On 14 April 2026, the foreign exchange market in Bangladesh continues to reflect the country’s growing international trade relations and the significant contribution of its global diaspora. With millions of Bangladeshis living and working abroad, remittance inflows remain a vital pillar supporting the national economy. These inflows, alongside expanding import-export activities, make daily currency fluctuations an important reference for businesses, travellers, and financial institutions alike.
Banks and authorised money exchange houses adjust their rates in response to global currency movements, demand for foreign currencies, and broader macroeconomic trends. The rates listed below provide a snapshot of today’s buying and selling values for major international currencies in the Bangladeshi market.

The US dollar continues to dominate the foreign exchange landscape, serving as the principal benchmark for international trade settlements and remittance conversions. Its relatively stable position underscores continued demand from importers and financial institutions.
The British pound and euro also maintain strong valuations, reflecting steady trade ties with Europe and the United Kingdom, as well as sustained demand from expatriates sending money home. Slight variations between buying and selling rates indicate normal market spreads applied by financial intermediaries.
Regional currencies such as the Saudi riyal and Singapore dollar remain particularly significant due to the large number of Bangladeshi workers in the Middle East and Southeast Asia. Remittance flows from these regions continue to play a crucial role in supporting household incomes and foreign exchange reserves.
Meanwhile, currencies like the Japanese yen and Indian rupee are traded at comparatively lower values in the local market, reflecting both their exchange dynamics and the nature of bilateral trade relationships.
Financial analysts suggest that short-term fluctuations in exchange rates are likely to persist, driven by global interest rate expectations, inflation trends, and geopolitical developments. Market participants are therefore advised to monitor daily updates closely, especially those involved in import-export operations and overseas fund transfers.
Overall, today’s exchange rate movements highlight a broadly stable but responsive currency environment, shaped by both global economic conditions and Bangladesh’s growing integration into international markets.
