Abstract

The present paper aimed at reviewing the issues of inflation in the different business sectors of Bangladesh during the last few years. Inflation is the proportion of the cost of goods and services that increases over time. It is a market force that we cannot control, so it's important to have both a proactive and reactive strategy. If it is high, it might be better to wait until it drops. This research shows that the effects of inflation on business growth very negative as well as positively in a country over time. The study moreover finds that the outcomes from this study rely upon country-specific qualities, the data index used, and the methodology employed. This is a review survey, in detail, from the existing research on the causes and effects of inflation in the business sector and economic growth in developing countries like Bangladesh.
