New committee to be formed to modernise Dhaka bourse IT department: DSE chairman
A committee will be formed to organise the IT department of the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE), said its new Chairman Dr Hafiz Muhammad Hasan Babu.
During a courtesy call on Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (BSEC) Chairman Professor Shibli Rubayat-Ul Islam, he said the IT department of the DSE should be modernised like in other countries, said a press release.
"We have to automate everything. Our IT must be the number one, not only in Bangladesh's context, but compared to the rest of the world," he said.
