Bangladesh Faces Debt Crisis, Rising Default Loans

Bangladesh Faces Debt Crisis, Rising Default Loans

Bangladesh is in a tough spot with money problems.

The country has to spend a lot on paying back its debts, which is now the second-biggest expense in its budget.

The money it collects from taxes has also gone down a lot.

This is making it hard for Bangladesh to manage its money well.

The World Bank says Bangladesh's debts have gone up a lot in the last five years, and it's getting harder to pay them back.

Also, many loans in the country are not being paid back, which is causing more problems for the banks and the economy.

Experts say this is because of many issues like unrest, energy problems, high prices, and low wages.
