DSE warns membership aspirants of forgery

FE Report (September 07, 2010)

Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) has requested individuals/institutions willing to become its member to remain alert to forged dealings, as it has found that some unscrupulous people have asked the DSE membership aspirants to deposit a large amount of money to the central bank, said a DSE press release Monday.

Recently, some dishonest people sent letters to the aspirant DSE members, using fake signature of the DSE president and its official pad, asking them to deposit Tk 225.0 million to the central bank, which is grossly illegal.

The DSE also filed a general diary (GD) with Motijheel police station in this regard Monday.

DSE president Shakil Rizvi said, "Membership of the bourse is given only after approval from the DSE board, the highest policy-making body. None can obtain membership without the approval of the board."

Finance ministry has recently imposed some conditions for obtaining DSE membership. According to the conditions, an interested candidate will have to take clearance certificates from National Board of Revenue (NBR) and from Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC).

Then, the person will have to submit Tk 225 million to the central bank along with the clearance certificates of NBR and ACC. Finally, the BB money receipt will have to be submitted to the DSE with the membership application.
