Dhaka, Bangladesh (BBN) - The call money rate moved up slightly on Sunday while the US dollar was stable against the local currency in the inter-bank market, treasury officials said.
The call rate ranged between 6.25 per cent and 8.25 per cent on the day against the previous range between 5.05 per cent and 8.25 per cent. But most of the deals were made at rates between 7.25 per cent and 8.25 per cent on the day, they added.
The US currency was stable against Bangladesh Taka (BDT) due mainly to low demand of the greenback in the inter-bank foreign exchange market.
