems, currencies, reporting frequency, record quality and the responsibilities assigned to each party.
Is audit preparation the same as an independent audit?
No. Preparing records and coordinating an audit is distinct from performing an independent audit. The responsible professional and scope should be clearly identified.

Foreign ownership in Bangladesh
Build a business you can fully own.
100% foreign ownership
Available in eligible sectors
100% foreign ownership is permitted in most sectors in Bangladesh. An eligible business can establish a wholly foreign-owned company without a local equity partner.
Eligibility depends on the business activity. Reserved or restricted activities, sector-specific ownership rules, licences and regulatory approvals must be checked before incorporation or investment.
Do I need a local shareholder?
For an activity eligible for wholly foreign-owned incorporation, a local equity partner is not generally required. The proposed activities and applicable sector rules must be reviewed first. Ownership eligibility does not replace company registration, operating licences or other required approvals.
