Bangladesh Bank (BB) on Sunday eased a rule over requirement of diploma certificates for bankers to become eligible for promotions.
Bankers who were senior officers prior to the introduction of the rule will not need diplomas to be promoted to the position of principal officers, said the central bank in a circular.
The relaxation comes five months after the central bank formulated the rule stipulating that bankers would have to have a junior associate of the Institute of Bankers, Bangladesh (JAIBB) and diploma associate of the Institute of Bankers, Bangladesh (DAIBB) certificates to get promoted to the next level.
The BB, however, said senior officers shifting to a different workplace in a higher position would require a banking diploma.
