Governance & Compliance

BMSL Investment Limited is directed by a Board of Directors and run day to day by a management team that answers to it. The Board sets the firm’s direction, oversees its management, and holds the firm to the standard its founding set.

The firm is licensed and regulated by the Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (BSEC) and is regulated by the Bangladesh Bank. Issue management, underwriting and public offering work is carried out under the BSEC, Dhaka Stock Exchange and Chittagong Stock Exchange frameworks, and compliance with those frameworks is part of the mandate, not an addition to it.

Governance here is inherited rather than adopted. The firm was built by a Founding Chairman who had served as the first Deputy Governor-1 of Bangladesh Bank, on a foundation of integrity, prudence and institutional discipline — and that is still the basis on which it expects to be judged.
