The committee to search deputy governors for Bangladesh Bank will invite applications for the post on Sunday next, with a deadline for submission by April 13.
The decision was taken at the first meeting of the committee held at the central bank headquarters yesterday, chief of the five-member body Qazi Kholiquzzaman Ahmad told journalists after the meeting.
“We have discussed over the application requirements,” he said.
On March 15, the government had sacked two deputy governors – Naznin Sultana and Abul Kashem soon after the resignation of Atiur Rahman over the cyber heist.
On the following day, the search committee was formed to find two DGs for the central bank.
Some incumbent and retired executive directors of Bangladesh Bank and managing directors of the commercial banks are expected to apply for the position, a senior central banker said.
After firing, Finance Minister AMA Muhith said two deputy governors were relieved of their responsibilities and fresh appointments would be made in these two posts shortly.
