Rolls-Royce wants to sell its engines to Bangladesh while Standard Chartered Bank will provide funding.
A high-level business delegation comprised of sales director of Rolls Royce and Standard Chartered Bank Executive Director met Civil Aviation and Tourism Minister Rashed Khan Menon Monday and discussed the prospect of doing business.
“We had a meeting yesterday [Monday]. Rolls Royce wants to sell its engines for the aircraft that we are planning to buy in future,” Rashed Khan Menon told the Dhaka Tribune Tuesday evening.
Standard Chartered Bank would finance it if there is any agreement, he said. The minister said it was the affair of Biman and it would be decided by the board of the airlines.
The Biman technical team would negotiate with the engine manufacturing company and put forward its recommendation to the board, he added.
