Participants at the annual general meeting of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) held in Egypt.

Bangladesh will get $4.5 billion from the China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) in the next five years, according to a press release of the finance ministry.

The ministry said that the funds will be spent on climate-related projects and other sectors in the country.

However, the government has urged the AIIB to loosen the loan's requirements.

Bangladesh has so far received loans totaling $3.27 billion from the AIIB for 18 projects.
