The International Monetary Fund, or IMF, has postponed the visit of its delegation to Dhaka as coronavirus spread shows no sign of slowing down. The Ministry of Finance confirmed the information Thursday.

The International Monetary Fund has initiated a move to assess the tax expenditure in Bangladesh. As part of the move, the IMF team was scheduled to carry out the 'Bangladesh tax expenditure assessment' from March 8 to 19.   

The visit has been postponed because of the coronavirus outbreak, said a ministry letter sent to relevant offices.
