How to read this list
Bangladesh's banking sector is the largest by number of companies on the DSE. Banks earn from the spread between lending and deposit rates, plus fee income. When evaluating bank stocks, EPS is a key starting metric — but also look at Non-Performing Loans (NPL ratio), Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR), and Return on Equity (ROE) for a complete picture of financial health.
Common questions
- Which bank stocks are the best on the DSE?
- Based on EPS, the top bank stocks are ranked in the table above. For a fuller analysis, also consider return on equity (ROE) and dividend history — both strong indicators of a well-managed bank.
- Why do bank stocks on the DSE tend to underperform?
- Many DSE banks carry high levels of non-performing loans (NPLs) and operate under political lending pressure. Look for banks with NPL ratios below 5% and strong capital adequacy ratios.
- Are bank stocks risky in Bangladesh?
- Compared to pharma or telecom, bank stocks carry higher credit risk — especially smaller private commercial banks. Larger, well-capitalised banks like BRAC Bank or Dutch-Bangla Bank are generally more stable.
