Provenance & notes
China Exim is a major bilateral lender to Bangladesh; ERD tracks its disbursements (e.g. the USD 2.668 billion Padma Bridge Rail Link preferential buyer's credit signed 27 April 2018, USD ~1.78 billion Patuakhali coal plant syndicated loan 2020, USD 211 million 3G/2.5G telecom credit 2011). No single authoritative cumulative total for all China Exim loans to Bangladesh was verifiable, so cumulative_commitment_usd is null. Modality is concessional/preferential buyer's credit. recent_activity set to null: no dated real event found within the last ~24 months.
