Abdur Rahman Appointed as New MD of Rajshahi Krishi Unnayan Bank

Md. Abdur Rahman has joined Rajshahi Krishi Unnayan Bank (RAKUB) as its new Managing Director (MD). He was appointed to this position through a recent government notification. After taking charge, he held an exchange meeting with the bank's officials and directed them to accelerate the bank's activities.

Md. Abdur Rahman has a long and distinguished career in the banking sector. Before joining RAKUB, he successfully served as the Deputy Managing Director (DMD) of Sonali Bank PLC, the country's largest state-owned commercial bank. He also held various important positions at Rupali Bank. His banking career began in 1988 as a Senior Officer.

Upon taking office, the new MD stated that RAKUB plays a vital role in developing the livelihoods of farmers in the Rajshahi and Rangpur divisions. He assured that measures would be taken to ensure farmers receive loans easily and on time without any harassment. He also promised to improve service quality and bring banking closer to customers.

Bank officials hope that under the leadership of the new MD, Rajshahi Krishi Unnayan Bank will become a more profitable institution. The bank is expected to launch new initiatives to boost the agricultural and rural economy of northern Bangladesh. Retaining customer trust and recovering defaulted loans will be the key challenges for the new administration.
