Maldives to Operationalise Development Bank in July
The Development Bank of Maldives (DBM) will come into operation in July, as confirmed by Minister of Economic Development and Trade Mohamed Saeed. Saeed said DBM will help mitigate drawbacks in funding development projects, as banks have limited capacity and tourism financing often comes from overseas. Registration completed and work started within the first 100 days of President Muizzu. DBM will get its license from the Maldives Monetary Authority within the next week. DBM was established by President Muizzu on 16 May to invest in sustainable economic and social development, raise funds for infrastructure, address challenges in financing PSIP projects, and attract foreign currency deposits.
