Notes

Per-day figures are ClearingPost conversions of Bangladesh Bank's monthly BEFTN trend table using the Sun–Thu banking week, about 21 business days a month. Monthly volume is volatile: October 2025 carried 28.0M items against a 15–21M range in the surrounding months, so the H2 2025 average should be read with that spike in mind. The Nikash-BEFTN upgrade in November 2023 raised processing capacity from 100K to 4.6M items per hour.
