Global fuel prices are rising following the conflict that began with US and Israeli strikes on Iran and subsequent tensions around the Strait of Hormuz. For Bangladesh, the impact is significant, with fuel price increases since the Hormuz conflict reaching around 38 percent. This rise occurs while Bangladesh grapples with persistent domestic inflation near 10% and a tax-GDP ratio below 8 percent.
