Money supply has gone up beyond the government target although the central bank at the start of the current fiscal year vowed to contain credit growth to fight rising inflation.
In its half yearly monetary policy announced in July last year, Bangladesh Bank (BB) targeted to bring down the credit growth to 16 percent by June this year. But instead of coming down, the private sector credit growth that was 24.24 percent in June last year rose to 27.77 percent in November, according to BB statistics.
However, the central bank announces its half yearly monetary policy today, and will continue its previous stance in the next six months, according to a BB official.
BB Governor Atiur Rahman said the central bank will always take required policy decisions.
"Information asymmetry prevails in our developing economy. So, the central bank won't step back in taking the required policy decision," he said at a scholarship awards ceremony of Shahjalal Islami Bank at Bangabandhu International Conference Centre yesterday.
A recent BB analysis on the private sector credit growth shows that the highest growth was in trade and consumer credit. Credit to the trade sector went up by 34 percent, while consumer credit rose 47 percent in September last year.
Of the consumer credit, loans for purchasing flats grew by 64 percent, for consumer goods by 45 percent, and for credit cards 42 percent. However, credit in the industrial sector increased by 17 percent, while credit growth to finance working capital was 13 percent.
In the next monetary policy these will not create any hindrance to the credit flow to the productive sector, but credit to non-productive sector will be discouraged, the BB official said. He said such measures will be taken to contain inflation.
The official said the inflation rate stood at 8.14 percent in November on an average basis, which was 7.31 percent in June 2010. In June 2009 it was 6.66 percent.
To contain inflation, the central bank has already increased the commercial banks' cash reserve requirement (CRR), the BB official said. Such steps will continue to bring down credit growth, he added.
The rise in inflation, however, is not due to money supply. The main cause of the recent rise in inflation is an increase in food prices on the domestic and international markets.
In the first five months of the current fiscal year, import growth jumped 36 percent. The situation was opposite in the same period last year, as it went down 12 percent.
Food grain import increased by 92 percent in the July-November period this fiscal year, compared to the same period a year before.
