1. Export-Anchored Growth
Bangladesh’s RMG (Ready-Made Garments) sector created steady dollar inflows. Unlike speculative borrowing, exports insulated the Taka from sudden external shocks.
2. Women as Economic Infrastructure
Female labor participation—especially in textiles—was not a social slogan; it was macroeconomic policy. This widened the tax base, stabilized consumption, and reduced dependency ratios.
3. Political Alternation as Signal
Even when sidelined or placed under house arrest, Khaleda Zia symbolized electoral alternation—a signal to investors that Bangladesh was larger than any single ruler.
Markets price continuity of rules, not continuity of rulers.
