The Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (BSEC) has invited three major conglomerates – Meghna Group, City Group, and PHP Group – to list their companies on the stock exchanges.
The stock market regulator held a meeting on Monday at its headquarters in the capital, for which the commission issued a press release on Tuesday.
At the meeting, Mostafa Kamal, chairman and managing director of Meghna Group of Industries; Md Hasan, managing director of City Group; and Mohammed Akther Parvez, director of PHP Group, were present.
BSEC Chairman Khondoker Rashed Maqsood said, “The BSEC will continue to invite fundamentally-strong companies to enhance the quality stocks of the capital market.
“The inclusion of such companies is expected to improve investors’ confidence by providing a broader selection of reliable stocks.”
He added, “These three groups have made significant contributions to the economy, with diverse business operations across several sectors. Listing of fundamentally-strong companies would offer investors access to a wider range of quality stocks.”
BSEC commissioners Md Mohsin Chowdhury, Md Ali Akbar, and Farzana Lalarukh were also present at the meeting.
