Major risks to sustainability and steady growth of the Bangladesh's readymade garment (RMG) industry involve proper and timely restructuring of this sector, according to participants at a high-profile consultation.
The participants including policy-makers, economists, industry experts, apparel exporters and representatives of development partners suggested focusing on restructuring issues, which they believe would be more difficult to address than the ongoing and future political crisis.
The programme on upgradation and structural transformation of the garment sector was organised by the Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD) in association with London- based DFID- ESRC Growth Research Programme (DEGRP).
