The frequent and significant price adjustments of Gold and Silver in Bangladesh, driven by local and international market dynamics and geopolitical tensions, create volatility for investors and consumers in the precious metals and jewellery industries. The record high prices followed by sharp declines indicate an unpredictable market, impacting consumer purchasing power and the profitability of businesses like Bangladesh Jewellers Association members.

Jewellery Precious metals

Gold prices in Bangladesh have experienced extreme volatility throughout 2026, with the Bangladesh Jewellers Association (Bajus) making numerous adjustments. Prices reached a record high of Tk286,001 per bhori for 22-carat Gold on January 29, followed by two consecutive sharp reductions totaling over Tk30,000. Subsequent adjustments included both increases and decreases, with prices falling by Tk2,216 per bhori on February 17 and rising by Tk3,266 per bhori on March 31. These fluctuations are attributed to changes in pure Gold prices in local and international markets, as well as global geopolitical tensions involving Iran, the United States, and Israel. Silver prices have also seen adjustments, though less frequently than Gold. By March 28, Gold prices had been adjusted 48 times in 2026, reflecting a highly dynamic market.
