BDT Market Update
29 Jun 2026 • 00:39 GMT
The Bangladeshi Taka (BDT) has fallen to its lowest levels against the US dollar in 60 days, trading near 0.008123 today. This marks a slight move below its three-month average and reflects the ongoing strength of the USD, which is nearing a peak amid expectations of a potential US interest rate hike later this year. The dollar remains supported by positive US economic data and rising US yields, keeping pressure on the BDT and other regional currencies.
Against major currencies, the BDT is above its recent average against the euro and the British Pound, showing some resilience there, but overall the dollar's strength continues to weigh on the taka. The USD's rally is driven by confidence in tighter US monetary policy, and traders are watching upcoming data for clues on further movements.
While the BDT remains within a stable trading range overall, traders should stay alert as US dollar momentum may change if signs of a slowdown or shifts in US policy emerge. For now, expect the BDT to stay under downward pressure against the dollar, with possible stabilization in its cross-rates against regional currencies.
