Government to Amend Commercial Court Act to Boost and Protect Foreign Investment, Says Attorney General
Senior legal officials and UNDP representatives discussing commercial court reforms to strengthen investor protection in Dhaka.

Attorney General Ruhul Quddus Kazal has announced that the government is moving to amend the Commercial Court Act in order to increase foreign investment and ensure robust legal protection for investors. Speaking at a stakeholder consultation meeting on commercial court reform held at a hotel in Dhaka at noon on Saturday, November 14, 2026—jointly organized by the Ministry of Law and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)—the Attorney General emphasized practical execution over mere legislative expansion, stating that establishing 75 commercial courts across the country is unnecessary and that effective implementation of the law is what truly matters.

Addressing the consultation, UNDP Resident Representative Stephen Rodriguez underscored that beyond capital or physical infrastructure, restoring investor confidence in the rule of law is critical for fostering a conducive investment climate. He stressed that the justice system must be strengthened so investors are assured they can rely on fair and predictable legal recourse whenever adverse commercial situations arise.
