![]() Also, exporters accepted orders at lower prices and shipped them on time, adds Hassan.Įxporters also upgraded their technology, production capacity, and product quality, which helped gain more orders, Hassan explains. One reason, Bangladesh managed to increase exports in 2021 was the ability of manufacturers to keep factories operational during the year. Despite, pandemic-related challenges, exporters showed tremendous resilience and efforts to boost business. Exports of both knitwear and woven garments grew 40 percent year-over-year. This was the highest ever single-month apparel export achieved by the country. In January 2021, Bangladesh’s apparel export earnings grew 42.71 percent to $4.08 billion, says a Textile Today report. Lower prices, on-time delivery boost orders During the year, Bangladesh’s exports of woven products also surged 22.46 percent to $16.21 billion, says Faruque Hassan, President, BGMEA. The surge in apparel export earnings was dominated by knitwear exports that rose 37.72 percent to $19.59 billion compared to $14.22 billion in the same period last year. The country’s earnings from apparel exports surpassed Vietnam’s export earnings of $32.75 billion, reveals the General Statistics Office. In 2021, Bangladesh’s apparel export earnings grew 30.36 percent to $35.81 billion. On the other hand, the export of woven garments surged 27.23 percent to $10.71 billion. Knitwear exports surged 32.89 percent to $13.27 billion. Latest Export Promotion Bureau (EPB) statistics show Bangladesh’s apparel exports surged 30.30 percent to $23.99 billion from July to January 2021-22. In terms of percentage, the export earnings in January 2023 increased by 5.89 percent compared to January 2022.BANGLADESH REGAINS GLOBAL POSITION AS THE SECOND LARGEST RMG EXPORTERīangladesh is back to being the world’s second-largest apparel exporter.

Besides, the increase in demand for our clothes among European buyers is attributed to the quality of Bangladeshi clothes,” he added. And this has been possible due to increase in green factories in Bangladesh. “According to Eurostat data, buyers from Europe are still leaning towards Bangladesh. In other words, there has been a record growth in Bangladesh’s garment exports in the European market.” But Bangladesh is the first in the world in terms of growth. Mohiuddin Rubel told Bangladesh Post, “China continues to hold the title of the largest apparel supplier to the EU with a 29.40 percent share.

The same is done for satellites, so there’s certainly increasing practical demand for gold on this front. Gold is also used to apply a thin coating to spacesuit visors to protect astronauts from excessive solar exposure. You will probably find tiny bits of gold on exceptionally high-quality computers. Practicality: As it happens, gold is a great electric conductor and is used in computing hardware.The metal’s use in various fashion, jewellery and other consumer industries obviously impact gold prices. Fashion: Gold is primarily a fashion emblem and has been for a long time.There are two main drivers of commercial market influence on gold prices: In terms of gold sitting in vaults, nations like the US, Germany, Switzerland, and India have some of the largest gold reserves in the world. More such agreements have been signed since. In 1999, many European central banks signed the Central Bank Gold Agreement (CBGA), one that limits the amount of gold that can be sold each year. This was once a well-kept secret, though, in recent years, more of us have come to learn that not all mined and refined gold is released to the open market. It may come as a surprise that gold, like many other markets, has controlled supply and demand. In any case, when such extreme upheavals of the natural environment come about, gold prices tend to move along with them. Hurricanes, tornadoes, tsunamis, or even wildfires can be a threat, although as technology advances, gold mining operators plan and execute craftier precautions. Earthquakes are perhaps the greatest threat to gold mines and extraction operations and they can hinder the expected gold output. When we talk of environmental factors affecting gold prices, we can look at directly observable phenomena, like the weather. So, the amount of gold released to retail and commercial markets is decided by the governing bodies that hold regulatory authority over the gold market. Much of the stock-control of gold is determined by socio-political factors. If all newly supplied gold was released for consumers to buy, there would be too much gold, and the value would plummet. Economic: After gold is mined and processed, there is another factor to understand before it comes to the open consumer market.The mining technology at our disposal to do extract gold.The amount of gold we’re able to extract from natural rocky formations.What we do know, is that with the advancement of various mining technologies, we keep extracting gold, and the amount of “new” gold that comes to the market is determined by: ![]() Gold takes a long time to form, and we still don’t exactly know how it comes into existence. Environmental and Technological: Since gold is a natural resource found within rocky formations, accessable supply is limited.However, there are two foundational pillars you need to understand to get a grasp of gold’s role in the economy. When you ask people about what the main factors are that move gold prices, you’ll get a broad range of answers. ![]() ![]() Storage technology has changed a lot over the last 20 years, and modifying HFS+ to keep pace with those changes has proven increasingly difficult.

Every time you look for a file, open a file, move a file, save a file or delete a file, it's the filesystem that is fulfilling that action. The file system also keeps track of how many files you have and how much space they consume.

But that same rule applies to all regions – in the U.S. To ensure he got the story right, Patrik went back a second time. What we found was a portrait not of policies or legislative bills, but of an underlying mental landscape and how that has led to higher rates of violence.

And within these trends, one sticks out for its clarity and constancy: The American South has dramatically higher levels of violence. There is no single “gun violence problem” in the United States, but different challenges in different places. Rather, it is a product of the subject: the roots of violence. American conversations about gun violence – particularly mass shootings – often revolve around gun laws and mental health.But the closer we looked, the more we saw something else.
