The Fiscal Tightrope: Tax-to-GDP Ratio and the National Budget Deficit in Bangladesh

Bangladesh has maintained a remarkable trajectory of economic growth, lifting millions out of poverty and transitioning steadily toward upper-middle-income status. However, beneath this macroeconomic success story lies a persistent structural vulnerability: an exceptionally low tax-to-GDP ratio coupled with a chronic national budget deficit.

As the country navigates evolving global economic conditions, the urgent need to bridge the widening gap between domestic revenue mobilization and public spending has become the central focus of fiscal policy.

Why an Income Tax Practitioner (ITP) License is the Most Recession-Proof Career for Commerce Graduate

The landscape of employment for business graduates in Bangladesh has reached a critical juncture. While thousands of students graduate each year with degrees in Accounting, Finance, and Management, the traditional job market is increasingly saturated. However, a significant opportunity exists within the regulatory framework of the National Board of Revenue (NBR): the Income Tax Practitioner (ITP) License.
The Crisis of Graduate Unemployment

According to recent data from the Labour Force Survey (LFS) 2024, the unemployment rate among tertiary-educated youth in Bangladesh stands at approximately 13.5%. Reports suggest that of the nearly 2.6 million unemployed individuals in the country, approximately 1.38 million are graduates.

Business graduates, in particular, face a unique "skills mismatch." While they possess theoretical knowledge of commerce, the formal banking and corporate sectors cannot absorb the sheer volume of new entrants. This has led to a growing "educated unemployment" crisis, where those with the highest level of education face the toughest path to a stable paycheck.
